Im sorry Rob, But if I were to do that, then I would never post on critique again
Like hell, as I have CLEARLY stated, the facts I have found took me a very small amount of time to find and paste into this window. In fact typing my opinions to accompany them took me longer.
Unlike yourself and undoubtedly many others of these fine forums, I don’t have the time to Methodically search out and refine various quotes, facts and figures.
Once again you're just bullshitting, you're just not willing to find facts and figures to support your arguement because you know there aren't enough conclusive figures to support some of your outlandish claims. Stop trying to disguise a lack of effort with a lack of ability, you're quite capable of using Google and other such internet resources, and even more capable of looking in relevant books. What you're fobbing us of with are just half arsed excuses.
I only come here so I can have light-hearted banter with like minded people about subjects I am interested in.
As Storm said, you've called us idiot liberals and other such things. What you mean is you come here to express your opinions, no matter how unsupported and inaccurate they are, and in doing so you simply expect your opposition to be the ones being light-hearted to your claims. Well, we're not just going to sit back and allow you to claim urban myth as 'common concensus' or claim pure bullshit as 'fact'. If you're not willing to cope with supported and fair opposition then you're probably best elsewhere.
I fear to log on for worry about being torn to shreds for lack of knowledge or fact about a subject.
If you have no knowledge, or facts about a subject then WHY do you claim to have some higher state of understanding on it, by making claims that are absurd and then acting so horrified when we object. All of this stems from you being totally unable to take criticism, and opposition to what you say. Oliver, you are not a higher authority on subjects, you don't have any advantages to the average person on the subjects you claim to know so much about (as the railway discussion has proved), you're just full of ego and afraid of opposition to the point where you are running away to avoid admitting defeat. We've all said that if you just acted like a man and admitted you were wrong then we would have more respect for you, but rather than do so then you persisted and now you're going to the extent of leaving the forum to avoid having to admit defeat.
I think I shall frequent a more suitable forum (http://www.sheridanclub.co.uk/) as an alternative
Have fun discussing how we should replace fox hunting with Chav hunting, and the latest designer pipes. If you ever decide to engage in sensible, structuredand serious round table discussion then you know where to find us. Don't expect anyone to weep for you here...
