Why would you want to call someone a jerk and not mean it?
Thats funny is it?
Your ability to be condescending exceeds both your ability
argue a rigourous case and on the face of it, to make people laugh.
Your base assumption, despite the abcence of smilleys in my proposition, was that I agreed with it. This is not consistent with the thesis you put forward, and may well therefor be ill founded.

Cheers, Jopo.

1. I take back all I said about Rubrick fixing the wide post. It was only just a matter of a different browser -- in IE it's still reallllllllly wide.

Thanks, tsuwm. When I originally posted it was slightly wider than the screen width. Now it seems to be inordinately long thanks to jopublic's very mature post of a line of dots.

May I site your coments as evidence for the proposition?

Wow, jopublic. You write just like this Chicago so-called lawyer I know. Are you related to him?

Do you stay up all night writing your posts or do you just write them when the Chicago Internet cafés are open?

You're a thinker (or so you say). Ponder that.

One of them
had read of a study
in which it had been
proven--
as such studies seem
always to be able to prove--
that one could
predict
the average Eye Cue
of the group
by the number of times
EACH member laughed
during a
set time
of intercourse. Dear WW: was this a study by Masters and Johnson?


Dear wwh,

I don't know whose study it was, wwh. I doubt it was Masters and Johnson. Don't think their interest lay primarily with either laughter or Eye Cue.

Test regards,
WW

Yeah, get Rube to edit the occasional space into his smiley barricade!

'Tis done. Just that annoying line of dots left between us and a normal width thread.

Hang on a sec here, Jo - you're a Brit and a Liverpudlian and you're claiming not to understand irony? And also not to know the difference between being genuinely offensive and ribbing close friends?

Guaranteed that either you're on a major wind-up or you're not what you say you are in your profile. Which is it?

How could I resist such charm and eloquence and I was so pleased to see you did it without the use of even one smiley. Well done. Jopo.
