I noticed that Message-ID:
from Steve Firth contained the following: please let us know what your hobbies are or how you stay fit, so we can learn how "adults" should behave. I go sailing, in my yacht. Now you're talking. -- Geoff Berrow It's only Usenet, no one dies. My opinions, not the committee's, mine. Simple RFDs http://www.ckdog.co.uk/rfdmaker/ |

There is nothing crass in considering a grown adult who shells out a fortune to slide down a hill to be a retard. As for apres ski, oh please, fat white office bound men and ugly women lounging around in pink and turquoise shell suits while the locals like me and my friends pocket their cash and laugh at them behind their backs. There are few activities for which a similar derogatory rant cannot be devised, posting on unnc included. -- =/\= Lt. Cmdr. Jim =/\= It's only Usenent, everyone dies.

What on earth makes you think I rely on people stupid enough to go skiing for an income? The fact that you said "while the locals like me and my friends pocket their cash" would seem to indicate you benefit from skiers in some way. Come on, if you're going to troll like this you should try and be consistent, it's no fun otherwise. please let us know what your hobbies are or how you stay fit, so we can learn how "adults" should behave. I go sailing, in my yacht. Really. |

Serious point though; if in doubt, why assume the poster is male? I wasn't in doubt. The only "Ali"s I know of are Aly Bain, Ally Maccoist and Ali Ross. [1] I use a gender neutral style of writing if I cannot be sure of the poster's gender. Serious question for you - what is the correct title for a woman if you don't know whether or not she's married? Married women are offended by Miss, single women are offended by Mrs and nearly eveyone seems to dislike Ms. "Dr" always seems to go down well :-) -- John Briggs |
