Apology to the Poly Posters

[Solomwi]

Don't let the door hit you on the way out.

If you wanted to be taken seriously, bud, you picked the wrong ****ing thread to get involved in. You were about as intelligent as the colonial powers were divvying up Africa and West Asia, coming in with your "best intentions" (on your deluded part) and stepping into a field where bad blood has been spilled between the active parties for years.

So take your "I'm so polite! I'm just trying to be courteous!" BS, cram it, and either make a fresh start in a new ****ing thread, or GTFO.

Because, really, if you wanted to be truly polite or courteous, you'd've had the good sense not to open your mouth when you don't know what's going on. You'd've also not been so far up on your high horse that you required oxygen tanks.

That was beautiful, Q.

Poly is anything but dynamic.

though it seems to be on an upbeat. either that, or it could just be spring fever or something. i know i've been feeling a bit randy of late.

Let that be a warning to all improbably chested, heavily tattooed, unnatural hair colored dominatrix-types out there. SB is on the prowl.

my wife generally doesn't go in for those types, at least those that are quite so ... extreme in their appearance as much as i do. i generally have to defer to her judgment, as we all know my moral standing is lying down.

Hey Asher, I know what you mean by highhorse, but do you (or anyone else) know where the phrase comes from?

I was curious too.

wiki says this:

To ride a high horse is to take oneself very seriously, and to consider oneself wiser or better than everyone else. To get off your high horse means to stop acting superior.

While horses were common, not everyone could afford them, also in the military officers rode horses while lower ranked soldiers walked. I'm guessing, but I'd say that the phrase refers to people who act like they are special/higher ranked than the speaker thinks they should are.

It is remarkably easy to cause you to resort to the use of expletives. I had always credited Canadians with a somewhat better knowledge of the English language. Sadly, I appear to have been mistaken.

Your attitude is hostile and childish, your grammar abysmal and your vocabulary severely wanting. Logic and reason seem to be unknown to you and you have a 'martyr complex' that surpasses belief!

Why you chose to have an argument with me in the first place astonishes me but to try and lower me to argument on your level is ridiculous in the extreme!

Wonderful

Sorry guys, Needed to make a point to Solver. I hope you won't mind this Tuberski.

My grammar is spectacular! My vocabulary is voluminous.

Your problem is you hide behind the vocabulary. Your posts are empty, your words are hollow, and your haughty attitude is annoying.

I don't know why you seem to imply it's ridiculous for me to enter an argument with you, because I am demolishing you right now while all you can do is emulate the most pompous British caricature one could fathom.

For what it's worth, the censored word was "t w a t", which is a British term if I'm not mistaken.

MY WORD!

Edit: The fact that you've no understanding of the subject matter is completely meaningless to you. You're used to forming condescending and vacuous essays, aren't you? What kind of arts did you study in university? I'm going to bet it was philosophy or English. Am I right?

Wonderful

Oh, to be easily impressed.

Why do I have the feeling if I recited the thesaurus you'd cream yourself?

Who is this "Dale"?

He's from over the hill.

You've been around 5 months and feel that you know everything there is to know about the dynamics of this site?

STFU dude.

Please do not resort to the utterly banal! The 'dynamics of this site'? What on earth are the dynamics of this Forum is the true question. This site is based on Civ and Civ related Games, very simple, whereas this Forum is based upon some form of perverse belief that attempting to humiliate someone publically is a laudable thing.

Off Topic, I would have imagined, would have consisted of reasoned and informed debate upon matters of interest rather than merely hurling abuse at each other.

'STFU' is no less a resort to insult than copious ****'s and does you no more credit.
