What does pep mean?

I'm not sure of the particulars but I believe "pep" has something to do with gastrointestinal ulcers.

If you are flopped out in a strawberry patch wearing a thong (probably with a twisted ankle thanks to the stilettos), your arse is already in a jam. No argument (or innuendo) from this corner.

Off to pick my strawberries before the snails get them....

I don't think Confucious said anything much worthwhile about much of anything actually.

Pep (Was he related to Confucius? Perhaps his confused little brother? Or a little-known semi-literate pretentious dragon gardener?)

Some similarly named pharmaceutical concoction claims to dissipate symptoms of digestive discomfort.

Pep (apparently is the cause of such discomfort. )

Where did Conficious come from? We've only had a Confucious - I think...

As a matter of principle you can never have too much punctuation.

Pep (Although you have to be careful to put it in the right places, of course. )

I see you have edited - that was quick work.

Pip is one of the myriads of paranoiacs who see any posting that appears remotely to support any of my (of course) ridiculous or bigoted views, as being one of my supposed army of alts.

Pep (You may take this as a compliment or not. )

I review my posts for typos as a matter of course.

Pep (Of course)

Hmmmmmm...

I can see you as a schoolmaster Pep - the *headmaster* of a boys school, naturally. I can envisage you standing in front of the school at assembly and, in a beautiful, rich Welsh accent, saying something like...

"...and now I speak to the Rugby Team. Boys will be boys and high spirits will flow - but when it comes to spreading tacs on the changing room floor, I, as your Headmaster, _must_ put my foot down!"

Deira (who has a long memory for very old jokes).

Don't *you* start as well!

Pep (It's bad enough Jig having authority/father figure fantasies about me. )

/me imagines Pep as my 5th grade math teacher.



Though he carried a purse....

Pep is much more tollerable if you read his posts in a Kenneth Williams style snide, weasely nasel tone.

Has anyone checked on Jig? I'm starting to worry that the seals got her.

I was more worried about the seals....

Ack! Shakes Rioko's hand, "Pleased to meet you!"

Transferred from another thread to a more appropriate place

Two answers? I have an infinite number . . .

Pep (but you only seem to have a limited number of questions. )

PS 'tollerable'? - funny how it is the semi-literates that whinge that spelling doesn't matter.

They were a bit worried too ...

Yeah, I only have a few questions:

Since when is grasp of English an indication of someone’s worth?

Who are all these hidden intelligent people equally disgusted with the level of grammar in these forums who you keep referring to?

What unbending will deep in your ego is telling you that you you're this hilarious force to be reckoned with?

Why are you such an asshole?

Does the world revolve around your tin shed?

What is the airspeed velocity of an unladen swallow?

My dad actually knew Ken and oddly your image kinda works for me. In reality of course he was the most generous of men and truly a gentle person. But in my parents' scrapbooks there's "Professor Jimmy Edwards" and my own real memories of girls' prep school and boring old wa*kers on Thursdays. Pep sounds just a bit like that. But more redbrick university. His claims to Oxford are outrageous. I know boys who have been there and he's not like them. They have muscles and row boats with cokswain. Pep isn't boring but he is Welsh. I wish he was like someone in Torchwood.
I keep thinking of Sting's "Don't Stand So Close to Me" I reckon I could have seduced him not so long ago in real - "oooooo Mr Daniels, is that your ruler?" Twelve years ago ... ah memories!
Now I must go - I have to help a friend with some books.

In many situations; usually when the standard mode of communication is English, particularly written English. It is difficult to assess worth if it is not demonstrable. You might have the answer to the question at the end of the universe, but if you are unable to communicate it then you are of no value to anyone else.

"Disgusted"? No-one is disgusted, I would have thought. I certainly am not and have not referred to any such people. Your inability to read is revealing itself again.

I have no unbending will deep in my ego or even surface mountable, so your question doesn't get off the starting blocks.

I am not. I can't speak for your perception. Perhaps you have a different concept associated with that word than I do. That would be consistent with your inability to follow an explanation.

I don't have a tin shed. If I did I doubt if the world would revolve around it, unless I situated it at one of the poles.

Slightly more than a laden one.

Pep (Any more? Difficult ones next time perhaps. )

Funny you should mention that. A Greek friend of mine did a stint at Oxford and he is an absolutely annoying barstid about spelling, grammar, and typos ad naseum. Arguments (and there are always arguments on even the dullest subject) about the logic of almost any concept can turn into WWIII. Sadly, he has not too many muscles but would make a great cockswain

Not that I knew Pep claimed to have attended Oxford. I do handle them both the same way though and typo everywhere to irritate them.

Unbending Will: He comes from Cardiff. have you ever met anyone from Cardiff?

Swallow: Somewhere around 98 mph on a good day.

I typo too! I am 29ish - were you the girl with the straight dark hair who had a tattoo on her left shoulder of a parrot and sat one row across to the left and back from me?

Try typing "the" as "teh" (a genuine mistake I make) and see his reaction! He'll go ballistic.

I must go. I promised the mover men.

Isn't Doctor Who from Cardiff?

I never met him, mind you, so I don't suppose it matters.
