We are just heaving so much fun here making the pics and...

This is still going? I'll answer your points and then after that I think agreeing to disagree might be best?
I am sure that he has people whom he resists the temptation to treat like crap; most trolls do. That doesn't necessarily excuse the mistreatment of others just because he has a few "pets" that he just so happens to spare from his pretentiousness. I can't speak for Pep's other friends but Pep was obnoxious when I first met him in the forums. Pep is still obnoxious in the forums. The way I conducted myself prevented Pep from continuing to be obnoxious to me. Apparently if I could bottle this magic formula it'd make me a few bob. You say: "You can get along with Pep". I take that as the general case usage of "you", and not the person you were responding to specifically. Please correct me if I am wrong there. I meant both types of you. It is possible, but in the case of you specifically it seems that bridge is burnt. In order for me to "get along" with him, he has to "get along" with me. Thus, that is the crux of my response to you where I question how one can "get along" with Pep, when he makes no effort to "get along" with anyone else ("pets" excluded). I have answered this several times already. Sure, you get along with him because he gets along with you. You've already established a rapport, for whatever reason. *I* see no incentive to establish a rapport, I think it was more of a case of me not throwing myself on the ground and having a tantrum at his first rude comment. I corrected him and we moved on. so the best incentive I have is to permanently mark him as a completely useless waste of protoplasm and put him on ignore... I can either ignore him ...or come to spar with him for entertainment value. There are certainly no end of people here who enjoy a ringside seat to watch the Palooka get repeatedly and thoroughly mauled, let alone by a Dragon. ![]() Unfortunately you have established a rapport with Pep, it's just a miserable one. I haven't seen you maul him other than the armadillo comment. Maybe you think you are mauling me too. (lots remove for ground previously covered) Thus, when he said that I "didn't have a clue" about "getting along" with him, he was more or less telling you that you don't have a clue. /QUOTE] Ugh. No. You said that "you" can get along with him. If it is clueless of me to ask how (because I didn't see any possible avenue), then it is just as clueless to say that it can happen in the first place. THAT is why I said he was beating you up. More or less, he disputes your assertion, using his normal acerbic zeal. ![]() Again, ground covered but to wrap it up: You in general and you Talarus have the option to get along with him. It seems that window of opportunity has passed and, and the window was then painted and nailed shut. So...great! It would have been clueless if the way to get along with him wasn't so obvious. Maybe that is why so few people do get along with him, it's like not being able to see the forest because of all those trees in the way. I suspect he wasn't talking about me. Pep was talking about those that are unable to get along with him. Another misunderstanding blown out of proportion.... _____________________

Just to be clear, I am not calling Laurin Pep's "pet", intending it in any demeaning way. Clearly, they have a valued friendship. My point in saying it is that it is a well-known tactic for forum trolls to foster and exploit relationships (even unintentionally) to garner support, since they rarely act alone. I am not specifically referring to Laurin in that case, but anyone in general who could be subjected to such behavior. Talarus, I have a very bad temper and a low frustration threshold. It's extraordinary to behold when I whig. Those character flaws have forced me to learn to examine events and interactions twice before I flip the bean and do something I will regret. I am pleased you aren't referring to me because I am well able to look after myself. You should really worry about poor Pep ![]() _____________________

I can't speak for Pep's other friends but Pep was occasionally obnoxious when I first met him in the forums. Pep is still occasionally obnoxious in the forums. The way I conducted myself prevented Pep from *wanting* to be obnoxious to me. Apparently if I could bottle this magic formula it'd make me a few bob. Fixed it for ya! I haven't seen you maul him other than the armadillo comment. I suspect he wasn't talking about me. Pep was talking about those that are unable to get along with him. QFT Pep (Hey, Talarus, all the rest of my friends are getting a real kick out of your inability to comprehend that not everyone is exactly like you - thank goodness - nor lives to the same set of blinkered rules, despite your fatuous insistence that they are the "right" ones, written or unwritten!) _____________________

Pep (My newspaper cuttings apparently constitute a fire hazard according to my house insurance.) PS I am told I snore, but being an existentialist, I deny it. _____________________

PS I am told I snore, but being an existentialist, I deny it. Glad you did Twickenham. Actually don't doubt you. You need my publicist - she keeps my newspaper cuttings in really neato transparent file folders. From Heal's?? And ooo Pep I can see by your signature you know Eliot. "Hypocrite lecteur" indeed! Can I teach you to hear mermaids singing? I do not think that they will sing to me. I would have thought "It was my thirtieth year to heaven ..." would have been more appropriate? or "Do not go gentle into that good night" perhaps? I snore like a piglet I am told - snuffly. And cute. I NEVER sleep with someone in my bed. I always kick them out and sleep alone. They can have guest room or guest house. I also insist men take off their jewellery in my bed so they dont chip my teeth. But this is getting way too much info for one post (or bed post, whatever case may be.) _____________________

That isn't what he said. ![]() That's the equivalent of believing that to become a rugby referee you should study the rules of speed skating. ![]() Pep (I understand what you are trying to do Deira, but delusions of adequacy are still delusions.) Oh for crying out loud Pep! I have a little education, a lot of patience and grown up kids - but communicating with you is akin to talking to my very elderly father-in-law! I can't believe you went to Cambridge, if you had learnt any Latin at all, you would know that learning Latin teaches you all the things about English that the English classes never do. Deira (who originally wrote "silly old fart", but changed it because she did not want to teach Ben English slang - after all, if my kids called someone a "silly old fart", I'd probably have a hissy fit and tell them off). _____________________

Well, imagine what it's like living next to him. Really, he's a Welsh romantic. When he gets in his cups you just gotta be patient and let him win that garden cricket match he's challenged you to or else he'll sulk - or cheat! And yes, he shrieks of Cambridge. I'm glad I went to what I wanted to do and not go to university. I got 60% in Latin and I was told I was letting my parents down by my latin teacher - NOT so long ago! Ah, happy days! NOT!! _____________________

Hi Jig - nice weekend for you I hope. Cambridge must be going downhill badly - must be all those re-usable standards, rather like re-usable software components. Carry that to extremes and they will all be talking in Linden Scripting Language - like a lot of macro calls. (Ben, take note- this is the real strength of the English langiage. In 37 words I have successfully insulted Cambridge University, Pep and Linden Scripting Language - accurate brevity. *Evil grin*) _____________________
