If you want your stay in this NG to be well-received, I suggest you try
to be a bit more polite, maybe use emoticons if you don't mean something
seriously, because it's very hard to tell somebody's state of the mind
through a set of letters.

Just a suggestion.

I don't want to stay in this NG anymore, because I find the lack of on topic
threads disturbing. I only made one OT thread, and the other ones I just
responded to.

It's not like this NG has any real positive qualities. Probably because NGs are
international.

And that's right, I am a troll. I live in the lower peninsula of Michigan,
under the Mackinac Bridge. What's your point?

AOL has a reputation for being full of clueless red-necks -
currantbun.com seems to be the nearest British equivalent.

That reputation is only because of AOL's monster ad campaign, with free disks
and everything, so everyone thinks it's the best thing ever...

...of course it's not. I should know.

I dont eat lunch, i have dinner.

Hmm...seems the working class have: breakfast, dinner, tea.
And in London it seems to be: breakfast, dinner, supper

And for the middle-class: breakfast, elevenses, lunch, high tea, afternoon
tea, dinner, supper

Christ! That must be one hungry person!

Eddie

Wow.

In the U.S., the working class have lunch and dinner. There is no breakfast.

Does anyone know what the real difference between 'supper' and 'dinner' is?

Naw, it wasn't an insult. I just like British accents. Hey, don't you have
that
expression 'time to eat tea' or something silly like that? How do you eat
tea?
Well, you could freeze it...

You've been watching too many stereotypical English films, portraying us all
as snobs.
No chance.
We don't all talk like that
Only the rich have 'tea' (I have tea, but not in the same meaning)
We have many different ways of life
Just like the US
We all have accents
We all have different pronunciations.

Basically, the films are HORRIBLY WRONG

Not all British people talk like that? Awww... that makes them un-cool.

(WARNING: INCOMING OFF-TOPIC PARAGRAPH)

Oh, and that reminds me. I'm 14 (glorious age of constant insults and
non-stop
blabbering of things, not to mention the overuse of the words 'thing' and
'like') and am doing a research paper on Chernobyl's explosion and the
resulting aftermath... do any of you 'nice' Europeans have any news
articles or
something you could copy for me about it? Say... e-mail it right over here
to
my totally useless America On Hold account? Enschec...@aol.com, eh?

I'm 14, I don't use 'thing' and 'like' like some people in my class do

'ahhhh...likkkkkkkkkkkkkkkke....unnnh....what d'yer do 'ere like?'

(Above: impression of slappers in my class asking me for answers)

I've got a scouse accent, but no way is it as bad as something like that.

Eddie

I think it's something genetic, because I use 'thing' and 'like'
subconsciously.

Could be the pollution which causes my mouth to move faster than my brain...

This debate will never be solved.

Lets just give it a rest eh?

You'll only end driving a massive rift in the group.

[Christie Lewis]

I'm going to cry. On everybody's behalf. May we learn from this...

And I am being serious. I can't believe how childish this all is. The one
newsgroup I am devoted to and love.

Reading EnsCheckov's comments, I really hope he hasn't read this message,
and that he is gone from here. I think you make a very good 'oldie', Josef,
thanks for backing the newsgroup.

*I'm* gonna stay, and *I* think this NG *has* real positive qualities.

Sorry, I'm feeling over-sensitive.

Did I say it was my group?

No.

I wouldn't want moderating, as it would ruin the group.
I know I can't conversations, but I am entitled to my opinion and my voicing
of it.
All that I am saying, is that debates like this will never be settled, so
why bother with it? You only end up with flames galore, and that results
in....

I couldn't have put it better myself Josef.
As I did say, he is a hypocrite.
Christies post (just below) also is very well written.

This NG has real positive qualities. We've had no trouble until you came
along. Just now, that you are here, it may seem bad, becuase of the way we
are acting, but I assure you, this is not how we would normally behave. It's
jut people like you, who have made us this way.

LOL! All these are top class. Well done Anthony

You know the one about the chap, who when told by his help desk
to "Press any key" asked which one the 'Any' key was? He was an
AOL user, so they say.

AOL has a reputation for being full of clueless red-necks -
currantbun.com seems to be the nearest British equivalent.

Going even further off topic - Did you hear about the chap who
rang up his help desk to complain that his PC had completely
locked up and wouldn't do anything? The analyst asked if there
was any message displayed. "Oh, yes.", he replied, "It says 'It
is now safe to turn off your computer'".

I'm sure you've heard of the one about the person who couldn't find the CD
drive.

Person: "I can't find my CD drive. Where do I put the CD?"
Tech Support: "Okay, look on your CPU, and find the part where it says 'CD'. Is
there a little button there?"
Person: "Yes."
Tech Support: "Push it."
Person: "That's not the CD. That's just the cupholder. Where's the CD drive?"

That's odd. I've never boughten anything from Korea... it all says 'Made in
Japan, Taiwan, China, or Mexico' if it doesn't say 'Made in USA'.

You don't need to get rid of AOL, just take a subscription somewhere
else yourself.

That's the advantage of a newsgroup, you can read your post again before
pushing the Send button. You can think over every sentence, very word,
every character you've written.
