michaelcoombs Posted October 15, 2005 Posted October 15, 2005 This thread has grown so quickly it's now the 8th most replied to in the chat forum! Only 3 places behind "Caged Cages Bulk Buy". it must be all the waffleing
Leon B Posted October 15, 2005 Posted October 15, 2005 Just to add my little part, we have found the source of the problem, it wasnt my driving. Not going to prove my point but someone else helped me discover the problem. Just glad I was going relatively slow in comparison to this guys crash. Just out of interest, whats happened to Mr Blondies car?
Leon B Posted October 15, 2005 Posted October 15, 2005 After just reading through the previous posts I think it probably would be a good idea if this thread is deleted. I never knew we had such a*****s in the club!
Peter Cox Posted October 15, 2005 Posted October 15, 2005 Where's your video Leon? I couldn't find it [cue endless debate on how good or bad the search facility is].
Leon B Posted October 15, 2005 Posted October 15, 2005 I've taken the link off now, I thought it had died a death but obivously Harv feels he must resurect it!

There are idiots in every walk of life; please don't tar everyone with the same brush with comments like that - it makes you seem no better!

Sorry, but can we stop disrespecting idiots. I'm proud to be an idiot, all eccentric and jam. Idiot descends from Idiosyncratic, means your not as abnormally normal as the average man in the street. He doesn't have to be in the street, he could be anywhere...oh, and he could be a she as well...but you get the point. Terms that would possibly be more apt to the sentiments I infer are "fool" or "ignoramus".
Mrs Westy Posted October 15, 2005 Posted October 15, 2005 I'm liking your idiot ratio...is it no. of users/posts x num(annoyance)? No it's number of contributers whose comments may have annoyed you/number of registered members, expressed as a percentage and rounded up slightly (what's the difference between 0.0687% and 0.07% when you're talking idiots, eh). I'm liking your idea of a weighting factor, though. Maybe I'll consider some criteria like that for future use, and perhaps we could have an "idiot of the week" award in Westfield World PS Peter, if it makes you feel better, please read "ignoramus" for "idiot" above
Guest Posted October 15, 2005 Posted October 15, 2005 Leon read the thread back , tell me where on this thread i mention you ,your accident or any reference to that previous thread . I sent a pm to someone who has been the person constantly bringing your accident up in an unrelated thread , the reference to to you in that PM was exactly what i had said to you on the thread in question ........... but then you don't care anyway like you said.
