I say, this is jolly interesting.

Popcorn, anyone?

What complete rubbish. A drunk driver on the road is like a loose

********. I was completely ****faced driving back from Wales this
evening - sprog was falling about laughing at the way I couldn't
stop running onto the rumble strip on the edge of the M48 - but I
didn't hit anything, didn't kill anyone, didn't even break the
speed limit. Victimless crime. Stop being such an old woman, you
pathetic self-panicker.


Bring back hanging. How can have the nerve to drink & drive AND COME
ON HERE AND BOAST ABOUT IT?


It's groovy. I *like* it.

What's the matter with you? *Someone* has to do it...


Oddly enough I was chatting about drink driving "the morning after"
to another poster on ukrm and we both agreed we'd done it a few
times. Nobody was hurt so why ****ing worry?


I've had it happen a few times that I've had to be helped out to the car.
What I do nowadays is, when I start to feel it a bit, I go out to the car
and sit in, and have the waitress bring the drinks out to me. Any time I
need a refill, I just toot the horn.

Does the waitress always cum when you push your horn.

That is what I meant...

- but it ain't clever enough to
formulate original stuff based on the content of the post - and I don't
use sigs, they're bad for your health.

That would be a sig


No, it isn't. The sig goes below the -- bits.

It seems you imagine my speech would pause after the word 'but', is
that the case? I wrote that line exactly as I'd say the sentence,
I'd not pause after the word 'but'.


I did not imagine anything. Just because you don't talk proper doesn't
mean that not writing proper should be a natural consequence.


How do you know I don't talk properly,


You claim that the way you write is how you speak: "I wrote that line exactly
as I'd say the sentence..."


When on Usenet I generally reply in a quickly typed, highly informal,
conversational style. I never spell-check and I very rarely proof read -
there are better things to waste my time upon. I find the informal
approach lends itself to the kind of lively banter often seen in
uk.rec.motorcycles, the newsgroup where I'm currently reading this
delightful cross-post.


Thanks for sharing that with us. It's always rewarding when first
impressions are proved accurate.


In a single sentence I'd not make a pause, there's no point in doing
so, it's a one line interruption.


Errrk! Could you repeat that, using sensible punctuation, so that it
makes sense to the reader rather than just the speaker?

Perhaps not.


In article , Ginge
wrote a few words
illustrating emphatically that he doesn't talk properly:

Treat it as though I was rudely interupting your diatribe, butting in
without drawing a single breath.


Thanks for sharing that with us. It's always rewarding when first
impressions are proved accurate.


"Anyhow, I see no point in carrying on with this...

...At least not until I find my ingerlish teecher and sew hymn fer knot
teaching me write.... I were just a GCSE guinea-pig, for crying out
loud... They aint not teached us nuffink!"


Thanks for sharing that with us. It's always rewarding when first
impressions are proved accurate.

When I'm that drunk, pushing it is all I can manage.

That would be the sig you don't use again


No, it wouldn't. It is not a sig. The sig would follow the -- things.

That, on the other hand, would be the sig separator that is
a) Broken
b) In the wrong place.


No. It means you have a duff news prog.

Let that be a lesson to you.


Boring, boring, boring.

You and Des should meet up.


Ooh I say, that's a bit harsh surely? g


but, reading the rest of the thread, fair, I think you'd agree.
