They are also mostly American so you do the math I freely confess that I am a complete dullard and have been for most of my life. And especially unimaginative and conventional in bed. For confirmation, ask any woman who has had the misfortune of getting involved with me! I suppose I have been hanging around these US of A long enough that I get mistaken for a local. Entirely understandable, in the circumstances that pertain.  But look at it this way: still better than being mistaken for a Canadian! 4 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Just my opinion sorry Specinho!  On 12/16/2019 at 5:00 PM, Jan van Eck said: the point is that you need to write your stuff in black and white like the rest of us, so that it is legible without eyestrain. Nobody reads your posts because of that awful green ink. I choose this color because it looks softer to my eyes than sharp black and white....... This might have come with age ... Since you are commenting, i bet you have read already but find the comment somehow touching bases that you might have problem with. Freedom of choice, to read, or not to read. Don't let the color nor the punctuation disturb you or influence your preference to read...... Edited December 17, 2019 by specinho 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

LOL I love how many people have commented on this. Admittedly I've said to this guy months ago ''your posts do my head in'', but Rob - to say ''well it's in green so you can't have a good point'' is hilarious mate haha. If he changed the same words to black it's suddenly Dickens is it? ''This man has no valid opinions! The proof is in his colour choice!'' 🤣 Come on man haha. I agree it's a bit weird to read and one day he changed to purple and it was lovely but people are literally getting funny with this guy because he has a bit of individuality? 🤣 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

He may be a modern day Dickens, I guess that's my loss, but also my choice as to whether i give myself eye-strain or not. It was tongue in cheek as I guess you already know 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest December 17, 2019 (edited) True but he says he does it as he himself gets eye strain. But yeah just write in black but bigger font or whatever then, or go with the purple @specinho , it's way nicer to look at, the green is a bit bright. It's just a shame as it is like we are all missing out or in eye pain. 21 minutes ago, Marcin said: But before clicking Submit Reply button, please change text color to black.

Nah, I don't get aggravated by D.T.'s posts. Kris is a fine fellow, good-hearted and kind to stray cats, how could anyone be angry with him? Plus, he is British, nope excuse me, "English," so you have to make allowances; the English all have these little peculiarities of thinking they are Churchill, or Gordon, or Nelson, OK Margaret. They look out across that Channel and see "more furriners!" I get a good laugh out of his little digs. All cool, all well. Cheers. P.S. Remember, my wife was British. I am attuned to that eccentric mode of thinking, it is something that comes out of the soil on that pile of rock they call a "Kingdom." The place comes complete with an antique queen, so be nice to the British!

Guest December 18, 2019 The joke is it is a dig to Americans and Jan agreed ''I am a dullard'' and ''I am confused for a local'' You expect me not to comment to that? It's too easy 🤣 And no, not a bad trading day, just English banter, but yes, I do love cats. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
