True, true. Have you been watching the IPL?

I've been following it via Cricinfo and watching highlights on Youtube. I wish Lee, Ponting and others could have stayed till the finals.

I've seen little bits here and there including Gillies big ton but its hard to get interested when I dont have "my team" to follow. Any idea if Warnies team are still in?

Even granting that it is indeed true that "the whole world hates America," why would you even imagine that we care? The very premises for the (constant) assertions that "the whole world hates America" ought *also* to tell you people that we simply don't give a damn about what foreigners think. Sheesh!

Yeah, yeah. You really have all the cliches memorised don't you? What's next, kiwibird - "So's your old man?" Go take a bath, you still smell of ewe-shit. Christ, why am I wasting my time on someone who lives in Australia's vermiform appendix? I have better things to do - like sort socks and clean the litter box.

Well, I wasn't mad at the guy - I cracked a joke and a lot of people became offended - even Hamed (once realizing I was playing with him) came down off the ledge. It surprises me that so many people (I'm taking about the regulars here) are still surprised and offended by anything I say. They know I insult as many people as I can in a given instance and whenever I see an opening, and they're equally aware that I don't mean anything by it. It's a little harmless fun at the expense of someone else. If someone wants to spar, they're more than welcome to step into the circle with me. This is really a lot of hullabaloo over nothing.

Despite the stupidity here, I find the Soapbox much more relaxing. I feel "imprisoned" in the Lounge - like I have to watch my every step. By the way, you've got quite the fan club. I've never had so many greyed out posts. You dragged over all the regular Lounge lizards and their itchy '1 vote' fingers.

I've gotta be - I did my time in academia. You don't survive if you're not. It's partly the reason I moved out of the Ivory Towers and into the Private Sector - I got tired of grown adults acting like kids. Mind you it's not that different now, but at least it's not a continuous battle. To fill the void, I come here! :-\

Am I misremembering? Did you not recently congratulate The Twit as a "wise old head" after he'd attempted a similar, how you say, "intelligent" "insult?"
Ah, OK, so it STILL hurts, does it? Interesting, interesting.

That's because you're still young. Don't worry about it, but also don't be so hard on yourself.

What? Being young or being hard on oneself? You're very bright - I suspect you realize that. I also think you under-rate yourself. You're 13 now, you are just beginning an important phase in your life. Take it slowly, there's no point in rushing to adulthood. I don't mean running around and acting like a general buffoon (you don't) - I mean take your time to learn and enjoy. Explore the things that interest you - even if those things are the diverse characters that inhabit this message board. Do it now. Enjoy it. Make sure to take it all in with a grain of salt. After 20 it just gets harder and harder. Don't take this the wrong way, but there's a saying "Youth is wasted on the young" - it will be a few more decades before you completely understand that, but eventually you'll get my point. By that time I'll be even more of a grumpy old man. My point is that I'd cash in all my chips tomorrow to be your age again.

I like to dance on the edge in the lounge. I got a lot of 1 votes yesterday too. :)

What's interesting is that leckey says she's been using Dot Indians forever now. I always thought you coined the term and she picked it from you. You should have filed a patent on the term, just to ensure people credited you with having invented the term.
