    Oh I certainly hope so. I'd hate to think that somebody who was subtle enough to come up with Mr O'Handjob failed to spot it.

Salesman - Probably not. Tester - Bah, what kind of car is this? Tester - Are its headlights sledgehammer proof? Salesman - No. Tester - Can it read my mind? Salesman - No. Tester - If I dive out of the door at 60 mph will I be safe, and the car find its own way home? Salesman - No. Tester - If I disregard every rule of logic and deliberately try and injure people by driving recklessly on the pavements will the car keep me and the pedestrians safe? Salesman - No.

                                It makes them swell.

                                I told you not to use the air gun for applying cream. I know it's macho and all, but the swelling is just not worth it.

                                    I heard it was applied with thistles.

                                      No, it wasn't rude. You posted crap in the lounge, and Pete posted an honest (and accurate) assessment of the message. If you want rude, I am prepared to provide an example. BTW, "new member" status does not automatically mean you're allowed to post crap and go unnoticed as a result.
