If you read a post and feel that you have found a compatriate - a person with good and true vision of the world someone who represents truth, honor and the [Country of Origin Here]an way, then give them a five. If you read a post and feel like picking up a large metal object and beating that person in the face with it until they are bloody and lifeless - then give them a one.
A cynic is a man who, when he smells flowers, looks around for a coffin.

Thats what I do!
Thank God for disproportional force.

I think his point with the "why would i want to fight fare_[sic]_" comment was that, should a fight look likely, he'd shoot his opponent-to-be in the back. Pre-emptive, see... :rolleyes:

The funny thing is that my question "Have you ever been in a fight" was interpreted as if I was asking for a fight. Granted, I did try to provoke him, but my intention was not to have a fight with him or anyone else. I'm beginning to think that people are losing the ability to comprehend the written word. Is the fist this age's Esperanto? :~

I wouldn't hit anyone unless I'd really had to. Nobody excluded. :)

Why would I want to fight fare with my fists and feet when there is the possibility of me getting hurt or killed. I take fights as life and death situations and if you were to attack me you would be a gonner and that is all there is to it.
The fact Jorgen recently appeared in the world championships of his chosen martial art, is ranked in the dan level and is proficient (more than) with and without weapons, I'm sure you would be fucked up beyond all recognition before you could comprehend it.

To be fair, I'm not dan graded yet. If my back doesn't stop me (damn nerve ends in my lower back keeps messing with me), I've a feeling that my sensei will tell me to practice for the grading test in March maybe.

Losing? Written? Naw, you got it all wrong. Most people don't even comprehend spoken words at all well. Factor out the hesitant comprehension of their own words, and you don't have much beyond very simple pattern matching associated with well-learned reflexes. And i'm not excluding myself here either... :~

You seem to at least make an effort. :) (Sometimes you leave me quite baffled with your posts - not sure what to make of it. But I'm guessing that's the point ;))

A 5 for a well presented argument, even if one does not agree, is also appropriate. A 1 for personal attacks, gratuitous vulgarity,or uncommon stupidity also seems a valid response.

Communication is tricky business. We get an idea in our heads and try to share that somehow, with people we don't necessarily know or understand, and whose minds are likely quite different from our own. I think there's a very real danger, doing something like this, in trying to behave as though what we've written is as plain to our readers as it is to ourselves. I think, sometimes at least, it is better that misunderstanding be immediate and complete, so that a different approach may be tried, or even that the attempt be abandoned completely.

can just lead to bigger problems...

That's why real programmers use on error goto
