How do you spell "shitstirrer"?

You really do crave attention. It's startling - I should ignore you 'cause that would be the grown up thing to do.

However, each time I, or anyone, replies. You make yourself look like an arse and it makes me laugh. I think, for now, I'll forego the grown uppedishness.

Billy, you're an idiot and a fantasist - but not bad entertainment. :beerchug:

I'd employ the smoker if he was the most qualified. It seems pretty stupid to settle with someone less skilled, simply because the best person for the job doesn't smell acceptable to you. In fact, I think that someone who'd discriminate the way you obviously would doesn't fall within what I'd deem acceptable for a "nice" person.

I'd employ none of your criminals, or the compulsive gambler, which I thought would be obvious from my answers.

I'm not a Liverpool supporter, and it really wouldn't matter if I was, now would it. Have you lost the plot somewhat, perhaps?

Nicotine does have a soothing effect even on those who hasn't previously used it, like alcohol, it gives a rush, and for many people a feeling of contentment.

Bad analogies doesn't win anything. However, I didn't see manker comparing someone with a bad habit with a child molester. You did on the other hand, and that strikes me as somewhat excessive, to say the least.

This thread is pretty entertaining. :lol:

On-topic: I have been asked at interviews whether I smoke or not, I just lie and say I do but not very much. :whistling

No, no. You misunderstand.

I based my idiot and fantasist statement on everything I've ever read that you've written. In this thread, on this board in other threads, under your Rikk persona and at the Moderation.

Not just this thread.

You're an idiot and a fantasist. I wasn't tempted into that statement by your comments in this thread alone but thanks for the roddage.

l'd love to stay and show you up some more Minger, but my son's band is playing in Cambden tonight and l must get them there. Keep up the fantasies, you're good value for money.

:lol: So then the truth is that you don't smoke, but like a chimney?

Ah, a nutter :P

I never could.

If God had wanted us to run, he'd never have give us the brains to train horses or make cars

Hmmm...
Advocate of Orwellian society.
A marathon runner and exemplar of health.
62 years old.
And father of a child who still needs ferrying around?

Sheesh.
I smoke a lot and still managed not to stink up this thread as you have done, UK.
Bravo.

A tip of the Lucky to you, sir.

If the rest of this thread is anything to go by, I predict wholesale ignoring of the point, selective quoting and this response:

I'm the father of two children, a grandchild, three koalas and a polar bear, actually. Clonker, please stop making things up.

I'm making a fool out of you.

You can get as personal as you like Clonker, it makes no difference to me. You've already proved what an idiot you are with your posts, now you've proved further what an idiot you are as a smoker. You obviously have low self esteem as a smoker, which puts your posts into perspective.

Do you really want to bring my children into this? Well do your worst, show us all how low you can stoop. You'll soon be right down there with Minger and J'Trol.

Consecutive roddage without attempting a comeback. I must have really got to you.

I didn't think my idiocy was the issue here.
For some reason I believed that the issue was how extensive the control of an employer over his employees could be.
You apparently believe that it should be limitless (as you've failed to provide any exclusions) and I do not.
Lashing out at those who question your beliefs is amusing and mildly entertaining for the rest of us ( and almost certainly quite satisfying for you), but hardly condusive to furthering the discussion.

Bye Billy.
I'd like to say it's been fun, but it hasn't.

Why do you guys even entertain such an idiot? :blink:

If UKmanBillyDeanwhateverthefuck actually had good points then maybe he'd be worth the time but alas he is a leper on this board (most likely banned).

You have not made a proper post here yet. You entered this thread with the sole intention of having a go at me, even to the exclusion of reading the posts l was replying to, so don't make out that you're the aggrieved one here.

lf you want to continue this stupid Billy nonsense, carry on, how childish, if l were Billy Dean l would have been off here weeks ago. But you believe what you want, who cares.

Please to refer back to page one of this thread.
You'll note that I posted here before your odious self did.
Perhaps nicotine has made me prescient, as I was "having a go" at you before you even posted.
Your logic gap widens even as your eloquence diminishes.

Kinda like watching a slo-mo trainwreck.

If anyone is watching TV right now this guy is going to be on FOX news in a few minuets.

@RF why is billy still here?

What guy and what orchestra is playing? :unsure:

The boss who wanted employees to quit smoking or be fired.

Say what about an orchestra?

I think it would only apply to the wind section.

The thread in a nutshell.

If you agree with the above AND believe that your boss has the right, nay, the obligation, to regulate your personal habits, please raise your hand.

The rest of you have detention.

You must smoke in detention.
You are already a self-selected idiot and we would prefer you hurl yourself, gasping, towards an early grave.

There is a line of more suitable applicants bunching up behind you maam...please move along.

Sorry for holding up the line. I was grabbing my soap, shampoo, laundry detergent, toothpaste and brush, mouthwash, light, fresh scented perfume, breath mints, air cleaner and air freshener that, as a smoker, I use probably twice of as compared to a non-smoker.. ... :frusty: .. ... when I realized I must ask further questions here before hurling myself into detention.

These bosses in detention........do they force you to smoke after work, too? :huh:

Because you see, that is my own time. And I refuse to be told by a boss if I can or cannot smoke during my own time. :lol:

I will step aside, although I am sure I would love the company, and stay where I am at. :D

I have de tension. But I am taking pills for it. :)
