    Well, I don't think there was much point in saying that RF believes that every minimum wage earner supports a family nor implying that if a person breaks the law when (s)he is penniless, (s)he is just as likely to continue in the same vein when comfortable.

    I wouldn't say that those absolutes are well-warranted. I would go so far as to say that they are quite ridiculous.
    I plan on beating him to death with his kids. I'll use them as a bludgeon on his face. -

    Alright; just which absolutes are you referring to?

    I do hope you will forgive my apparent intransigence, manker; I find it more than a bit difficult to believe you think my construct an absolute but somehow (willfully?) overlooked Rat's in order to attempt to tag me...

    Have I reduced you to picking nits?

    How did I overlook what RF said. I replied to him too.

    I thought you were both talking a load of rubbish.

    I only commented on your second sweeping generalisation because you adressed me.

    Honestly, sometimes I really do think that you have a persecution complex.

    Well, damn, man-of course we were talking rubbish-what did you think we were doing?

    Honestly, you are such a manker-come-lately...

    And a persecution complex?

    Me?

    With my history here?

    Why would I, of all people, have a persecution complex?

    Silly boy.

    I thought you were both talking rubbish, which you've just confirmed. I think I said that. I made my point about your pointless absolutes when you adressed me with one of them, you said they were well-warranted so I enlightened you to their folly.

    It seems you agree.

    Then you said that I picked on you and not RF, like the big meany that I am - so I thought I'd better set you straight there too.

    As for the persecution complex ... yeah, I was kidding. Of course you don't think everyone on the board is out to get you

    Just so we're clear, I advised that Rat seemed to buy a common liberal generalization about minimum-wage earners over here.

    This nonsense about abuse of absolutes is tish and pish.

    I think the Prince Regent said that alot, doesn't he?

    And where did those figures come from?
