Dear Mr Darling

[expat]

Did you have your sense of humour surgically removed or did it wither, die and drop off of its own accord due to lack of use?

You are not qualified to give the above advice. Real life is too funny to spoil it by laughing at cheap fictions.

I was fed up. I found I was spending too much time posting. I was getting wound up by trivia on here especially when so many idiots were defending ridiculous personal stand points against all reasonable argument. So many posters having personal digs and private spats without contributing to the argument. Amongst other things.

I didnt even look at the place for a couple of months.

Not sure I will stay yet either.
