you're getting old, you can do better than that dad.


How's life in the chocolate box cottage ?

are you sons still living at home and giving you 30% of their hard earned as keep or have you kicked them out ?

I guess the former, would make a good pension plan wouldn't it ?

YinYang,

no ego here, just simply don't give a monkees

the reply again represents how the new generation take everything personally and respond at a personal level instead of an objective subjective level

...isn't this representative of their generation, rules for the sake of rules instead of commonsense and understanding and knowing the difference in the fine line of over stepping the mark and not over stepping the mark
...

Yes. Well said.

Coupled with a lack of respect for anything or anyone, and getting upset at the merest suggestion that the world does not revolve around them.

Less of this new generation thing, youngster. I was getting this 'I was here first' crapola from eejits on Usenet 20 years ago, and it was bollards then too.

Eat it up. Things change. Move with it. Less b*tchsquealing.

I'm a newbie and I have no idea what all the fuss is about.

With the exception of SASGuru spawning a dozen threads I haven't seen anything that disrupted the site.

Even this 'youth of today' nonesense. Which war was it you fought in again? Medal of Honour 1, 2 or 3?

Cold War - 1976-1989.

I think I see a suble war of attrition going on (look it up Minestrone) between the mods and the great unwashed. The direction is clear and several heavy handed measures have been used to make examples of certain posters.

Coming from several weeks ago when I for one thought the moderation on here was practically non existant, to conscripting new mods, I think things are going to improve.

From a personal stand point I have received feedback from posters in general and a certain mod what is good and what is bad to post. This has got through to me and I will try and up my game if everyone else does likewise.

IF however I see crap posts about kebabs in Germany for example, and other likewise cretinous threads, I will of course forget what I just said and carry on as normal.

The fate of CUK standards rests in your hands people, but try and understand what an augean task it must be to raise the bar from "their" perspective.

Onwards an upwards people.

Please do us all a favour and STFU.

Thanks.
