    Nah I wouldn't like the spotlight and fame, I will probably pleasantly decline it when they offer.

      You launched a pedantic attack on me in the professional forum for confusing IP Address with Domain, you hypocritical two-faced cow.

      If you don't think there's a significant difference between being smart and being intelligent, you really are dumb. No wonder you have enjoyed working with seemingly bright people throughout your career, compared to you they ARE all smart.

      I also see no evidence of people ignoring me, they keep replying to posts I make.

        I generally find that rolling them up quite tightly and using them like a baton has quite a high impact. Of course it doesn't matter what is written on them or indeed if anything is written on them at all..

          Oh change the record doogie, please. Get over yourself, realise that people don't give nearly as much of a toss about your uninformed opinions as you seem to think, and certainly aren't interested in entering into meaningless digressions about minutiae in every single conversation you participate in, such as your perceptions of the technical distinctions between "intelligence" and "being smart".

          Have you noticed how many of your CUK conversations end in you attempting to nit-pick some irrelevant non-point that nobody's interested in, and everyone else just giving up and ignoring you? There's a reason for that. So learn from your repeated experiences of being ignored FFS and stop acting like a pointless pedant.

            That's just beautiful. I couldn't have planned that better if I'd tried.



            It's nice of you to pay such close attention to all my posts, but a bit worrying you seem to be wasting so much time on them when telling us what YOU think.

            Cue an overly long, elaborately argued riposte filled with long words and unprovable suppositions

              As I say, get over yourself. My comments relate to the representative sample of your compulsive-obsessive pedantry I've observed in those threads I've participated in. I bet this is the most interaction you've had with anyone since someone else gave you a slap a few weeks ago for the same pedantic behaviour.

              Anyway, this moment is over now, I hope you enjoyed the brief 'attention' your pedantry brought. Next time you participate in a conversation, maybe you'll bring some ideas and opinions of your very own to the party, rather than latching onto some non-point in the hope that someone will be interested in debating it with you. But I doubt it.

                You're keeping records back several weeks of what I said? A little scary. Especially since we had no interaction on CUK until the last week or two, and suddenly you jump on me. You must have been stalking me all this time, waiting for your chance.

                I wasn't around when L**y was, is this how it started?

                    She complained I was being 2-faced when I called her a cow in a rep comment so I thought I'd placate her by doing it in public this time.

                      I think SasGuru used the right word. effective.

                      it's nothing to do with how brainy you are, it's all to do with how effective you are.

                      hitting the nail on the head, and all that
