So you've pulled Nigella Lawson...

Would you hit a bloke? I also feel it is worse to hit a woman, but I don't agree with hitting anyone. I'm not sure, is it a relic of more sexist times that we're indoctrinated with? I'm happy we keep it...

I think this is the way it should be. I think most accept we're stronger, and more likely to cause more damage if we do strike them. But with this chap, it's the multiple times he did it, the look of fear in her face, and the fact it continued.

But, as sas said, maybe he was provoked

[Old Hack]

But why do you care?

I'm trying to help him. God knows he needs it.

You don't believe IQs exist? Their interpretation is a different matter, but I was just keeping this simple for you.

Obviously a construct called the "Intelligence Quotient", and a means of testing it, has been invented by certain humans.
And it seems to try to measure certain aspects of intelligence, but by its very nature excludes or cannot measure others.
Always seemed to me it was a little simplistic for the complexity of the real world?

A lot like you then?

But you've spent the last year telling us that you were, and only went back to work as you were offered shed loads of dosh.

In the interests of accuracy, I'd love to see you stop bulltulipting.

You are on a site, where by the very nature of our work, we're all paid, mostly, in the top 95th percentile, yet, somehow, you have to tell everyone how wealthy you are. Some here, have been contracting for over 15 years, some have had partners who've also been contracting that length of time. I assume most here are better off than the average Joe. But for you, that's not enough, you have to tell people that you are better than them, wealthier, more intelligent. It's this demonstration of need in you, that's odd. Why do you feel the need to tell everyone night and day how rich and intelligent you are? I'd venture a large proportion of people on this site are of above average intellect and wealth.

No one believes you sas, which makes the constant references to it that much funnier.

Why do you care so intensely about some ethereal character on t'internet so much?
Maybe I'm making it all up, what does it matter to you, if you are happy?
Seems to me you have some kind of mental illness, apart from your obvious OCD and budding alcoholism.

Don't worry. 120 is very respectable.

I find your behaviour interesting sas. It seems whenever you get challenged, you immediately resort to telling people you are richer and more intelligent than them; it's a default behaviour. For someone who purports to be as intelligent as you do, you resort to ad hominem arguments the very moment you are challenged, contrary to how an intelligent person would act.

It's fascinating.

Just good enough for Oxbridge, I've heard it said.

Don't know, it seems to annoy you intensely. So much so you can't let it go
