I'll wager there's no-one on EDF who has ever met a Colour Blind Woman but, apparently, its around 12% of Men. Out of those Colour Blind Guys, 98% are "Red/Green" and 2% "Yellow/Blue"..

Its a shame that I can drive as well as anyone for nearly 30 years withoutany problems worth mentioning and yet would not be able to be a Police Response Driver, due to Red/Green colour blindness that has never affected my driving, in the least. Snooker balls could be a problem, occassionally, as I had to keep an eye on the position of the Brown Ball, at all times, as you'll understand. I always remember Nasim Ali saying to me in 1974 at The NCB that I was a "little monkee" when I told her, genuinely (!), that "it was great that we have changed the ribbon on the adding machine as, not only, do we still have (=) and (-) on the roll but The Debits are now in Black and The Credits are in Red!", they, apparently, were always like that on the previous ribbon and I had not realised all the months that I had been there as the ribbon was fading.. She thought I was joking when I was being entirely serious, as no-one realised that I was colour blind.

Don't mind me saying but your "ripostes" are getting lamer by the sentence AR. Ironic comment by you about "checking the content"...Nice Touch! p.s. ..."chump, M8." So we ARE M8's NOW!! Make up your bleedin' mind before I depart!

Atila Reincarnate Wrote: "Do you know what I couldn't care less what you think" Admittedly we DID get off to a shaky start but with that kind of AT-TI-TUDE you will do for me AR. I'm beginning to warm to you, I reckon we could be "M8's" yet, you know. ,... it wasn't meant for you, but you took upon yourself to assume it was. That's called paranoia or some would it call a feeling of self importance. But I want to see the trick that makes me disappear, you must be very clever to perform tricks like that. Paranoia...PARANOIA, Ruddy PARANOIA????????? Who said I'm "PARANOID":X WHO, WHO??????:X:X

Atila Reincarnate Wrote: I'm not your M8, very street cred, nor would I wish to be. Your too tough for me. Talking of "cheeks" my tongue was very firmly in mine when I made that comment! "I'm not your M8"... ....AT-TI-TUDE!!! I like it. I see you don't take any sh*t from anyone AR. p.s. Don't mind me referring to this, but when one attended The Elephant and Castle's finest Educational Establishments one learnt that it is correct to say "You're" too tough, as in "You are", NOT "your" as in "your possessions etc"... I trust you don't mind me mentioning that little faux pas, as it seems to be a night full of them AR. p.p.s. Please can you be my "M8" as I LOVE a Man with AT-TI-TUDE.(tu)

Atila Reincarnate Wrote: Make me disappear, my son??? Are you Danny Dyer, or just another cockney wannabe???. God I'm quaking, you are far too rough for me, I give up. Absolutely no need to worry about me AR! One was Born in The Elephant and Castle so pretty much a cockney, though one prefers the term "Londoner" (don't bother giving me the technical definition of a "cockney" as I already know it). "By the way Oh intelligent one, my original posting was a response to the person who created the thread not you. NOw go and take your medication and take a well earned nap in a darkened room, there's a good chap." YEAH RIGHT! No entry on here for nearly 8 hours and you "just happen" to make that comment 4 minutes after mine. I believe you, though millions wouldn't!:)) I bid you farewell, Sweet Prince.

Join the queue Anna! Our old M8 Atila was going on about his arse earlier on this thread, yesterday, but then again he's probably gone off him now as his now going on about MY arse on the online dating thread. So the coast is clear for you and Phil Brown:))

Atila Reincarnate Wrote: "Jesus you just performed a magic trick...... you disappeared up your own arse!!!! Well done." I'll try and do another magic trick and make YOU become INVISIBLE too, My Son! p.s. You do FINALLY get the point about the INVISIBLE question to someone bemoaning the fact that they get asked "a set of INVISIBLE questions" don't you AR? .....and to think if you had been perceptive enough torealise that it was all a jolly little jape we would never have commenced our enjoyable little diatribe....:))

Atila Reincarnate Wrote: "Thanks for yours to, as you seem to have an opinion of your self worth and value to the forum which is far higher than anyone else places upon it." No need to compound your mistaken assumption by giving a personal and defensive reply AR!:)) Lets analyse it, shall we, as you have chosen to pursue this. Firstly you reply to a question stating "Seeing as how you're asking" when I was NOT "asking". Secondly no-one was asking you anything, in any event. Thirdly, you were downright rude stating .."I don't give a toss". Fourthly, you missed the "joke", in the first place!:):( Fifthly, you make a personal, judgemental attack to someone who has NEVER corresponded with you on any thread prior to this one, when YOU initiated it! Your opinions and views are neither desired or required by me as quite frankly HUNey "I don't give a toss" as you so eloquently and cogently phrased it. Other than that those 2 combined lines that you wrote were fine>:D<

Atila Reincarnate Wrote: ------------------------------------------------------- > Re: Online dating: what do we think? Seeing as how > you're asking....................I don't give a > toss. I wasn't "asking" you or anybody else. I, equally, couldm't give a toss about your views on online dating. Its not something I've ever had to do and I had not contributed to this thread, accordingly. So you have replied to a question that I did not ask you or anybody else inthe first place. Given your rather aggressive attitude "HUNey" I'll S-L-O-W-L-Y explain it to you so you don't repeat your error. Huguenot was talking about an "INVISIBLE SET OF QUESTIONS" so I asked him an INVISIBLE QUESTION! So your rather rude comment was totally unnecessary but Thanks for your irrelevant and meaningless contribution anyway.

Huguenot: Sorry M8 but you are getting sillier and sillier and not half as quick-witted as I assumed. Your PM was ridiculous. I did not come back to you on that other thread because it would have been GENUINELY too easy and I DID let it go. (Oh! The irony of your PM!)..I was not going to reply at all to that, but I've have just come back from a wondrous day in The Beautiful English Coutryside and at the moment I can't be assed Matey. Any more nonsense from you and I WILL revive that other thread and ridicule your points, one-by-one. Problem is, that I NOT YOU, who will get the flak, if we deflect the post from the Subject matter so its the complete opposite of what you said in your PM i.e I DID "let it go". Do you know the SUPREME IRONY H?..the above was a gentle joke O PRECIOUS ONE!.... Your point, in the very last sentence b4 my comment, was about internet dating and you said ... "I felt I was being judged against an INVISIBLE set of questions. So I continued that theme, by implying there was a question written INVISIBLY...DO YOU GET IT NOW? It was a friendly joke which either went over your head or you chose to take the wrong way! GIVE ME STRENGTH M8!

Huguenot-- What do you think?

Nice One Kel!:)) I loved "10" in particular.

I was promised 2 portions of Jelly if I went to The Circus, in around 1959. Haven't had Jelly or been to the Circus since, even managing to turn away an inviting "?1 Off" Voucher for Zippos Circus in my local chippie t'other day..
