To be fair I think LM may have been confused by the syntax/grammar employed by Brendan. Had he said "what up with that, man" [note my insertion of the comma] his meaning may have been clearer, no?

Well there's no need to get all baity about it old thing. Whilst I don't wish to pick a fight with the [allegedly] scrummiest male forumite, I am obliged to point out that had you been "perfectly clear" LM would have not got confused in the first place, but she did, so you weren't.

Ambiguity is most strongly construed against the party using it: Ambiguitas contra stipulatorem est.

Yes dear. Of course it does. It has been shown to all that despite someone saying you confused them, you did not cause any confusion. Well done you!

    • The BBC is one of the finest, if not the finest, broadcasters in the world.  They have been admired by many across the world for their journalism.  There have been numerous arrests since their recent expose on convenience shops that cover ups for criminals - money laundering, contraband,  illegal workers and the like. By no means perfect and some of what they have done in the modern world is questionable - the website often comes across as tabloid or sensationalist, as do some of their documentaries, and at times it is full of low grade game shows, fly on the wall etc which bring the punters and money, including overseas, in but is not quality TV.  In their desperation for 'balance' they've given too much air time and credibility to some more extreme views, which contributed to Brexit and some of the rise in right wing parties.  I wish they'd say 'the convicted criminal' every time they talk about Yaxley Lenon. The programme was clumsy, why it didn't go through proper clearance including the lawyers, I don't know.  But it created zero stir at the time. Zero.  And had no impact on the election, so Trump has no case.  I hope they don't cave in like many of the US corporations and media.  Oh and well done to South Park using the small p*nis defence in ridiculing him. What I expect is as the Beeb is pretty centrist in it;s reporting in riles some of those who thrive on the toxic populism we have seen since Trump mark 1 and Brexit.  How sad.
