GammaGlobulin Posted May 4, 2022 Share Posted May 4, 2022 My Dear Friends, if I may be so bold as to address you so: Here, in this forum, we have a historical and still enduring resource which is one that never fails to brighten our days, any time we click on the Farang Pub. This forum has been provided to us newbies for Fun and Entertainment, mostly, and is a forum built on the shoulders of giants who came before us. There is really no doubt that some of the comments posted on this forum are original and surprisingly refreshing, and they often provide everyone here with a much needed chuckle, as well as welcome diversion from time to time, when most needed. Surely, some of you must admit that there are a few talented writers who comment, from time to time, just in order to improve the overall quality of this forum. I suppose that it might be possible to choose to write comments which are apt to improve the general quality of this forum. And, likewise, one might make the decision to post comments which are less helpful in the grand scheme of this Farang Pub. One thing that I often consider when posting a comment on this forum is that there might be "Little Pitchers Having Big Ears" who might also be reading what is written in this space. Speaking of being earnest, then satire is wonderfully suitable for this forum. Maybe we should cloak our satire so deeply that little pitchers have no clue? Also, as regards being collegial, then this need cannot be denied if our forum is to survive and reach its full potential, and remain a forum providing us with some, or more, modicum of pleasure. Here is a quote you might find on the internet: "Children are good and keen listeners to what adults are saying, and sooner or later they will catch on at decoding the metaphors of proverbs whose imagery is less obscure. " No matter how much we try to obscure what we are saying, still, bright children always uncover hidden meanings, and this means that we should be more careful about what we post, just knowing that Little Pitchers Have Big Ears. I have no idea who, or what demographic, might be reading the Farang Pub forum, of course. Best regards, Your budding young writer, here on this forum, Globulin Note: Always be earnest, always glory in satire, if you must, yet write in a way which is representative of writing that your family members would admire. Just a suggestion, of course. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ozimoron Posted May 4, 2022 Share Posted May 4, 2022 What doesn't inspire collegiality is excusing war crimes in the forum with "look over there" and "it's both sides". Sometimes in life there are truths and there are lies the difference needs to be called out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

However, how many here, do you suppose, know the difference between Big G and Little G, physically speaking, of course. I agree with you: Silence is Golden. Still, few of us are capable of holding our tongue when we would most benefit from doing so. Enjoy, my friend: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's just a vain attempt at establishing some kind of air of superiority by the use of supposedly eloquent words. Unfortunately, the result is excessive and meaningless (literally) verbiage.
