They Say You Should Never

[Ping]

Asking me what?

[baboon]

Asking me what?

Are you back again? What do you want this time?

[Ping]

Why, what makes you think I left?

[baboon]

Was it the fact your name disappeared from the active list?

xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

Baboon,according to you Ping disappeared from the active list!why is he still on the member list?

[baboon]

Great. So now I have two pedants to deal with, do I?

[AlexLah]

This is just getting confusing the more I read and follow this topic.

Does anyone here actually know what we are talking about?

[baboon]

I do. Whats your problem? :D

[Ping]

Alex, what would you like to talk about?

[luckyluke]

Alex, what would you like to talk about?

xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

Ping,if Alex does not answer,can we carry on?

[Ping]

Wouldn't it be rude? Shouldn't we wait?

[baboon]

Wait for what?

[Ping]

Don't you mean 'Wait for whom'?

[chiliwasabi]

Are you an expert on the English language?

[Ping]

I thought expert = 'X is an unknown factor and spurt is a drip under pressure'. No?

[AlexLah]

Thank you all for sort of waiting for me, sorry had a bizz dinner so I am home late.

My question is/was that I am not clear what we are talking about due to the many counter questions asked.

So I would like to know what the purpose of this topic is.

In other words: "What would we/he/she like to achieve by bringing up this topic"

[Ping]

Alex, what do you suggest that we try to achieve? Should we aim for the record for the thread with the greatest number of totally inane postings? Isn't that something worth achieving?

[baboon]

Ping, how dare you suggest this thread is inane?

[Ping]

Good point Baboon - what the heck was I thinking?

[baboon]

Why not reflect and then post back telling us what you were thinking?

[Ping]

What would you suggest as a suitable period of time for reflection?

[chiliwasabi]

Five minutes should be enough. What do you think?

[luckyluke]

Five minutes should be enough. What do you think?

xxxxxxxxxx

Five minutes should be ok for standard people,but for TV members?

[Ping]

I have done some serious reflecting. It took many hours. The mirror did not appreciate it. Trouble is, I took so long reflecting, that I forgot what I was reflecting about. Does anyone remember?

[AlexLah]

I think I got it!!!!

This is about when you are asked a question and know or dunno the answer if it then is a good tactic to answer the question with another question without answering the question directly with a question that answers the question, am I right?

[Ping]

Could you repeat that, but more s-l-o-w-l-y?

[baboon]

Were you not reflecting on the point of this thread?

[chiliwasabi]

Why is there a need to reflect about this thread?

[Ping]

Upon reflection, was there a need to reflect? Would it serve any useful purpose? Indeed, am I entitled to reflect? Would the Allied Mirrors & Reflective Objects Union not consider this a valid issue of demarcation?

(And as I type this, I am wondering does a thread get any more juvenile than this one? Is this the issue I was reflecting upon when I got into strife with the Allied Mirrors & Reflective Objects Union?)

Well, at least this thread is Thai-related... isn't it?
