Um, that was in Off The Wall, which is known to be a bit.. er, off the wall? |

And idiotic as that post was, he wasn't directing his idiocy at another |
| 16 |
user. (I didn't read the whole thread, admittedly, nor am I about to.) |

I was slapped down recently just for asking a guy who'd had an extended |
| 19 |
whinge/ rant whether he felt all right. I wasn't even trying to belittle |
| 20 |
him, I just wanted him to see his feelings were out of context. That's all, |
| 21 |
just asking "Blimey, are you feeling all right?" |
| 22 |
|

Hmm maybe that does sound a bit sarcy on reflection (tho it wasn't meant) |
| 24 |
but it's the height of civilisation compared to what is "perfectly |
| 25 |
acceptable" in /this/ forum. |
