We have only spouted facts, you are the one who is labelling everyone on this site, you are so wrapped up in your own perceived reverence you are totally blind to reality, get down off your high horse & start mixing with real people & then you will discover who the secretive closed communities are.

Hey Davey. ...

....Your judgement of me does not define me, it defines you.

I couldn't see what much of the fuss is as surely most night workers eat at night and don't eat during the day because they are sleeping.

Hmmmmmmmmmmmmmm.

Interesting.

Seriously, Andrew. You knew the sort of reaction you were going to get when you created this thread.

The last time our beloved moderator bothered his fat arse to do a 'BIRD Annual Awards', you were named as the 'Forum's Most Inciteful Poster' (although there was some disagreement as to whether 'inciteful' is actually a word). Now I wonder why that was.:whi5tl:

Tell me how the first post 'incited' some of the following posts that just launched into anti Muslim tirade? I admire the concept of Ramadan. And stand by that view. Please don't make me responsible for the postings of others. If you want to hear a regret from me it is that when the post was hijacked in such a manner I wished I hadn't started the thread and if I remember correctly said as much.

Of course I don't make you responsible for what other people post. However, you've been a member here a long time; you know full well that any mention of certain topics is going to provoke a reaction, usually unfavourable.

So do you want some topics no go zones?

Personally I wouldn't want to go there, despite disagreeing very strongly with some. Of the views expressed in this thread for instance.

On a lighter note, Russfaefyvie posted a post that I would have thought would interest Bird owners and motorcyclists in general a day or two bAck and got next to no response. The irony is noteworthy.:dunno:

Nah, we'd end up not being able to talk about anything. Thing is though, some topics will always generate more heated response than others. Start a thread on how awesome Sir Alex Ferguson was as a manager and see how long it takes Dezza to start hurling (bitter and twisted) abuse. See what I mean? :-0)

Of course people won't respond to Russ. When did you ever think that this was a motorcycle forum? :-0) That said, this is the Coffee Shop, where general bollocks is discussed. I wonder if more would have responded if Russ had posted in another section, such as Missions Accomplished? However, the irony is indeed noteworthy.
