RogerC Posted November 16, 2017 Share Posted November 16, 2017 John52 - 2017-11-16 8:18 AMI thought this was obvious, but in view of previous replies perhaps it isn't to everybody?If you make the characters look too life like there is the possibility they could resemble a real person.Then they might be insulted by it. Actually, accepting that your name image is of you I reckon some of those statues might have been modelled on your fine physique.... :-) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

However as you used it in 'computer land' the definition is as I posted not something that came from your lala land book of irrelevances and distortions.

As you are in Norway maybe you have gone 'home' for a holiday?

John52 Posted November 17, 2017 Share Posted November 17, 2017 Well I suppose your attempt to change the subject to an irrelevant and silly argument over emoticon/icon is the nearest I will get to an admission you are wrong. :-S Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

However please keep it up because it makes my day so very much better knowing you make Victor Meldrew look like the epitome of happiness. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I responded by trying to explain they looked like 'lego figures' because if they were too lifelike they might resemble a real person. Who would not want to be mistaken for one of Her Majesty's soldiers who opened fire on the unarmed civil rights protestors who won what freedoms you and I enjoy today. I didn't answer whether or not they are made with Plumbers Mait because I didn't know whether you were serious or just trolling again. So which was it? Did you really think the Preston Martyrs Statue was made of Plumbers Mait? Were you trying to make fun of the Preston Martyrs who voluntarily risked and lost their lives for your freedoms. (not conscripted and/or paid like Her Majesty's Armed Forces)? Or were you just trolling again? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That was the first paragraph , any views or thoughts on the second one regarding your sweeping 'compulsory' comments that I alluded to?..........or are you adopting the usual John 52 selective answering out of context method of reply? BTW - the Plumbers Mait quip was a bit tongue in cheek - So be absolutely clear on this John, I would not disrespect the PM statue or what it stands for....unlike your 'compulsory wearing' tirade which has sparked this thread. On the other hand I don't have any compunction in disrespecting your views though. Sadly, it appears that you are the one unable to show any respect to public figures wearing a poppy or indeed those from the media. Your [usual] assumptions were at best crass with your 'compulsory wearing' thread and lets face, it apart from the wrong date, and confusing FIFA and the FA are totally unfounded.
