Baden

Comments

I did watch half the first episode of that but don't get the attraction or what's new about it. It's slapstick, right? Anyway, as @"Hanover" would say...

Oh, does my job utilize my education? Sort of. Any additional thoughts? Any academic job will probably suck out your insides to such an extent that wh...
May 25, 2017 at 15:01
Nope. That's about what my Brother has been earning in the most expensive part of the UK (London) over the past 10-15 years and he's saved enough to b...

Ask them for reasons. If they can give you convincing ones, give up the idea. If they can't, suggest they join you.

Poor Mike? Nah. It's the students who stayed who spoiled things. A completely empty room would have been a perfectly apt reflection of the nature of h...

Well @"Baden" was certainly entertained. As far as I know... :B
May 15, 2017 at 20:24
Just a joke. You seem to expect everyone to appreciate yours. So, don't be sour, go fill in some polls or something. Cheer yourself up. (Y)
May 15, 2017 at 20:09
Rather like your memory. Never mind, I'm sure Emptyheaded or whoever he is doesn't care at this point. He's probably too busy trying to figure out how...
May 15, 2017 at 20:03
I hereby publicly admit I was too harsh on @"discoii". I also sent him a PM at the time admitting that. I guess I made a mistake. Wow...
May 15, 2017 at 19:58
Remember this: And yet you're back. @"Emptyheady" must be disappointed. I do know he meant a lot to you though (despite the fact that you keep calling...
May 15, 2017 at 19:55
We modded @"discoii"? Impossible! He's a lefty!
May 15, 2017 at 19:39
In preparation for what? You had already said you had left for good before we took Hanover on. We didn't expect you to come crawling back into our war...

Second the motion. Never liked this blue theme either...
May 15, 2017 at 18:48
Gotcha.
May 15, 2017 at 18:36
Don't know. Can we fire him for laziness @"jamalrob"?
May 15, 2017 at 18:35
Don't expect an answer to any question that puts me in the position of having to compliment Hanover..
May 15, 2017 at 18:28
Danish?? I'm Irish. Maybe you mean Benkei who's Dutch and no longer a mod. Anyway 5:3 Europe : Non-Europe. Not a huge imbalance, I'd say.
May 15, 2017 at 18:23
We need to introduce tutorials or something now that we're getting all diverse and stuff. ;)
May 15, 2017 at 18:17
I wouldn't worry. Up until today he didn't even know how to delete a post.
May 15, 2017 at 18:13
Well, we can't win then can we? If we don't bring on more mods with different perspectives, we lack diversity; if we do, it's just a ploy to trick peo...
May 15, 2017 at 17:55
Because philosophers and those interested in philosophy such as you would find on a philosophy forum tend to be less religious than the general public...
May 15, 2017 at 17:24
Well, to answer your point, not all the mods are lefty. Most are irreligious I guess although I can't speak for all. But then that's hardly a surprise...
May 15, 2017 at 17:09
@"Hanover" is an irreligious lefty?...Maybe there is hope for our relationship yet! (Y)
May 15, 2017 at 17:01
(And note the irony of you accusing someone else of "Playing the victim much"!)
May 15, 2017 at 16:46
I deleted your last post directed at her and her last post directed at you. Seems fair to me. ? Your posts had no political content. One started with:...
May 15, 2017 at 16:45
Ironic hearing that coming from Thorongil, one of the site's major right wingers who I never even remember moderating. Although I think his comment wa...
May 15, 2017 at 16:37
I suggest the solution to issues like this in future is simple @"Agustino", stay on topic.
May 15, 2017 at 15:56
I've now deleted Noble Dust's comments too by the way as they're also replies to your deleted comment.

Isn't the answer obvious? Send a PM. A short personal argument may be tolerated in a discussion but if it goes on too long, it's going to be cut off. ...
May 15, 2017 at 15:35
Two I remember deleting. The continuation of the argument against Timeline was deleted for being off-topic and derailing. The joke in the pornography ...

So, are we at the core of Jesus's teaching yet? (Compare and contrast.)

What a dumb bunch of bumpkins this administration are anyway. Can't even come up with a consistent set of lies. They are to Machiavellianism what deep...

Some politicians shoot themselves in the foot. Trump goes straight for his own head. SAD!!!
May 11, 2017 at 18:05
I think you've already made up your mind on your problem so it's probably safe to give you advice now, which is you've nothing to gain by opening up a...

Stephen Fry was very recently investigated for blasphemy in Ireland. He could have faced a criminal prosecution. Thankfully the case was dropped as "n...

Yes, it's ending very well in counties like Australia, Holland, Canada etc who have robust economies, healthcare systems far better than the US (just ...

With few exceptions, you vote for whatever or whoever business wants you to vote for. Feel free to use whatever phrasing makes that sound like a virtu...
May 09, 2017 at 11:44
Yes, but all of this was at its peak during the long campaign leading up to the vote. I would expect the immediate aftermath of the referendum to have...
May 09, 2017 at 05:28
Yes, voters know a dead duck when they see one, and under Nuttall UKIP is quacking up (Hoho!). jamalrob may be right about the hate crimes though. I n...

Now that you've got annoyed about them being annoyed, I suppose it's now their turn to be annoyed at you being annoyed at them being annoyed. Any take...
May 06, 2017 at 03:11
Hanover's senile blatherings have got me worried. As a solution, can we make the writing on the card VERY big. I guess Medicare will take care of the ...
May 03, 2017 at 13:39
I'm a bit confused now. Has Hanover funded a cancer ward or opened a soup kitchen or what? And I take it due to age and infirmity he's retiring? We do...
May 03, 2017 at 12:44
I'm pretty sure he meant the bit about not coming back. In which case the horse has bolted, and there's not much point playing around with the stable ...
