You certainly haven’t stated anything that would prove that the way ESR and other lads like him speak is part of some linguistic drift.

Not got the time to dive into it right now, but if you manage to find a way around the paywall, then this paper is a good read* on the emergence of MLE in particular: https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/...1.2011.00478.x

You interceded on a grown up conversation to make a silly remark and tried to dress it up as profound, you didn’t like when it was turned round on you.

So you retreated back to the kiddy’s table

:lol:

The grown up conversation you think you are having is neither grown up, or insightful. The fact me pointing that out twice in different ways didn’t register speaks volumes.

You are possibly the worst poster to have inhabited this desolate place, where your views will echo in the darkness for eternity, because I very much doubt you would have the bollocks to shout any of the crap you post in any other public place.

I assume you say the same shit to your mates and they applaud your intellect. Or you could just be defecating on the internet to make yourself feel important.

The reason some of us still post here is to have a laugh at how stupid and ignorant people are. Congats, you win top prize. Now jog along will you.

I’m not going to lie, that remark really cut me deep

Only possibly?

What this place is good for is for middle aged guys (like myself and presumably like yourself) to screw around without having to bother with the narcissists who inhabit the more contemporary aspects of the internet.

It’s not the Oxford Union debate, if I want to spew hyperbolic vitriol about Arteta what better place than here.

For someone who wants to come here for a laugh (bit of a dry well) you do seem to take yourself very seriously.

If I’m in the mood for constructive debate I might engage in it, if I’m just here to amuse myself (and please believe me the fact that you find me risible will do nothing to temper that) then I’ll do so

As for me being forgotten about? Who cares?. Last time I was here before I hurriedly departed for four years…I was summed up as a cunt (the best epitaph anyone could hope for on a football forum)

Ah, a wind up merchant. Who would have thought.

Ever think about another 4 year break?

Bellingham to join Real Madrid for potentially 115m.

I only just heard we're definitely not selling ESR - I guess whoever supplies the club with pies will be happy
