Wow, so I guess my rather obvious (as in DUH!) predictions of the nailed on inevitability chapped your arse too? What "reality" would you prefer?Quote:

It might even provoke imagination in the normally unthinking herd.Quote:

So on his account I hoped for the same, even though I realised a win would have created daylight at the top of the table and was therefore impossible. Still, it's the thought that counts.
I refer you to my previous postQuote:

The very apotheosis of supporting a club is hoping for the best no matter what the reality, it’s like a disappointing child that you still love unconditionally. It’s hilarious that you seem to think you’ve stolen a March on people here in that respect.
I literally come on here as a form of distraction….at least 50% of why I say is utterly hyperbolic because I can vent and be a total unreconstructed tit because no one here is ever going to know me in real life to form an impression of me.
You kind of behave like you’re being summoned here against your will
Not sure what you are on about really. I barely comment on Arsenal any more. The odd few occasions I do usually follow the odd few occasions I watch a game or part of a game. The same as anyone else here I sometimes share my opinion, I haven't seen a prerequisite to share such opinions in a joyful manner. When the team plays well I'll say so. When they play poorly I'll say so. If a player has performed well I might point it out. When they are shite I call them shite. It's a simple formula, Because the team has scarcely played well in over a decade it might appear I limit myself to reporting poor performance, but short of distorting the reality I am bound by it if I want to remain accurate.Quote:

That's where I have mainly posted.
It seems, prompted by a strange individual's tendency to mention me across the forum, you feel I should stop posting because I have nothing positive to report on the odd occasion I speak about an inferior football club or the strange individual in question. You are entitled to your opinion but it's one I won't be taking onboard at this time. I would suspect we all post here as some form of distraction from activities that are likely more useful in the grand scheme. I sometimes scan with no intention of posting. But something I see might perk my interest. It's not a hard and fast plan. As for here as opposed to real life, I have no doubt whatsoever the people here are very much similar in real life, perhaps not in the language they deploy, but certainly in character. For example, it would be too difficult for certain people to play at being so thoroughly ignorant or deluded over such a prolonged period. The act would slip.
Anyway, that's a strange post, more about you than me but thanks all the same.
I don’t feel you should do anything. I just wonder why you continue to come back hereQuote:

There’s no Pre-requisite of any kind, but I find as I get older I try and keep the things I derive nothing productive from to an absolute bare minimum.
So you’re saying you go off on interminable rambling homilies at length in real life too? Crikey
There's another way of looking at it which has the benefit of relevance and context. See what the little shit has managed to "provoke" in a match thread? Maybe another thing to wonder about? While he sits back and watches you mirror me keystroke by keystroke, it might be said I'm not the only one so provoked. I guess you must find it productive, at a bare minimum.Quote:

If it was a one-off occurrence it'd be a stretch to call him out for his repetitive behaviour. But we only have to reach as far as the match thread from last week. We can extend at leisure back through his own sustained habit. It's all a joke, as I'm sure you know. Except when others do it. Indeed, our champion of sincerity often tells us how we "all know" posters that fell under his ban hammer were shameless WUMs.
Aren'y we lucky to have a character of such integrity at the helm?
I’m here because I openly admit a personality flaw in which I love to have the last wordQuote:

You seem to think you’re living rent free in his head, and instead he’s living rent free in yours.
Basically get over yourself, this place has always been a free for all…and I’m too aware that I spend far too much time engaged in arguments with strangers who’s opinion matters nothing to me.
Surely it stands to reason though, that there’s no possible reason for you to give a fuck what Letters says, whether he invokes you like a dead relative.
Whatever I say about that Scottish prat, at least he has the good sense not to rise to my attempts to bait him
Projection coated in fake humility. Or I can type that in all caps if it will help your case?Quote:

Please don’t tell me you’re that deluded to think you are offering anything new or insightful on here. You accuse me of false humility, no it’s just self reflection I don’t imagine for a second that my presence here enhances understanding or discussion for anyone. I genuinely have to believe that no one is that conceited to believe that they are.
However I will say that now the time has come to stop replying here on something that is completely off topic to what the post was intended for. I’m not going to blame Letters for the fact that I did so in the first place, it’s on me.
You don't really need to wonder because we've had this conversation a million times.Quote:

You're a miserable bastard so the joke is you'll be happy now we've lost a game. Ahahaha. It's not a very good joke. I'm not expecting to be headlining at the O2 with my groundbreaking standup. Were Zim still alive I'd have picked him - as I have many times in the past. That's it.
Your trouble is you can't help but infer malicious intent or ulterior motive from everyone, which is the root cause of you being wrong about all the things you've been wrong about over the last couple of years which we've been through in some detail elsewhere.
:tiphat:
true, ultimately though that's why it's probably better to ignore NQ altogether rather than mention him in posts - you have heard that line about "ignore them for long enough and they go away" haven't you? :lol:Quote:

i also like the way he constantly says he gave up watching Arsenal years ago only to pop up and 'happen' to have seen some or all of the latest game...
it's attention seeking at it's finest/worst (can't make my mind up which :shrug:)
New or insightful? I don't know, others would have to decide that. But certainly an alternative to the steady beat plus a reminder to remember the past and compare it to the present.Quote:
