Opinions are like assholes

No, it's your opinion:

Given that the opinions of people who know us IRL were unanimously that we weren’t being selfish, I think that’s our answer

Must be nice being psychic and being able to tell what people's motivations are for doing things. Can you also post up the numbers for the Euromillions tonight pls?

Registered with the kennel club? Sorry, but they're lifting your leg. They may have bred something in the past that was registered, but your Cockapoo certainly won't be. They may have been reputable breeders previously, but they're now cashing in on an Instagram fad.

I'm with you on the MIL thing by the way. Your house, your rules, but diplomacy reigns supreme with this sort of stuff.

You seem to be getting snippy. I'm simply going on what you said. If you meant to say something else, you're welcome to (once again) clarify.

Anyway, aren't you supposed to be incredibly busy?

Sorry, should have clarified - they breed poodles and schnausers. No registration for this one of course as it's a mutt 🙂

Nope, finding this quite amusing. You said I didn't come here for advice. I said that's your opinion. You said nope, it's your opinion. I've previously said (a couple of times now) that I considered the opinions people posted up but it seems to have become fairly evenly split. Given that you'd therefore pretty much get the same result from flipping a coin a bunch of times, it doesn't seem unreasonable to side with the advice of people who know us IRL.

The day before I go on holiday is usually the most stressful for me, and generally I never get stressed about work, are you sure you're as important in the workplace as you suggest? 🙂

Sometimes is, sometimes isn't. Nature of the beast in consultancy, this time the stars have aligned nicely in terms of workload 🙂

Don't believe I said that I thought I was important anywhere? Just that the job can be stressful. One of the most stressful jobs I ever had was working as a waiter and I could have been replaced by pretty much anyone off the street in that job.

I didn't say you said you were.

So is it the subtle difference between said and suggest?
