Charlie - and you are so much better qualified than me to have an opinion on a piece of music? You fail to understand this

But hey ho - what do I know
You like others on here just like an excuse to jump in and give a good kicking.

So tell me - how are you qualified to call me ignorant?

Well, I may be wrong, but I suspect most people would be offended by being called "gullible and credulous" But maybe I'm just over-sensitive.

TandemJeremy - Member

was ALWAYS going to provoke a negative reaction

you were trolling, whether for attention or just for kicks I dunno. But you WERE trolling.

actually I wasn't - just typing quicker than I thought and not thinking about how what I typed would be perceived.

And there it is - we started with the Edinburgh Variation, and finish (cross fingers, touch wood) with the Edinburgh Defence, from the original master.

like i said - been on here too long not know this. Still calling [b]troll[/b]. Won't be admitted as once the edinburgh defence has been committed it cannot be retracted.

Has anyone seen any of the work of Bjork's partner, Matthew Barney? I endured (in the nicest possible way!) his Cremaster Cycle a few years ago - the only time I've ever felt like I'd taken drugs after watching cinema. Much of it went way over (and under) my head; but the experience was fascinating.

Indeed and I apologise for that.

Call me a liar if you want - it was not a troll - its was me unthinkingly saying what I thought. This is not "the edinburgh defense" I have never done that and find the accusations of lying offensive.

Charlie - and you are so much better qualified than me to have an opinion on a piece of music?

Perhaps not, but then again I didn't offer one, but it wasn't just music about which you opined either, you went on to offer your opinion about art too.

You fail to understand this

But hey ho - what do I know

I fully understand that, I just have trouble reconciling it with

Its only an opinion. A [b]strong one perhaps[/b] but its all it is

You like others on here just like an excuse to jump in and give a good kicking.

Not at all, I, perhaps like others are have just had enough about you spouting shite about stuff when you haven't got a clue. When you speak from an informed or less dogmatic point of view, you'll find I don't jump in a give a kicking.

So tell me - how are you qualified to call me ignorant?

Well, I don't need to be qualified to call you ignorant. However, if you admit to it yourself, like this

But hey ho - what do I know

then I'm only taking your word for it.

Yup - sometimes - as I did here. Type and click send.

I do not lie. I do not post in seriousness and then later claim it was all a big joke.

I do however post intemperately, impetuously and unthinkingly fairly frequently

You accuse us of lying ALL THE **** TIME and no, it's not nice at all. Please don't do it to us in future!

i don't think TJ is a liar actually, he definitely gets steamed up to the point where he HAS TO KEEP ARGUING TO WIN, but then so do many, many others.

I think a few of us resemble that remark, but there's a difference between arguing a considered and honestly held case, and banging off some abuse and then trying to prop it up with [i]ex post facto[/i] bulldust.

of course, but someone who posts [b][i]intemperately, impetuously and unthinkingly fairly frequently[/i][/b] is far, far more likely to find themselves in that position on a regular basis.

Charlie - you keep saying that. It doesn't make it true. More consistent negative posting from you

I do not lie, I do not make things up

I will however simply ignore you in future as you are dull and negative all the time.

Any words of wisdom from the massive - I've never really like Bjork but the descriptions of the live shows sound amazing. Worth going to for the visuals and other fx?

If not, I guess what you said earlier is not true.

possibly just teeny weeny little ones that you can slip on a plate hidden under a lettuce leaf so's no one will notice, then you pat yourself on the back revelling in your smugness at getting away with some pork pie related fraud
