This is a question "Needless to say, I had the last laugh"

Celebrity autobiographies are filled to the brim with self-righteous tales of smug oneupmanship. So, forget you had any shame, grab a coffee and a croissant, and tell us your smug tales of when you got one over somebody.

Thanks to Ring of Fire for the suggestion

I'm doing very well (although I've upset people below with my trannie post)

Saw That
Ignore the fuckers. Good tale, well told.

Wicca'd Witch, Amorous Badger's missus, is a fag-hag. Well known for it. She had a pop at me a while ago over a post by a gay guy where I'd replied and she had me down as a homophobe, possibly a racist, probably a child-molester and, in any case, waay inferior to her brand of super sensitive, politicly-correct intelligence. Ignore her. Or, if she gets really annoying, throw a pie near her. Instinct will take over and she'll be too busy wolfing it down to bother you...

Cheers

Have you noticed political correctness and pie-eating often go together.
I'm not fussed really, but I do dislike the guy with a jumble of letters for a name trying to attribute stuff to me. I don't really have a dislike of anyone or anything, but I do feel free to mock everyone without half-wit pc fools taking terms literally and as being serious.

I get grief for being slightly porky, bald, white (my black friends naturally assume I have a tiny willy) and you can imagine, in a salesroom, the grief I get with my dug and crime history. I find it fun, and banter, and the day I take the huff at being accused of selling my colleague's lost passport for crack, or for being a fat ginge, or telling me not to queue up twice for injections (vaccines), then that, my friend, is the day I see life as being colourless.

Mockery and teasing is an essential part of life. Even now, in adult life, a bad haircut can cause years of teasing and unflattering nicknames. And a good thing, too.

Do you remember that one of mine a couple of years back that caused all the kerfuffle?

Ahhhhhhh...the Top Gear defence.

A perfectly legitimate one (and the haircut reference is directly from Clarkson).
Teasing is fun. It keeps people sharp, and is tremendously entertaining. It is also a good way to ensure that people don't take themselves too seriously and become self righteous bores.

People take themselves too seriously, bitch about being insulted and having hurt feelings, and it's a crock of shit, and it means that people's opinions are given too much credibility. Respect is fine, but nothing in this world should be sacred and immune from mockery (although there is a fine line between that and bullying/abuse, on occasion).

Look at London's gang culture. People can't take a joke. Result - lots of shootings and violence.

In the workplace or general life; People get all arsey and try to sue for nothing. It's indicative of people's refusal to take responsibility for their own lives - instead of dealing with things between one another, this leads to people having pointless bureacracy, silly legal stuff and government legislation on issues that don't oncern them.

All in all, without teasing the world would be a poorer place.

AB - you tease people with clearly made up, terrible posts. Your mockery (while inspiring a load of divs that haven't got your ability, sadly) has got rid of a lot of the worst posts (and those from teens who have nothing to say). A clear benefit of teasing, from you, right there.

Your old posts about "rudder" - more teasing (and fairly hurtful to the victim no doubt, although very very funny)...

What happens at work - you're a nurse, in an NHS hospital, I believe; the people I know that work in hospitals are usually full of incredibly inappropriate jokes and comments, and are hideously rude to each other. This, I understand, makes a healthy working environment. Please do correct me if I'm wrong, but I cannot imagine you don't join in with banter; do you sit on the sidelines, making notes for the next staff meeting?

Hear fucking
hear.

Being offended is a symptom of lacking the wit to retort.

Might I remind the honorable gentlemen of

Still true, all of it.
You ruined this site for me and a lot of veteran regulars. You were never cruel enough to offend me --few people are-- but you relentlessly and expertly deepthroated the fun out of my posting-cock till it could only spurt a dribble of sadness and disappointment. Your endless war of attrition and obsession with calling out popular posters drove away some entertaining writers. You're consumed by the notion that exaggeration or an imagination somehow gets in the way of a good story. It's the fucking opposite, by the way.

Still, you've built a loyal cult of feeble sycophants devoted to the wretched mission. As I recall, cliquishness was one of your main complaints about the old regular posters too... funny old world, hmm?

I like the Archive, and it does highlight some shockingly bad posts, and it's funny
But I agree with almost everything you say - the real problem isn't the AB archive, but the knobs who try to jump all over things that aren't pc or are indicative of opinions/activities they dislike or don't "get."

Try not to get too wound up though, the idiots go nowhere, and we have an ignore button too, if we want to use it. I don't, because I realise that anyone who posts 10,000+ messages a year on a web forum really should get out more, and because most of the people who pick up on this nonsense are fucking geeks (look at their pics!)

You ain't kidding - you should have a look at flickr!
