1. Get the fuck over it
2. Not really, because there was a joke in it this time.

This is your arguement?
After the preaching you did the other day?

Well thats all respect lost for you then, principled one day and not the next? That makes you a twat

Mykey,
my address is 102 Grace Road, Leicester.
If you want to upset me, post me some shit, or come round and beat me up. Don't bore everyone else with it.

You really are a twat

Oh come on
lets not start on this again.

I think the difference is that links to a BBC site and some comment like "unsurprising it was an Asian" isn't very funny and there'd been a few of them.

It's not the language that people were objecting to it was the tone.

Made me laugh too,
with it's clever use of an offensive term.

Besides which, you never had any respect for Robin.

Perhaps
but if you're going to go off on one like that and then the next day do it yourself then it does make you look foolish

It's not even vaguely the same thing
And honestly now you're making yourself look a bit foolish and today has been a good laugh.

I live my life by a very simple motto: If everyone thinks I'm being a cunt, I'm probably being a cunt.

It works. It means if 1-2 ppl think I'm out of order then fuck them. If more do then maybe I need to look at what I'm doing.

But hold on
you're quite a reasonable guy, and I think you're a cunt. Mind you, I'm a cunt.

Oh, and this ^

1. It wasn't me who started it the other day.
2. I wasn't the only one not on your side.

Despite (1) and (2) I seem to be the person you're blaming for it.

3. My problem was with your being arbitrarily offensive thinking doing so was funny in itself, without tying in any jokes or cleverness to compensate.
4. This is really, really boring for everyone else.
5. I really don't enjoy arguing with you any more than I'd enjoy bleeding if I got stabbed. It's no achievement to cause it.
6. You probably don't enjoy it either.
7, and most importantly, it's really, really boring for everyone else.

edit: Mathematical proof that 7 = 4.
