You may choose to infer that meaning of it so you can groundlessly suggest that I think Danny is a bigot and a redneck. But there is no such implication in the post.Quote:

And that snip was what you regarded as the most pertinent point from Danny's missive.
This is what you wrote. Fair enough if it is not what you intended, but it's just a familiar refrain.
"From your perspective, he's one of 'us' doing something which pissed 'them' off, and you're pleasantly surprised and happy to play it down, just as they are outraged and happy to play it up."
Barnes contradicted that on twitter too. Said he didn't call for a new flag, just to agree on one of the existing ones.
Existing ones?Quote:

I can't wait.
Tbf, my 'point' is a consistent one, on the basis DI has done it so frequently, in that context...
Whilst geysir's last post was a good example of his capabilities, done with equal ruthlessness.
I didn't say you said Danny was a bigot and a redneck. I just said that you said he had a bigoted perspective and was as bad as the bigots and rednecks.Quote:

Afternoon all. Is this still the Rory McIlroy pullover thread? Seems to have taken a cavalier direction recently.
The Fly's right, I just can't resist a predictable knob gag...
Jack said he can win "15 or 20 majors." Kiss of death. No uncircumcised man will ever beat Jack's majors record!

Anyway, 116 (so far) reasons to read this as a local theme park tries to find a new fleg...

Speaking of theme parks you chaps should visit my friend the worm in chicago. Six flags has a roller coaster called goliath you all would love. Irish people love roller coasters. Irish people love six flags.
You do more than just agree, and I thought boot licking less crude. ;)Quote:
