    Kaffee:  I want the truth!

    The truth hurts and unfortunately often leads to getting yourself in trouble...

    Very well put.  And this leads to you being reported by people that don't like being proven wrong.  Gotta love the system!

    Got me in trouble too. I see no problem saying "that is a stupid argument". But it seems people read it as "You are stupid" and report me. But I just put that down to them being too stupid to realise there is a difference :)

    LOL Just received an appropriate Twitter post: -

     

    "It's now very common to hear people say "I'm rather offended by that'. As if that gives them certain rights; It's actually more....it's simply a whine. It's no more then a whine. I find that offensive; It has no meaning. It has no purpose. It has no reason to be respected as a phrase. 'I am offended by that'; Well so fucking what?"
