well.. the bit you've highlighted I was actually feeling sorry for the kids on estates who get caught up in being told where their lives are and aren't safe who aren't the 'scum' you talked about earlier. Or are you saying everyone on an estate is thieving violent scum? I'm fairly sure you're not, and it must be an unimaginably oppressive existence at times for those who don't buy into it. there's nothing 'goody-goody' in that, nor am I trying to justify theft and violence.
Leyton/Leytonstone.. yep, I flipped a coin as I couldn't remember and could've sworn there was talk of Leyton before. Anyway, wrong one.
I'd be interested to talk about it over a beer. But you made something personal that was such a mild remark and this 20% bit was enough for you to be insulting.. take it in the spirit it was meant and not some massive cue to let me know how much of a 'cunt' you think I am, which I read in comments like 'how shall I call you' and 'white knight'..this personalisation of shit to gain points pisses me right the fuck off on this forum and hard though some people seem to find it to believe, I've already a fairly good idea of who thinks I'm a cunt and who doesn't and I'm not losing sleep over it, maybe the feeling's mutual. But I'm not one of the people on here who swans around being a deliberate shit to people, nor a sneaky bastard, so there's nothing 'random' about my posts. you'll find you responded to a very mild, one-line comment. okay, after that maybe I came on a bit strong but i'm tired of shit being recontextualised to make it personal on the few occasions I challenge people on here who should know better. There's an untold amount of stuff I ignore and never comment on that others have a field day with and go unchecked. I just get tired of rudeness and call out some of the people who maybe consider themselves beyond reproach on here and they don't like it. but they can't just respond in kind, they have to make low blows like making out i think i'm on a mission. bullshit, I just find some of the ballswinging on here laughable. all egos. deeply unappealing.
