Personally I think str is going to fit in perfectly.

He's managed to raise some objectionable points without getting barred.

He's going to come to drinks.

When James is banned again in three months (or is it two now?) I recon str will be his natural successor.

It's all about the pyrrhineum.

So if someone told you to go jump off the end of a pyrr, would you do it?

I did and I survived. so technically, I won.

Pyralgin... Whatever happened to metamizole? It used to be a painkiller number one when I was a kid. And a main cause of stomach ulcers.

Semiotics isn't the only vehicle for culture - also creativity and common behaviours, so you're wrong here.

BSL is a language and would come under linguistics. It has nothing to do with semiotics.

My point was that the deaf community have much more of a shared culture than your example group

Amputation fetishists by definition, only share interest in a fetish, not necessarily a whole culture, nor do they have to be disabled.

Actually yeah.

I always presume that people stop short of becoming jerks themselves... that people are in essence decent, respectful and honourable.

You can see why I have trouble with life.

I see your point and agree with what you're saying. I was merely playing devils advocate by insinuating something that I thought was rather obvious.

Some people come here to liven up their day and stir shit. If it's not there they'll create it. No prises for guessing their names.

...pyrrhic.

All talk and no action.

Umberto Eco proposes that every cultural phenomenon can be studied as communication

I studied semiotics of culture for five bloody years as a part of film studies and its grammar.

Semiotics differs from linguistics in that it generalizes the definition of a sign to encompass signs in any medium or sensory modality. Thus it broadens the range of sign systems and sign relations, and extends the definition of language in what amounts to its widest analogical or metaphorical sense

I analysed it thoroughly and I think you completely missed the joke.

Srsly. Just call each other a cunt, and we can all move on.

Semiotics is the best you can hope for when you reach a certain age.

is this a dig at Oliver Schick?

not the accusation of shit-stirring, the way you spelled prizes.

Dignitas is the best you can hope for when you reach a certain age.

I don't like your semantics and your face... and can't rep you apparently.

You are.

This whole forum is just a bunch of pyrrhics.

Me included.

Priapism - complication of sickle cell disease, having an erection that doesn't subside after ~4 hours
