I ask such dumb questions.
Of course there is.
Says he was here earlier this month.
He lives in Vancouver, Canada.
Iâve been to Vancouver, or âCouvâ as we like to call it. Itâs very rainy.
Couvâs very rainy, eh? He should feel at home, then, pretty sure heâs a Melbourne boy.
Speaking of which, I went for a walk on Wednesday, it lasted 15 mins. Didnât get swooped by birds, they had more sense than to go out in the pouring rain! Fair dinkum, I could NOT have been wetter if I jumped in the bath fully clothed! Thatâs honest, IT P1SSED DOWN!!
I thought the sun always shines in Reservoir?
Now youâre being silly.
It doesnât?
Only when he bends over

Be nice.
I was positively angelic. The clouds parted, and a beam of light descended upon you.
Youâve changed your story. You intimated that it came out of my arze.
Meaning, âHe thinks the sun shines out of his arze.â
ThusâŚbe nice. 
Youâre a sensitive cat Vinnie.

2005-2012 Vinnie was the best. This softer, more sensitive incarnation will take some getting used to.
I dunno, maybe you didnât fully understood the old Vinnie. You know, I can remember getting massively abused the very first week I was on here. It was a thread about Delta Goodrem who was battling cancer and a whole heap of mean buggers were actually almost celebrating the fact! I let em have it both barrels. It seemed like I was one out against the whole mob. Thatâs the truth, and that was all those years ago. Donât worry Digs, the old VD cheeky sense of humour and mischief is still intactâŚand I still donât mind being who I am even if the mob hates it. Youâll see 
EDIT: OK let me explain briefly. The reason I go walk about from time to time is that occasionally I get so p1ssed off when people just wanna fight and argue all the time. I thought I would try a new approach. I wanna have fun. I wanna make people smile and if possible say interesting stuff. I just canât be effed fighting all the time. Do you get my drift?

Many years ago, l travelled to India and found myself just outside Varanasi in what was reputed to be the garden where Buddha often went to contemplate and find enlightenment. In one corner of the garden stood a nonâdescript tree, about 4 m high. As l passed the tree, l saw something that caught my eye. A small lizard was climbing the trunk, at the same time a squirrel was coming down the trunk, right in line with the lizard. At about a metre apart, they both froze, staring directly at each other, but not daring to move, it was a standâoff, with the reptile having the advantage as they can remain immobile for longer. I knew that l could have solved the impasse for these 2 animals by making a sudden motion towards them, or even just hand clapping, disturbing their intent and concentration. However, l was very conscious of where l was, and wondered what the Buddha would have done if he were present at that moment. l felt certain that he would not have interfered, and would have left the two animals to resolve their own dilemma. It was a personal zen moment, in the perfect setting. After a pause of a minute or so, both animals acted, l donât know what triggered them to act, in a flash the squirrel zigged to the right, the lizard zagged to the left. The lizard climbed high into the tree and was soon lost in the foliage. The squirrel ran across the ground and straight up another tree. Possibly it was looking for another lizard.
Getting back to dilemma posed in this thread, l would not swerve one way or the other, but hit the brakes hard, to avoid hitting either of them. If there wasnât space enough to stop in time, then l still would not swerve one way or the other, but continue straight on, leaving the kitten and the lizard to get out of the way, and l would not look back to see what the result would be.
I drift in and out
I, like perhaps others, still love the club but find it difficult to believe those in positions of power and privilege within the club hold the same affection

Great to hear from you, Mero. youâre a legend! 
OMG how did I miss this?
You are a complete and utter 
If whales meat was sustainable and tasty, and whales could be humanely killed, Iâd tuck in. Iâd probably even argue that itâs the most ethical meat - a single whale carcass could feed a town. But whales are endangered, and their slaughter is invariably drawn out and cruel. They probably donât taste great either. Itâs on those grounds most people oppose whaling.
No sac, I am not a snowflake, in fact, that is so not me as to be hilarious. I just donât like your persona at all and I would be happy if you never read any of my posts or spoke to me again. As you are now, I donât want to have anything to do with you. If I was a snowflake, I would block you, but Iâve never blocked anyone, itâs not my go.
What I was trying to achieve in my post, that you found so funny, was to demonstrate, to other blitzers, how people can put up a topic, in all honesty, and be accused by people, such as yourself, of things that were utterly without foundation. I thought by saying that, I might help others who cop the same sort of stuff.
Pretty sure they understood me and Iâm glad of that.
As for you, I think some real self reflection and soul searching would help you. If youâre willing to play the game by civil rules, I certainly am too. If not, leave me out of your games.
