With Valentines day just around the corner, the question has to be.. - Page 5

oooook, why is everyone missing this today?! this is how this conversation has gone for me:

me: I don't like roses, I think they're a bit of a clichÃ©
kitten: if someone likes roses, then it's ok
me: (paraphrased) well, surely that's obvious (that it's ok to buy someone roses if they like them, regardless of whether it's a clichÃ© or not)
everyone else: rararar, how dare you be so rude?!

please let me get this straight before anyone misconstrues this any futher.

All I was saying was that surely it's obvious that it's cool to buy roses if people like them, regardless of justification.

I was going to apologise, but I didn't mean anything by that comment, so I don't think I should have to. Kitten, I only said that the way I did because I thought that you would get what I was on about. I didn't mean to offend you, even though I appear to have. It was a sarcastic, throwaway comment. I thought I'd known you guys long enough to be able to make those kinds of comments in good humour, but I was obviously wrong. I shall go back to lurking, as I obviously cause far too much trouble when I actually post here.

OK, can we ALL drop the attitude please, even if you think it's not you?

And that includes you below me too (whomever it may be), got it?

edit/ Jasper, no need to bugger off and lurk

Your post above seems to have cleared it up.

Dude, cool it. What you said was offensive, not funny, no matter how you meant it to come across. Given a few of us feel the same way, too, and I'm in a laughing mood today, its obvious the delivery must have got it across wrong. I'd suggest you back away now before you offend even more people.

Aww common people, lets spread some love!

I LOVE YOU GUYS!

*spreads some love*

I've been thinking and I have decided as opposed to some Â£500 flowers this gorgeous menu would woo a million times more:

Starters:
BIG JUICY Prawns, in a light lime and coriander dressing

Mains:
Duck pancake rolls with hoisin sauce (you could try and do the whole "lady and the tramp" spaghetti scene with them! Though saying that I might munch off the reciprocating persons face due to my sheer love of Duck pancake rolls!) and some other yurmy type starters like chicken skewers and ribs and things. NOM.

Dessert:
Brownies. And Ben and Jerrys icecream on top. The cookie dough one! NOM!

*I hasn't had the lunch yet... can you guess

*

I tell you what may be interesting... to see malcs reaction if I start typing out that famous film Brad Pitt stars in as a gypsy.... what's it called again? I can't quite remember? Any one? I'm sure it's something like Hatch? Batch? Was it Match? It was something like that...

OH NO WAIT A MINUTE! I KNOW WHAT IT IS!

SNATCH!

*sits and waits with popcorn*

Trouble is Garp, it only takes one person to say it's a negative comment and then that is ingrained into people as they read the thread. Personally, if you read it back, it can easily be seen as a sarcastic and jokey comment as well. OK, so a

would have helped a little, but it shouldn't always be necessary here.

Next time RTM the post please.
