i-Ram

Every bloody year in October I come on here waiting to be wished happy Birthday. But no, just the same old posters every year, being chummy and overfamiliar, with their mutual back slapping. It’s not even as if they contribute anything significant, well certainly very little in comparison to me. Not even a token mention today that I have reached 60.  Don’t get coming on here now passing on your faux congratulations. It won’t wash. You are all dead to me.
 

I knew @iRam reminded me of someone!
 
 
 
 
 

 
Tagged the wrong one, he's that overlooked.

60???
This forum doesn't like a fibber.

@David forgot mine this year the barsteward.

I'm sorry i-Ram. 
Here you go

I think it shows quite a good lack of planning.

Your lack of planning is abysmal.

Yes it is and I have no idea why we even mention him or interact with him at all. He loves it and adds to his misguided sense of self- importance. I feel I'm talking to my kids about "that kid" at school - we should all just ignore him totally

I've been feeling a bit low these last few days so I decided to set myself a project to decorate our kitchen. Today I painted the kitchen ceiling and I'm already feeling more positive. Not exactly a special day but I hope that it is a positive move towards future motivation! 
I look after my mum 4 days a week and after teaching for 31 years and then working in a garden centre tending plants for 10 years I sometimes feel a bit 'adrift'. I still need to feel that I am a 'cog in the machine' and so today was a good day.

I am sick of people sat on massive horses, twisting words, over-dramatising, purposefully missing the point, trying to compare a gay storyline in a made up comic to taking the knee, go on about inclusivity whilst showing none of that to differing views, exaggerating posts and making tenuous efforts at proving someone is bordering on hate speech. 
Have a ducking word with yourselves. 
And now it's going to get turned into a thread on free speech because they can't address the points being made. Every argument comes back to Hitler, or Farage in the case of this forum. 
And the same people think they are inclusive. I will throw a label in. It's called bullying. Snide remarks about flouncing, not having a life, accusing a poster of verging on hate speech etc, but the same posters will be first to be inclusive of an online bullying campaign, i'm sure.
Drop the flouncey, over-dramatic, exaggerations. Don't like the point being made? Move on. When you're belittling, mocking and assuming and suggesting some pretty distasteful stuff, it's not a debate.
I'm interested to read the views. I'm not interested in all the above. 

Times readers are seemingly snobs. 

I like the comment under the article which says: Can I have a refund on my subscription? I seem to have wandered into another newspaper.

Hope you two buck up soon ?

Give it a couple more years and it will be Superthey.
Not that I properly understand all this non-binary stuff. I don’t know my ******** from my elbow.

I heard they are very rich in Foreve. Most of their residents are extremely wealthy, and have a lot of time on their hands.

Funny, but that has always been my policy when deciding whether to stay with a girlfriend or not.

If I wanted an argument I’d talk to my wife ??‍♂️
