Stop behaving like a troll, and we'll stop treating you like a troll.
Seriously. I could name two currently-contributing members who were dreadful trolls, in past lives. Now they just enjoy the Lounge (despite still pulling the googling in an effort to *win!* thing, now and then).
Stop the sht1, and people will stop disliking you.

Good advice Mark, you should listen to it.

You only get sht1 from me when you try to turn a discussion into a google "I Gotta Win!" fight. That ain't what people go to a Lounge for.
Especially when you google up totally inaccurate cr@p like Greek Frappe being French, and Italian (Gelato) Frappe being American; and talk about "stab mixers", which we ain't got in England (and which is probably a single word in German, but I ain't gonna google to check, because this is a discussion, not a google "I Gotta Win!" fight).
Don't expect people to be waste time on pleasantries with you when you pull that kind of google bullfactory.
Reasonable behaviour receives reasonable responses.

Its not about winning Mark, its about putting you right after you turned a discussion into an argument by acting like a jerk, as you usually do. Take your own advice.

Putting me right?
All I did was mention frappe, and you replied with this:
"Café Frappe sounds American and I have never seen these in the UK or France (or Luxembourg or Belgium for that matter"
So I (having drunk the damned things all over Europe) told you what a frappe is, and what a cafe frappe is, after which you googled (very badly, getting very incorrect results that claimed that frappe is an American invention) and started up with the "Oh, I've lived in France for years, so I know better than you what a frappe is!" bollocks.
If you can't talk to people without googling, try not talking at all -- and also try saying "Oh, I never knew that" instead of googling in an effort to get one up on the person you're talking to.
If you can't behave, why don't you just stay in the Soapbox and pound on about GW?

Yes, WITHOUT THE ACCENT!
Café frappé (WITH THE ACCENT) is French.

Talking about the 'frappe machine' you said YOU had. frappe machine - Google Search[^]
Which I HAVENT seen.
And no, you didn't tell me what a Café Frappé is, you linked to a Greek imitation created in the 50s, an imitation of the original French (and most probably Italian) drink which predates the Greek version by at least a century.
And no, you didn't tell me what a Caffé frappé is because I have drunk them often enough since I live in the South of France.
You really need to learn to understand what people write and not what you think they, or want to, write. Most likely you do this in order to create an argument just as you have done here. Take you own advice eh, and do yourself a favour.

A troll is someone who looks for arguments and confrontation. That will be you then Mark.
|
|

|

A troll is someone who keeps on and on and on trying to prove that they're right, even thought they've proven themselves wrong.
Me, I just don't run away from a fight.
Until it gets too boring to bother with, of course. Can't you google some new "evidence" to "prove" that you knew what frappes are?

Je sais bien 'frappé', j'en ai bu souvent. Mais, toi t'es un troll. C'est evident.

He gets special allowance because he is a fellow countryman of Maunders and possibly a personal friend. Maunder does on occasion have to remind him to control his language, but as in all things, the rules are not applied evenly.

We've had a beer twice and a coffee once. Not quite personal friends.

Spot on the money. Life's not always fair, people don't have to like it but that is what happens everywhere.

Mark, I have some news for you: some male Homo Saps, changing physically, hormonally, mentally, in the move into older age (the process, the outcome, of course, modulated by genetic endowment, experience, health, social/cultural reality) ...
... in some cases achieve almost full migration of the fifty-percent or more of his mind that was, in adolescence, located in the crotch area, from down there upo into that crinkled jelly-jar held in the skull. The change in patterns of perception and interior mentation will vary from individual to individual, but, in general, there is some adjustment of the bandwidth devoted to more corporeal forms of sexuality.
Whether or not you can look forward to this, or will look forward to it, or how you may react to this change if it occurs ... I cannot say without asking you for a small donation to cover my expenses in summoning Cthulhu.
cheers, Bill

From Internet Book of Shadows: Real Old Time Religion, That[^]:
We will worship mighty Cthulhu
H. P. Lovecraft's big old hoodoo
(1930's fiction voodoo....)
But that's good enough for me!
Let us sing to Lord Cthuhlu
Don't let Lovecraft try to fool you
Or the Elder Gods WILL rule you
And that's good enough for me!
Of the Old Ones, none is vaster
Even Cthulhu's not his master
I refer to the unspeakable *
and that's good enough for me!
And for those who follow Cthulhu
We have really got a lulu:
Drop a bomb on Honolulu!
'Cause that's good enough for you!
We will worship Great Cthulhu,
We will worship Great Cthulhu,
And we'll feed him Mr. Sulu
'Cause that's good enough for me!
We will sacrifice to Yuggoth
We will sacrifice to Yuggoth
Burn a candle for Yog-Soggoth
And the Goat With a Thousand Young
Well it's good enough for *
He's a mighty kinky master
When you pray he goes much faster
And that's good enough for me!
Let's go worship Great Cthulhu,
And run naked like a Zulu,
You and me and Mr. Sulu,
And that's good enough for me!
* - well, do YOU want to say it?
(Sung to the tune of "Give Me That Old-Time Religion")
If you have an important point to make, don't try to be subtle or clever. Use a pile driver. Hit the point once. Then come back and hit it again. Then hit it a third time - a tremendous whack.

Things are different, today
I hear every fogey say
Old blokes need something to help things not calm down
But the thing for you here, Bill
Is a little bluish pill
So go rushing helter-skelter
For the Woodruff's little helper
It'll help you on your way
To get your oats in one more day

I have got to apologise for the Flying Spaghetti Monster posting, I thought I was posting an amusing bit of news and did not consider the religious angle relevant. Actually I did not consider the religious angle at all!
And you are correct it should have been posted in the SB.

Bullshit. It was and still is a fine post. Some people taking the piss and enjoying life.
I didn't even click through as I basically knew what it was about. I did click through the responses as there is generally some good and funny responses to read.
Unfortunately the god botherers turned up, spoilt it for all and as always I couldn't walk away from stupid.
Not sorry and it was Sunday morning so sober as I took the daughter to soccer.
