DA ; Simply Vicky: Don't get pithy with me!

I wouldn't know what she was like before she met me - obviously! I don't want to keep arguing and fighting, it's not any fun for anyone. Okay? smiley - biggrin

yes I know how you do that, I did it last time, with my Mum, but without wearing a T shirt, it was more of a jumper thing really..

The only 'witty' t-shirts I have are very old by now, and I only wear them in the house these days. But I quite liked wearing them 15-20 years ago. One said 'Talk is Cheap' and the other 'Bad Attitude' (both with quite cool graphics happening) - which seemed to suit me at the time, in a humourous way.

Ah youth, eh? smiley - winkeye

Mr. Dreadful - But really I'm not actually your friend, but I am...

I only tend to wear witty/slogan t-shirts if they're ones I made myself.

Your right Max , the licence fee is not worht my compliance/silence but I suppose everyone has a price of some sort and its as good as anywhere to start the bidding. I know you dont want to buy the rights to what you want posted from my account but others have wanted that and have gone as far as attempted ID theft to get it in the past.

On a more serious note I do really wonder what wouldnt people give up to speak out on a subject. What price (in RL) does your silence regarding your disagreement with the consensus come at?

Sexist abuse from one person to another on public transport.

Relative making racist jokes.

Friends who swear in restarants when young children are present.

smiley - huh

I'd probably mouth off about all of those things and wouldn't give a flying about what people thought.

Then again, that's just one of those little things that makes me ME. smiley - angel
