I need your honest opinion!

Dlowan- Are the schools in Australia so retrograde that you still use outworn and discredited Freudian terminology? By this time you should know that Freudian "projection" theories are hopelessly outdated.

If you are really British, Lord Elpus, you should know where this one is found:

"There was me, that is Alex, and my three droogs, that is Pete, Georgie and Dim, Dim being really dim , and we sat in the Korova Milkbar making up our rassoodocks what to do with the evening, a flip dark chill winter bastard, though dry."

Bernard old boy, why the bloody hell have you started asking all these silly questions?

If you have an inbuilt desire to test people's general knowledge, why not start a thread in the trivia and word games section.


By the way, having lived in Radlett for most of my early years, I not only know the "ins and outs" of "A Clockwork Orange", I also watched quite a bit of it being filmed.

I have an earlier thread somewhere that went into this in some depth, if you'd like me to find it for you....

Good for you. Lezzles! I am glad to see Australia has people who read! I am very much afraid that Lord Elpus concentrates his literary scrutiny to coprophiliac activities. If you read his posts, you will find he appears to be fascinated with that function!

Do we have to call in Francis to answer the riddle about Cyrano de Bergerac?

There was no riddle, Francis. Some of the left wing morons on this thread never read Rostand's marvelous play!

I referenced Cyrano's lines in order to respond to a poster who thought that brevity was witty. As you may recall, Francis, Cyrano absolutely devastated him with his comment--

"Such, my dear sir, is what you might have said, Had you of wit or letters the least jot: But, O most lamentable man!--of wit, You never had an atom, and of letters You have three letters only!--they spell Ass!"

My advice to you, Lord Ellpus, is never to read any posts which cause you to have such dreams. Scroll past them.

As Hamlet says:

"For in that sleep, what dreams may come?" Indeed!!

Good idea Bernard.

I won't read through your posts after all, for fear of having more Dentist's nightmares.

But I now have a dilemma. I am out of cocoa, I'm not going to be reading your posts....how the devil am I going to get to sleep?

Can you suggest anything that is as equally tedious and boring that I can flick through?

His previous personas' posts?


I can think of Italgato and massagatto off the top of my head...but there have been so many....

Italgato....in 2003, wrote...

"I will give Dlowan and Dyslexia another opportunity to show their integrity and debating ability or to leave the field defeated. In case they are unable to handle complex arguments and so that they may show just how they have completely rebutted my arguments......."blah blah blah...

I just looked at three posts and yes, I think you're right.

Exactly the same pompous style. Well spotted.
