We have a ski team? Cool!

:)

Makes me curios, when will Anja compete against the men?

First there was Annika Sörenstam against the male golfers (not that golf is a
sport) and in August Susanne Ljungskog will compete against the males in
cycling.

I was subtly trying to point out to the rest of the world that more people need to
be realistic and calm down.

Yeah, right. Now who's unrealistic?

Buy picking 3 people who can be seen as prominent on
Lugnet, and referring to them as the "nutz" I was being VERY sarcastic.  those
people are not nutz (well maybe Lar is) BUT by adding them in with the real
screw-balls I can almost safely defer any backlash i ~MIGHT~ get by pointing out
that i listed three non nutz-oids.

Hey! Wait a sec. Thus you gave me an compliment? Sort of.

This can only mean one thing; the real Chris™ has been abducted by aliens and is
now replaced with a nut that runs along toy-aisles screaming: "Don't by this,
the color gray has changed!"

I think this is where I erred, to grasp the compliment-from-Chris thingy.

:)

and thus I can say to said people, NO I was not
talking about you.  but those whose names were included as nutz, should clearly
understand that they are not the nuts. (except Lar)

Oooh, sort of like a safety net. Or an excellent example of pusillanimity.

see, even in my LAST example i did it again. by point out Lar as a nut, I can safely
(once again) get out of it cause i'm pretty sure Lar knows I'm full of it. and that
he knows he is not a nut.

If I were Lar, I'd realize he IS a nut. But I'd also be proud about it 'cause
I'd be a nut in a cool
not-running-in-toy-isles-telling-people-not-to-buy-kind-o-way.

ah.

subtle.

English is such a messed up language.

It's not that bad, actually. It's the finer distinctions I have problems with.

then you have the freaks (like me ) who deliberately butcher it and expect the rest
of the world to understated.

So your basically saying you deliberately write like you do to make people
understate your wisdom?

Can I write that Chris has wisdom (in any respect) w/o tripping any hidden rtlT
alarms?

:)

*wades back to more shallow water*

some day when you come to an RTL event you will understand.

I will.

i also tend to hit the send key without reading what i write.

Yeah, just take this quote for an example:
"...all I can say is WOW!!!.  (rtlT is a nice safe harbour away from the nut'z of
the
rest of lugnet.  (like tobbe, Lar++ and that dan boger guy)"

I mean, we all know those threeingled people visit rtlT regulary so how can it
be a safe harbour away from them? There's a big ugly hole in your safety net
Chris, good for you no-one has tried getting you fall yet[1]. Not that it
matters now when you have disassemled it.

1. Which is nothing short of amazing, I had expected this thread to be chaos by
now.

Kinda disapointing, I had my hopes they'd be (more) butchered too :)
