You completely misunderstood. Have you ever heard of or come across sarcasm before? Try to read it again.

Speedhump

They just love the sight of their own words in print, the same non-statements, over and over and over, accusing each other of not answering each other. What a load of nonsensical claptrap.

Can I point out that if you have these flu symptoms it is far more likely that you have normal flu than swine flu. So don't panic, but do consult your doctor without delay. Your doctor should know or ask you what other conditons you sufffer from (asthma, heart, kidney, blood problems, etc) which can...

Prague has some beautiful architecture if you ignore the disgusting grey slabs the Russians built when they invaded and occupied it. Unfortunately the Russians also let large parts of Prague's ancient buildings fall into terrible disrepair, much of it is slowly under renovation as money allows. Prag...

The only thing wrong with this picture is that the children were very young, now you have bothered to post a link to a (slanted) blog I see it. I had assumed they were at least older teenage students. However this act was clearly is a response to the continual anti-American public hate acts in the M...

So how did shafique understand? Are you a native English speaker?

Stop trashing this thread; either contribute sensibly or get out. You are not a moderator here.

Speedhump

Whether he agreed with me or not he was intelligent enough to understand me linguistically. He can tell you himself if he can be bothered. Now stop trashing.

Shafique I don't intend to let Chocoholic ruin the thread with a fight. Just be glad she is not moderator of the Politics forum.... I agree that cultural norms are what set the level of freedom of expression. I think we have to accept that these norms change constantly. The US is in a state of high ...

We're OK in general I think.

On Chap.12 now and enjoying your direct and fresh style. An easy read. The male characters are a bit cardboad cutout; either for eye candy or vilification purposes only, but no matter, the woman's actions and motives are fun to read.

Thanks.

There is a cure; the treament for bird flu, Tamiflu, which is well stocked in the UAE, and also other flu treatments seem effective. What there isn't yet is an available vaccine, is will be available very soon, a matter of months (or even less I think), but as the Western world has already pre-order...

I think conspiracy theories are all cooked up (that's a joke...get it?). Seriously, I can't believe any of these crackpot rumours, for example the story that AIDS was a US invention to kill Africans, or Muslims, or whatever. Same old, same old, every time. People just love to disbelieve, always look...

We are in agreement on most points, except that when you look at the OP's previous record he is strongly anti Bush, Israel, Pakistanis, anti a lot of things actually. I don't see humour in his posts except if used to stress his rather bitter points; rather I see a cynical sarcasm (in which vein I ap...

OK, I also believe that pharmaceutical companies seem to know no limits when it comes to making money out of misery. They try to supress alternative vaccines which are cheaper than their own, but which could help to eradicate some major Third World health problems. But I still don't think they could...

Demonisation, certainly true on both sides of the fence. I watched a TV program today (prerecorded); there are currently 20 US basketball players currently playing for Iranian teams, the American guy interviewed said he felt safe and comfortable in Iran, and Iranians were very freindly and open to h...

To RedKite, Big Tobacco is bad,
they kill folk, and that makes him mad.
He lost some good friends
who met painful ends.
Such demises are really so sad.

I don't tell Michael Jackson jokes because they are all puns on his song titles. And that's bad.

I don't necessarily agree!

Hi all I love beading and crafts, and have had so much trouble finding reasonable priced beads in Dubai, or stores that were accessible (not running around in circles in Deira etc). So after many long torturous journeys around town, I am about to open an online bead store through souq - so beads ca...

That was why I said I don't necessarily agree......

Yes but he wants to buy in Dubai? The petrol alone will cost him 10 times the cost of the pipe.

I'm either pregnant or I ate way too much Burger King last month. Does that count? ;) Phantom pregnancy is a well known condition, although not common in women now that women in general have a better knowledge of the working of their bodies. The only people that suffer it now I think are men or wome...

Nobody with the remotest medical, or even general knowledge should ever believe they could be carrying 12 babies, she was plainly delusional!
