There could be no more more gormless a requiem for the art of

*yawn*

If that's your idea of conversation, then good riddance to said "art".

Not conversation but a jest at your gormlessness. Unsuprisingly, you
couldn't tell.

I was referring not to your response above, which was abundantly clear
in meaning, but to your earlier description and its implications. I
admit my phrasing was not the clearest.

Your phrasing was clear! Just not the snipping. Talking of which, I
understand hardressers give free haircuts to those blokes getting married,
and that newlyweds are given tours of airplane cockpits. I wonder if it'd
work with LUL?

All the best, sir, and enjoy your jaw-flapping.

I shall. Enjoy your identikit friends, their identikit views and I trust
you are no more detained by people impudently different than your good
self.

I shall, although I have no objections to such "detainment", nor to
people different than myself.

Did you not recently say that you preferred the company of those with whom
you share interests? IWSTM that you therefore prefer /not/ to have the
company of those who don't. That circle looks a good fit for a corner...

In fact, the words 'pot', 'kettle' and
'black' spring to mind upon reading the latter part of your sentence.

I am hardly detained to purposively stop at the side of the SuperInterWebWay
and shine the light of the new at the wretched creatures I find. Think of
it as my good deed for the day!
