Speculation and Opinion.....

Do you reckon TM will even rise to the bait? I'll bank on it being amusing if she does.

NT….I wonder if Jerry has heard the old saying...

Hell hath no fury like a woman scorn....

The forum can be a tricky place TT -
what Jerry Seinfiield types on his keyboard isn't necessarily what he means.
I thought this way when I came across this…

Words matter. They help us define meaning. We think with words.
We learn with words. Words are the fundamental tools we use for
communicating. If we use them well, we can cut and shape and polish
our ideas precisely and beautifully. If we use them sloppily, we put
ourselves at an intellectual disadvantage.
Words can help you think well. If you think well, you can plan
well. If you plan well, you can work well. If you work well, you can
accomplish almost anything.

Another great post AHX,Jerry can be an uncomplicated person as well as being a complicated person…..
I think it depends on the mood he is in at the time.....

Sincerely I think he at times maybe misunderstood as all of us can be,however personally I think deep within he is a good soul and expresses himself how he feels within the moment...he isn't all that bad....I don't think......

Hi AHX,
I like your last post.
I was reading a few days ago about a person who is fluent in 9 languages and can understand several others. When asked about why he spends so much time learning languages he replied that each language defines uniquely the way the world is seen by that culture. Learning new languages means learning new ways to view and define the world.
How true.

Wise words, AHX. Considering all we have on the forum is words, it makes what people say on here come across pretty bluntly a lot of the time, because you cannot gauge emotion through text, nor can you convey body language or facial expressions that you can in face to face conversations.

Happy there's been times where a couple of posters on here have attacked a poster's motivation for a post, or comment they made, and in some posts, sarcasm is used to belittle someone.
it's nothing major but it does happen.
Got to give a thumbs up to the Moderators on here for doing such a wonderful job and staying on top of things. :slight_smile🙂

Tigermama dont try to turn this into a dolls house forum. We are boys, we have a go at each other then we have a beer with each other later.This forum is an excellent tool for us to speak our minds.We might have a go at each other's posts from time to time but we arent a pack of [automatically edited] who hold grudges for years and get into big cat fights.If you dont like the behaviour of men then perhaps a Wests tigers football forum is a questionable forum for you to be on. :wink:Its like going to France and telling them all to stop speakin french. :wink:

Geez what a low post, full of sexist stereotypes, generalisations and elitism. Sometimes you just have to say it - you sir are a complete tosser! :unamused:

- language engages Linguistics - which is a re-wiring of the brain.
Good post NT

too harsh Flip
like i told TT - Jerry Seinfield's written word does not necessarily succinctly define his meaning but yours based on those words. It's a very fine line and I can't blame you to judge Jerry on his written word - but whether that translates into his literal interpretation linguistically is another story.
I think it impossible that Jerry's vocabulary usage is good enough to relay his inner most meaning. It is very difficult to translate your meanings into the exact right words. Few can do it.
In fact Flip - you're giving Jerry credit that he HAS exactly translated his emotions into the correct words. I highly doubt that.

Regardless of whom and why it was aimed, that is a good sentence.

I love ya AHX, but geez you can talk some fluff and drivel sometimes :laughing: I'm pretty sure Jerry is well able to relay his inner most meaning within his posts. In fact, he does so quite often, as do I :wink:
