To Pete Re: Re: Anti-depressants!

[Guest guest]

kayleighs, thanks for responding, I was going to, but then hesitated,

but I agree with your sentiment, so...

....I'd like to register my vote for the end of this debate. But I

thought I would ask Pete to be the one to stop, not because he had the

worst part in it or started it, but because he comes off as the type of

person who is thoughtful enough to just end it.

Pete,

One of the reasons I thought to stay out of it was that I thought you

might be getting some amusement out of it, and if that was the case, it

would be pretty difficult to dissuade you...

Badly misquoted classic Python:

" No! I came here for an argument! "

" No you didn't. "

" Yes, I did. "

" Didn't. "

" Did. "

" Didn't. "

" Look, just contradicting everything I say isn't arguing. "

" Yes, it is. "

The one I like is the one where a guy alternated between being abusive

and being conciliatory on each utterance. Hilarious, and a bit like

being married.
