No wound intended. I was suggesting that on an open forum you could be free to take that particular position if you wished to.

I'm going to have to get out of here. Offending people without meaning to.

This whole thread erupted because I got sick fed up of people accusing those in low-paid jobs, like in supermarkets, of being stupid and ugly and suggested a little less generalising might be called for.

I know I've been guilty of generalisations on many occasions, but I do try to avoid them.

Thanks, Warren, but sensible I am not.

I wasn't offended. I was being [apparently very poorly] flippant.
As to position, I'd prefer the Constipated Lugworm [no. 48, I think it is]
or the Evolving Theosphere [ no. 2?].

I can't take the chance of flippancy, JJ.

"No generalisation is true; not even this one".

I worked for Sainsburys and am feted* for my intelligence and rugged
good looks.



*i.e. I appear at WI dos where I am pelted with tomatoes.

Oh, I get the humour. Don't always make myself clear when attempting it, though.

No sign of Magoo---was he arrested in South Shields for flashing?
