Sorry Ipanema I disagree. This pretty much started with Milan attacking Chilli, a while back. And she also "attacked" anyone who commented on her posts. Even to the extent of saying I was stalking her....

Statements like this also do not do a lot. If you have a problem with a person or persons, name them otherwise you tar all with the same brush....maybe I mixed my metaphors
Mimi I apologise I was away for nearly three weeks and may have missed some posts from then. I tried to catch up but admit I may have missed some.
Jimbo, sorry do not agree, people who do not think they are a superior bunch of intellectuals know who they are and the ones who think they are superior do. I am not interested in pointing the finger at anyone in particular this was my opinion on reading the post

yes, nasty intellectuals should be ashamed of themselves! for being intellectuals that is.. how dare they! are we getting back to the george w. syndrome (2000 gore/bush) where people were convinced that an idiot having no intellect makes them more likable? :|
and btw, i don't think any sane person sits back and thinks, "geez i'm an intellectual" and i also don't think schooling is a correlating factor as to whether or not one is an intellectual.. i think it's more of a mindset:

nowhere in the definition of intellectual is there a reference to the level of one's formal education and rightfully so.. georgie boy went to yale, was he an intellectual?

Ipanema said:
i only understand the underlined part of this question and i'll answer it as best i can..
simply put, no they can't - but they can and should be aware that the strong voicing of their opinions in a public forum may draw scrutiny when it's provocative.. if it was written and is defended in ignorance, then they deserve the scrutiny they solicited by posting it in the first place, and part of that scrutiny may or may not involve one suggesting that individual lacks intellect..

So there I was, driving high and low around the backstreets of Denpasar looking for the cheapest booze for an upcoming party....
Looked in here for the first time out of curiosity generated by our resident juvenile's gloating about the demise of Milan. As he had already managed to get 3 or 4 of his posts deleted by the admin, presumably for offensiveness, in a members thread, this was a must read.
Oh boy! He has done himself proud. This whole thing comes off as a senior class president staging a late 18th century inspired drama with the totally dumb cognizance of his teachers - who form the cast. Take a look and identify Marie Antoinette, Madame Lafarge and Marat. You should be mortified for being led into this.
Good work Cs, you show great promise.

Hope you all understand why I locked the thread.
