    “Wah semantics! How dare people insist that words mean what they should in a medium using words for mutual discussion!” Gosh they must be bastards the lot of them?

    Or if you actually know how to use the words excreting from your brain and through the keyboard you won’t run into issues. As said previously, the greatest search engine in the world is at your fingertips so why can’t you use words properly?

    Good man. You believe what you want.

    And to be honest, I may have been wrong.

    When I checked again after being asked by ohnonotgmail, I noticed that while it was the first one that popped up, it says it is from Oxford Languages, which is Lexico, which is part of the Oxford University Press, who publish the Oxford Dictionary.

    Armed with this information, I concede that the definition I gave in good faith may be a more simplistic version than the one in the Oxford Dictionary proper (I think Lexico is mainly used for bilingual Spanish speakers) I would still say it is not unreasonable to call it a definition.

    Good man for the walking back down off that hill.

    Again....my apologies the very first definition that pops up when I googled the words bigot and definition.

    Very unreasonable of me.

    You must be the only one in the world who gets... “Lexico” as your first google result.

    Indeed, Lexico is the bottom result on the page of results for me. So you went to special lengths to select it.

    Hold up there. I was being called a bigot. You don’t think the definition of the word bigot is pretty important to that accusation?

    Haha you should take a trip over the Graham Lineham thread. It'll blow your mind. Maybe the dunne was just giving his 'coceptualisation' of what a bigot is :D

    So it's ok for the Dunne to call me a bigot because someone said something in another thread?

    I'm not saying one way or the other. Just making a light hearted comment :) I do think the definition of bigot he gave is not precise enough, and find the latter ones far better.

    Crudden and a couple of crusties turned up at the dail with loud speakers trying to drown out the speeches. They were relieved of their equipment and had to be escorted away by the police.

    About 50 of the crowd then headed to gpo and chased away a group that were flying communist flags.

    your midget friend hermann looked ridiculous. like a kid on his confirmation.

    You have to be in work to qualify as "working" class, though, which is something those loopers wouldn't know the first thing about.

    Maybe, it still stands a group of work shy loopers who are from a working class area are going to still flake the tar out of a group of activists who got the green line in cause they heard Gemma oDoherty would be there.
