    No. If you had told me you deleted my posts rather than me thinking I did not hit the post button then that would have helped. :rolleyes: What is wrong with saying those words? I have seen it used all over after hours. If you have something against me then tell me!

    I'm pretty sure it has been banned.

    I suppose you can just say you are giving it up for lent too, so you don't notice not getting any...

    Well I was going to say that I couldn't give it up as I don't get any but changed my mind....:( I like your way of thinking btw :)

    I don't see any sig in his post where he said "isn't it obvious". Nevertheless he should have said he deleted my posts instead of making me think I was going crazy! lol@him.

    Anyway we are going off topic so what are you giving up?


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 36,634 ✭✭✭✭Ruu_Old


    Teacakes, my only vice! :(

    Cigs, and possibly coffee.

    Giving up sweet things (as was the case when a kid) isn't much of a challenege, as i rarely indulge anyways!
