Bugged Posted January 13, 2009 Share Posted January 13, 2009 Reading the directions. The last resort of the unimaginative... Don't you mean the first resort of the unimaginative? Or, the last resort of the imaginative. Or, I'm disappointed, although not surprised, by your lack of imagination...? Something along those lines, yes?

Stuka Posted January 13, 2009 Share Posted January 13, 2009 Btw, Emrys, if you're going to pretend to be a engine grog, Get your numbers right. The A model is the one with the R-1300, which had a single row of cylinders and only put out 800hp. Kewl! Engine nerds are gonna start slapping each other! Will there be tears and cries of "no Fair!" and "he pulled my hair!"? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Joe Shaw Posted January 13, 2009 Share Posted January 13, 2009 Kewl! Engine nerds are gonna start slapping each other! Will there be tears and cries of "no Fair!" and "he pulled my hair!"?Oh probably not ... Michael will likely sniff in disdain, toss his head and cut Lars dead ... Lars, being Lars, will be oblivious and will continue to prattle on about cylinders and connecting shafts. Pretty boring actually but with Michael and Lars can you really expect anything better?

Michael Asks the guy who lives in a rich fantasy world where people praise him for his pedantry and heap accolades upon him for his coma inducing monologues.

Joe Did you hear the one about changing the dead battery at -19F? Good thing I have a garage, as the wind chill is -34F. Wee bit parky out today. Still, I hate it when the socket wrenches stick to your fingers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

stikkypixie Posted January 13, 2009 Share Posted January 13, 2009 My Gawd but you're a dense one aren't you. There was no offense given so no challenge can result! Read the Code Duello lad, it explains all. Joe Golly, offend you? I wouldn't know where to start, there is so much to choose from. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Joe Shaw Posted January 13, 2009 Share Posted January 13, 2009 Golly, offend you? I wouldn't know where to start, there is so much to choose from.Just make sure you understand the consequences. For example Rule 6 is quite clear ... If A gives B the lie and B retorts by a blow (being the two greatest offences), no reconciliation can take place till after two discharges each or a severe hit, after which B may beg A's pardon for the blow, and then A may explain simply for the lie, because a blow is never allowable, and the offence of the lie, therefore, merges in it. (See preceding rule.) Giving me the lie OR striking me can have critical results as you can see, however some lesser offense may allow additional options.
