Cost of living crisis. What crisis?

[BigColSutherland]

William - despite having told him you will reply to nothing, you have now replied to him twice.

I often ask myself what does Mick get out of posting on here - and I still don't know. I am increasingly asking myself the same question of you. You seem unable to ignore this berk. As far as I can tell, it's been going on for years.

Thanks BCS.

Does it irk you? That's several times you intervened on this theme.

[BigColSutherland]

It does irk me slightly as he's a pest. He comes on here and basically talks a load of nonsense.

If no one replied to him, then he would inevitably go away. It appeared this thread was dying a death, until he teased you just enough to elicit another response - saying you wouldn't respond.

[BillyStubbsTears]

Then don't read his threads. That is dead easy.

[BigColSutherland]

That would mean almost all of the Off Topic section was off limits.

[BillyStubbsTears]

Then scroll down past his contributions. And mine I guess.

Mountains and molehills pal.

Or you could just stop indulging yourself in these perverse psychological exercises?

You've suggested Mick has a personality disorder/mental health issue. And yet you continue to "spar" with him. What could your motivation possibly be? To me, it borders on unethical.

Rather like your selective observations of BST Colin

In BST's defence I can confirm I am not mentally unstable. I just happen to think you are all out to get me.

It should be obvious why BST spars with me. He knows I am the greatest intellect he has ever gone up against and he sees me as a real challenge. I too admire BST's intellect and regard him as a bit of a challenge. He also gets to spout his leftie drivel which would be difficult if he didn't have a right winger to bounce off.

I think you'll find many readers of the forum enjoy our sparring. They also learn a lot (especially off me). Without the two of us knocking ten bells out of each other this forum would be a very dull place.

Filo - I have no idea what that means. It reads as if you are suggesting William also has a mental illness, and I should know better. I suspect that is not what you mean though, as you have now leapt to his defence in two different threads.

Colin who exactly am I defending him from?
