Do you ever stop?
Here we are, 8 pages into a thread on the North South divide in the U.K. and you and your buddy
@Mike Barton have rolled in like a tag team of prolapsed rectums, dribbling shite everywhere you go.
Every bloody thread, in you come posting in a style that demands the reader bow down to your superior knowledge on, well, everything really. It follows a pattern: You start with a reasonable enough counter argument but as time goes by, it descends into “as a mega businessman who has been involved in every project from the first heart transplant to putting a man on Mars, this is how it is”.
When challenged you then descend into snide remarks. You did it in the BA redundancies thread, you did it in the Lewis Hamilton thread (add tax consultant to your burgeoning CV) and now your doing it here. Just a sample but you get the point. Or probably not.
So why the outburst? Well, in the above post you started chucking racist accusations. You start by asserting that because someone
in their experience has felt that other nationalities aren’t able to produce work to as high a standard in the U.K., that’s racist. You have a different view but because yours doesn’t tally with his you try to add weight to your blustering self promotion not by debating the point but by denigrating the poster. In other words, playing the man, not the ball.
You then show stunning ignorance and closet racism of your own. This section of the conversation started when I penned a picture involving the life of a fictional character I called Fred, a U.K. based office drone. Shortly afterwards, somebody suggested that Fred’s job might soon move to India and be taken by someone he called Gupta. These two tales started with “0600, Fred / Gupta roll out of bed”. It was a furtherance of an illustration and Gupta and Fred have continued to be our characters for a few pages, adding the human dimension.
A short pause here, you of course don’t get the human dimension, people are just payroll numbers to you, get the best from them and discard them. In your pursuit of Australian talent, did you ever consider training some up or were the Asians just more cost efficient?
Anyway, back to Fred and Gupta (a few other support actors have also crept in). A simple fact is that a lot of people in India are called Gupta and a lot of people in the U.K. are called Fred. Next time you hook up with one of your mates from the sub continent, tell him you’re going to call him Fred now as Gupta is too Indian. I’m willing to bet he’d see that as racist, patronising and a very great deal more. He might even suggest to you that such an act went out in the late 40s when that bit of the map stopped being pink and Indian self determination meant they no longer had to suffer the indignity of being subjugated by such things as having anglicised names forced upon them?
Or he might kick you in the balls as a service to mankind.
You may have noticed that as a military themed website people occasionally exchange their views on others in the vernacular. Sometimes this is banter, sometimes this is an expression of their heartfelt dislike for someone. You just snipe which to me illustrates the point that you don’t get the idea behind this forum and you don’t have balls enough to just feck them off. You just run people down, make snide comments on bus drivers, racists, ignorance and make a point of telling everyone how wrong they are, all of the time. I guess a lifetime of kowtowing to HR is part of Big Business.
To summarise. You’re a bluffer. And a not very nice human being. A total cock if you will.
