I answered your question, which I copied verbatim from your OP. I then asked a question of my own. So what is your issue?
Q: Do I chance making it to the "vault" for a replacement, with my pants around my ankles in the hope that someone doesn't appear (my partners daughter-in-law is here visiting from afar) finding me in an uncompromising situation?

A. Physical assertiveness moves through a spectrum of emotional phases and confrontational personal space stances before finally evolving into full blown physical aggression.
Q. At what point does online social assertiveness become passive aggression?

You're better than an awkward and evasive pusillanimous response.

drewnogals's answer ~ also on the 14th February ~ was: "Because they need to be loved."

Q. Why do some people get their kicks out of criticizing other people in public?
A: Not sure. But maybe you yourself should reflect upon this question.
Q: Why is 'the west' mainly only interested in peculiar and oddball news stories from Japan, a major nation with one of the world's biggest economies.

Q. Would Stephen Fry make a good Prime Minister?
Q: Would the establishment of a functioning government in Somalia amount to a curtailing of Somalians' liberty?

Originally posted by Great Big SteesPerhaps it would better for Grampy Bobby if he pondered how to respond before falsely accusing people of irresponsibly misquoting him when no such thing happened. Grampy Bobby is very fond of criticising other posters for what he sees as their forum misdemeanours, going so far as to post "Russ'" terms and conditions at people. Sometimes he does this over and over again in the same thread. In this thread he has also reprimanded people for not following what he sees as his rules and also incorrectly admonished me for allegedly misquoting him, when I had done no such thing. Then, rather than post a brief apology for his error, he just abandons the thread in the hope that his behaviour will go unnoticed. It this and other behaviour like it, that have given Grampy Bobby the reputation of being a pompous overweening forum Lord and is why he receives many of the 'thumbs-down' that he complains so bitterly about and calls people cowards for given them to him.
A: He may be pondering how to respond.
Originally posted by FMFStephen Fry is quite open about his sexuality. Think he might even have had a civil partnership.

Q: Why does a Lieutenant General outrank a Major General but a Major outranks a Lieutenant?
