    So 'silly VR', some people refer to their work or initiative using the possesive pronoun even though they are not in possession of said work... Example: composers, engineers (my bridge) politicians (my bridge),...
    "Silly Pondy", goad was claiming the thread as his own, say the grave digger is welcome in "MY THREADS" any time, using the upper case letter to emphasize. Always nice to see your bias come out though Pondy!!! πŸ˜‰ Shows who's butt your kissing!

    The thread belongs to no one, even if you are the OP, it isn't your thread you may have started it but you don't own it so goes the possosive part!!! πŸ˜›

    'You are always welcome in my threads sir.' = 'You are always welcome in the threads I have created.' = 'Your contributions are always welcome in the threads I have created.' = 'Threads I have created are enhanced by your contributions.' etc etc.

    Apparently, in your world, if I say 'I love my country' you believe I am claiming ownership of the UK.

    As always, your propensity to take everything literally has let you down badly.

    No, actually you were trying to change the context of what I was saying to suit yourself.

    In the future I will do my best to get into any thread you start in public forums, as you are the original poster not the owner of said thread. πŸ™‚
