@earl-of-trumps saidWell, you've been caught in an entirely unnecessary white lie in public, and you've blurted back grumpily, so my answer'd be "you"".
who gives a crap?
@ghost-of-a-duke saidThat this is how you choose to come to his defence is noted.
It hardly qualifies as a lie when everybody and their dog knows he was yanking your chain.
@fmf saidNo defence necessary. Many of the regular posters here belong to the same club and are well aware of Petty's origin. This rendered it blatantly obvious that the Earl was being (understandably) flippant in his reply, due to the person he was responding to.

@ghost-of-a-duke saidHa ha. That you have said this is duly noted. Are you still running pass interference for PettyTalk over his comments about my dead uncle and also about my sex life?

@ghost-of-a-duke saidThanks for the advice.
Your recent bizarre posting is likewise noted.
Seriously, take a break. Go for a walk or something.
You are missing the dynamic here completely.
@ghost-of-a-duke saidNo. I haven't posted drunk once. The problem is that you are running away from questions that go to the very core of your peculiar kind of self-abasing hypocrisy. That's the dynamic you are getting wrong. There is nothing amiss with my posting.
YOU recently posted you had been drunk 8 out of the last 10 days (or some such thing). Is that the dynamic you think I am missing?
@FMF
Let's consider the evidence. First you randomly target Torunn with your passive aggression about the meaning of 'dry drunk.' You then imply I am somehow racist when I posted jokingly about Bradford (due to 32% apparently being South Asian - As though that was something I would know). - Etc etc...
@ghost-of-a-duke saidI disagreed with her. And I was plainspoken and forthright with her, not "passive aggressive".

@ghost-of-a-duke saidBradford is a city that is ripe for racist riffs and quips. But, as I said, you probably chose it unwittingly.
