If you're bringing Monty Python into this, then let's use the Bruces' Rule
#4. Now this term, I don't want to catch anybody not drinking

There's also the Python "argument" skit, but that's probably already been done.

I would post up the “Ministry of Silly Walks”, but that would be too political.....

We must try hard not to offend don’t you know.

On the contrary, we must try hard to not be offended. For no one can give offense if we refuse to take offense.

Not taking offense is the best defense.

Frankly, your attitude offends me.

I beg to differ, offending a person is an assertive action, being offended is passive, therefore, all who may be offended must be allowed deference. We must be exceedingly sensitive to those who are overly sensitive or otherwise feign offense for their own gain.

I am sure that you agree with me right?

Normally, yes. But not on this thread!

Hmmm, reminds me of someone, but that would be too argumentative and the mods would not like it.

As for your interrogatory. I'm afraid I must wholeheartedly agree. Sorry.

I am hurt and offended that you would say that about me. What did I ever do to you to deserve this public thrashing?

Golldurn it I was not even remotely thinking of you, unless of course you are a politician using a nom d'plume.

Oh sure, go and offend me, and then deny it. Why would you do that? Now I will be forced to impugn your character by making slanderous personal accusations that have nothing to do with the subject at hand. (But remember, you made me do it... )

I retract my previous comments about a potential political career. You obviously have the capacity for at least normal intelligence. Let me offer you a compliment. I think you have all the makings of a high school physical education teacher, or maybe even an investigative reporter for NBC.

Do you think we are talking to ourselves or is someone else out there who to to chicken@#$% to offer meaningful insight?

Well, just when I am about to drop the hammer on you, you go and compliment me! I am looking forward to your donation to my campaign fund. You are awesome!
