Vous cassez vous gros porc.

It never fails to amaze me how often an 
innocuos-trying-to-be-helpful-message is so often met with a smart arse 
ripost from one of the regular ufdm smartarses.

No wonder only the head up their arses regs post here. (mainly).

Go fuck yourself, Martin, after you have done your daily ration of arse 
licking. (Where is he by the way?)

I must be missing something here.  Why was Martin's question so

Oho! Another of the regular head-up-arse posters butts in to defend the 
Martin creep.

OF COURSE YOU WERE BOTH MISSING SOMETHING!

Just click on either of the fucking links provided and you get the answer to 
your vapid query.

But oh no, it is so much smarter to show off the superiority of ufdm regular 
posters and discourage the hoi-polloi from invading Mike's group.

I believe the person replying to it is a troll, Sacha.  My system will 
not pick him up.  He was around earlier this year when one of our 
regulars insisted on befriending him and if he is the same person, he 
caused a lot of trouble then. I thought he had gone.  It will be 
interesting to see if the same regular poster backs him up again.  Happy 
days :(

Obviously Ms. Hughes's brain has not improved during my absence. Apart from 
anything else, are you too incapable of seeing who was doing the trolling in 
this thread? A link plus a TinyUrl was posted to the book in question. I 
hoped this would help anyone interested in the book. Instead, I received a 
stupid answer to my post asking what language the book was written in.

FFS! Instead of posting a reply asking *that*, the troll Martin simply had 
to click ONCE on his mouse and the answer would have been there before his 
very eyes! Now tell me who was trolling?

Sacha was also incapable of seeing this point, only being intent on 
protecting a regular even though he had deliberately posted a follow-up with 
the intent of causing some type of disruption.

Martin is still a cunt and *you* Hughes are the second biggest cunt in this 
group after you know who. (And you are treading on very thin ice with your 
not very veiled remarks about a "regular". I meant what I said months ago 
about what might happen if you insisted going down that route. Do not think 
the warning has expired.

That's right, dear, you just <snip> the pertinent point of the post and then 
you feel you don't have to answer it, do you?

But it hasn't gone away, you know.

I repeat:

"OF COURSE YOU WERE BOTH MISSING SOMETHING!
Just click on either of the fucking links provided and you get the answer to
your vapid query."

That's it! One single itty-bitty mouse click! Just the one! And poor 
Martin's misery about whether the book was written in French is solved! 
Simple, innit?

¿Que Paso?

Over here, the Larusse is readily available in used book stores, clean 
used, older copies for around $5.00 U.S.D.

I was going to order something on line the other day just cause it was 
not readily available locally, and the 'shipping and handling' cost of 
the inexpensive, lightweight item was more than the cost of the item.

What should have been a $1 or $2 dollar item would have ended up costing 
me $12.00 with "shipping & handling" charges.

On another occasion i was trying to find an online source so a friend of 
mine who lives in an rural area could try cooking with Chinese rice 
wine, specifically the Shao Xing rice wine which i pay about $1.50 per 
bottle 25 ounce bottle for locally.  The cheapest i could find on the 
next was $16 + shipping and handling.

There's a computer tutorial hawked on american t.v. as "FREE" ....'yes 
FREE you will be so impressed with our FREE offer you will want more of 
our products, just send $10.00 for 'shipping and handling' for your FREE 
computer tutorial."

Needless to say im not a fan of 'mail order' or Internet shopping.

posted what, can't say I use larousse much nowadays, what was the question
in the first place?
