I'm not up with internet lingo. I don't understand half what I read these days...

I know the Aussie way. I am surrounded by other Diggers who when not working, spend every spare minute either drinking, banging, fighting, or taking the piss.

Another keyboard warrior. No worries tough guy. You know how hard I am and what I need. Thanks for the advice. Make you feel big did it?

***Edit***

I cannot completely let that go. I'll cop being called "princess" from a fellow soldier (which will receive the appropriate retailiatory strike), but not from some internet forum muppet. Do some service before you advise others to harden up.

Sits back and watches, this could be fun LOL

I am guessing your comment "I'll cop being called a princess" means you were in the navy. (throws another log on the fire - sits back to watch the flames LOL)

PS - LOL = Laugh out loud

FLAME = argument over the internet

mid life crisis was just taking the piss, buy each other a beer and get over it.

I absolutely LOVE tax this analogy:

You've heard the cry: "It's just a tax cut for the rich!"

But what does that really mean?

The following explanation may help...

Suppose that every day, 10 men go out for dinner. The bill for all 10 comes to $100. They decide to pay their bill the way we pay our taxes, and it goes like this:

* The first four men (the poorest) pay nothing

* The fifth pays $1

* The sixth $3

* The seventh $7

* The eighth $12

* The ninth $18

* The tenth man (the richest) pays $59

All ten were quite happy with the arrangement, until one day, the owner said: "Since you are all such good customers, I'm going to reduce the total cost of your daily meal by $20."

So now dinner for the 10 only cost $80. The group still wanted to pay their bill the way we pay our taxes.

The first four men were unaffected. They would still eat for free. But how should the other six, the paying customers, divvy up the $20 windfall so that everyone would get his "fair share"?

They realised that $20 divided by six is $3.33. But if they subtracted that from everybody's share, then the fifth and sixth men would each end up being paid to eat. The restaurateur suggested reducing each man's bill by percentages, thus:

* The fifth man, like the first four, now paid nothing (100% saving)

* The sixth paid $2 instead of $3 (33% saving)

* The seventh paid $5 instead of $7 (28% saving)

* The eighth paid $9 instead of $12 (25% saving)

* The ninth paid $15 instead of $18 (17% saving)

* The tenth paid $49 instead of $59 (17% saving)

Each of the six was better off, and the first four continued to eat for free, but outside the restaurant, the men began to compare their savings.

"I only got a dollar out of the $20," declared the sixth man.

He pointed to the tenth man "but he got $10!"

"That's right," exclaimed the fifth man. "I only saved a dollar too. It's unfair that he got ten times more than me!"

"That's true!" shouted the seventh man. "Why should he get $10 back when I got only $2? The wealthy get all the breaks!

"Wait a minute," yelled the first four men in unison. "We didn't get anything at all. The system exploits the poor!" The nine men surrounded the tenth and beat him up.

The next night the tenth man didn't show up for dinner. The nine sat down and ate without him, but when they came to pay the bill, they discovered that they didn't have enough money between all of them for even half of it.

That, boys and girls, journalists and college professors, is how our tax system works. The people who pay the highest taxes get the most benefit from a tax reduction. Tax them too much, attack them for being wealthy, and they just may not show up at the table anymore. There are lots of good restaurants in Monaco and the Caribbean!!

I get very pissed off around January, as I know that every dollar I earn until the end of June I am giving almost half to the government. I understand there needs to be taxes, but I work 60-70 hours per week and earn every cent I get paid. Tax hurts

i thought that not all cars will do exactly the same speed due to the wide veriety manufacturers different styles of speedo set up etc, there is supposed to be a law that states a 10% leniency either way of the posted speed

Nice try. Were in the Navy? No. Am in the Army.

His first post fair enough appears to be a piss take. That is why I asked. His reply, he can be a big fish in a little pond if he wants. I won't lose any sleep over a forum member questioning my fortitude when I deal with real fights, and real men, as part of my daily life...

lol and your calling him a keyboard warrior?

Yes I am. I don't fight on the internet. I save it for the real deal. Not quite sure where you are going with that...

Pity a contribution about a political topic has turned into this shite. My time is better spent elsewhere. Flame away as I am sure some of you will. I'll try to contain my tears.

Out.

[Damo_R34]

You call this a fight? It has not even started (and will not as it is pointless). OK. You win.

n sorry dude but the saving the fighting for the real deal i hope the real deal is over something more meaningfull than a stupid squirell/possum miscommunication

The definition of the real deal depends on if you ask the greens, the labor party, or the coalition...

Had enough. I won't let the door hit me on the way out.
