Rambi, I am much older and probably not wiser but happy and about to leave on daytrip by boat to an island being returned to its natural state [in as much as that's possible since many birds are extinct and one can never go back - the world does march onwards in the arrow of time]. It's a great day so can't dally, although it would be nice to stay and have a big fight.

Yes, I am here to cause trouble. No, jfred didn't call for reinforcements [I was clicking on a few posts he'd made after meeting in 'deflation'] - iconoclasts and individualists tend to act independently [if in concert at times]. Being in a gang is inherently unattractive to such people - their thoughts might be contaminated by ape-like ideas which gangs commonly espouse. Check out Genoa for example.

I've just arrived at the match, so perhaps my perception of the score is wrong.

I hope your little darlings are all growed up and sorting out the world via the United Nations as well as direct action with their friends and family.

I'll be back to fight later, [I don't have time just now, but X's racist definition seemed confused and reduced the word to a pointless and useless insult - just as jfred expected. But usually people don't even try to justify such comments, so that was good; it means there is communication].

Mquarice and I have formed a transnational Gang of Iconoclasts, but it's proven difficult to maintain any sort of order. No one will follow the rules. No one will agree that there are any rules. It's been as difficult as organizing the Gang of Procrastinators.

I do not love to argue! It's that Janus-faced X who starts all the arguing. She'll argue with herself if there's no one else to pester.

I've gotta catch up on all these posts. I'll tell you about my exciting hallucinatory spider bite experience later.
