zonder. You said..... "Those were not personal questions. Your question is a personal question about my background. I did not answer, you insisted. I said I will not answer because it is a personal question."....

I asked you a question which was a direct result of a statement you made voluntarily about your personal life. I have also said to you that you need not answer any questions and yet you still persist with this stupid don't ask personal questions bit and insist on making some big deal of it where there was really NOTHING done wrong.
You have posted different things about your personal life which will invite questions about your personal life so if you don't want those kind of questions perhaps you should stop inviting them. Duh :-)

You said...." When I insist, as in the case of our dear friend Darren, it is on a matter relevant to the issue that he is ducking. It is hardly a personal matter that I am pushing him to disclose.".....

Let me see if I am getting your rules for posting on this and other threads correct.

1) It is ok for you to insist that another poster answer your questions but other poster are not to do this.

2) only non personal questions should be asked even as in your case you invite personal questions.

I kind of think that all questions are personal as it requires an answer that may well indicate something personal about that person.....you know like male-female, education, grammar those kind of things that you like so much to point out about fellow posters....you get what I am saying? oops hope that's not a personal question. :o)

You said...." I saw that you had not said so, and that it was the overall tone of your posts that gave the impression.We settled that. It is no excuse for you to repeat the mistake, now is it"....

You had said that I hated muslims, you were wrong, your above reply is not good enough. You should have said sorry I WAS WRONG and moved on. I have done this in the past when I was wrong and even posters who can't stand me have done this sort of thing to me when they were wrong. People who own up to their mistakes deserve some respect. You on the other hand....................................

You said....." That is very cheap, Lorne. To point out the obvious, I do not have a bikini while sitting in my office in the month of December, and 'grey matter' is found way above where you think it is. That is something else you are thinking of. ".....

You said....." That is something else you are thinking of. ".....

Is that supposed to be a question or a statement? Sorry for the question.... In any case it is very personal and I choose not to answer if it is a question. So don't ask it again or I will have to make a big deal out of it. OK
If it is a statement it is wrong cuz I picture you motoring around on a broomstick...not my type. :-)

It's not cheap, it was meant to be funny that's why the happy face at end of statement. You just got no sense of humor and besides I have no idea what you may wear at the office. I thought about where in your case your grey matter may be located and I think I had your anatomy figured out correct. :-) <<<<<<< Happy face!
