Thought I'd dust off the optics & open the bar for the festive period Xmas Smile

If any of the the old crowd are still around, then do pop in for a Christmas catch up & join me in toasting the end of the beginning!

Onward! To Brexit!

As ever faith you only respond to the argument that suits you, albeit not evenly remotely convincing anyone, and not the difficult bit about the subject of the thread.

You are clearly only here to make yourself feel superior by provoking others.

And then you wonder who's life looks sad and pathetic?

Moussemoose · 17/01/2018 21:37

mummy do you seriously believe the UK was a "sycophant of the EU"?

I am sure the EU didn't, and doesn't, see it that way. Opt outs anyone?

twofingerstoEverything · 17/01/2018 21:37

Do you barge into other threads DEMANDING ANSWERS?

Do, please tell us what you meant by this then, faith, if your intention was NOT to criticise Bear for having the audacity to ask questions on a public forum. Your intention is very, very clear.

Bearbehind · 17/01/2018 21:38

That's where we differ mummmy I don't think this us all unknown.

I have repeatedly asked how committing to no hard border and full alginment to the EU rules with regard to NI and SM is compatible with leaving the SM.

They are all facts.

There's no dispute about the fact they are all aims of this government yet they don't work together.

Why can't we discuss that?

mummmy2017 · 17/01/2018 21:38

Moussemoose

Your really barking up the wrong tree here.

I personally feel that Bear can't accept the break up of the UK and EU.

Believes that they will reconcile, and so can't move onto the next stage that there is hope for the future..

At what point am I trying to stay that Bear is either above or below average intelligence

Historically the insults being directed at Bear were directed at the suffragettes
OMG are you for real...

FaithHopeCharityDesperation · 17/01/2018 21:42

You are clearly only here to make yourself feel superior by provoking others.

😂
Not my motivation at all.
I have no need to 'make myself feel superior', I am perfectly comfortable with my sense of self.

Moussemoose · 17/01/2018 21:42

@mummmy2017

OMG are you for real..

I have backed up all my points with quotes and explanations. The suffragettes were indeed often referred to as "hysterical" and accused of having sad empty lives.

Please make a specific criticism and I will reply. It's called debate. Try it you might like it.

Bearbehind · 17/01/2018 21:43

ODFO mummmy with your armchair psychiatry.

It's not about 'accepting' the break up, that's happening, it's about knowing how it's going to work.

And understanding what the fucking point is if all we end up with is paying for access to the SM, abiding by the rules and having no say in making them.

FaithHopeCharityDesperation · 17/01/2018 21:43

Do, please tell us what you meant by this then, faith, if your intention was NOT to criticise Bear for having the audacity to ask questions on a public forum. Your intention is very, very clear.

I have done so already.

Please feel free to read the thread instead of demanding special one-to-one attention.

mummmy2017 · 17/01/2018 21:43

We can't talk about it because anytime I say that yes I know all about the SC and what your saying about the GFA...
But that
Should there be no agreement we would go to WTO.
No Deal being better than a Bad Deal.
WTO ageement needs a border. has to have a border.
either soft or hard.
May said no border so a soft border,

EU say hard border, so it's the EU that will do this not the UK.

FaithHopeCharityDesperation · 17/01/2018 21:45

ODFO mummmy with your armchair psychiatry.

And yet Mousse's amateur (and woefully inept) analyses go without comment.

mummmy2017 · 17/01/2018 21:45

Hysteria in your words is ONLY reserved for Women...

If it's something that happens to men as well then all your arguments fall on their face.

Bearbehind · 17/01/2018 21:46

faith is clearly riding high on her superiority right now so is being fucking rude to everyone who asks a question she doesn't like.

mummmy has yet to show me where I called her thick or stupid.

This thread is toxic.

FaithHopeCharityDesperation · 17/01/2018 21:47

So go cold turkey & withdraw then if it's too toxic.

Moussemoose · 17/01/2018 21:47

Well I can't accept it. I'm horrified by it for logical, fact based reasons. This in no way reflects upon my personal life.

I am fascinated by the reasoning, or lack thereof, of voters who put us in this calamitous situation. I come on these threads to tease out some sense as to why my children's future has been ransomed.

This does not make me hysterical, it makes me politically aware.

Bearbehind · 17/01/2018 21:49

faith, you are an outright cyber bully.

Stop playing queen bee.

I'm sure this will be deleted but you are being a fucking goady bitch on here.

Either discuss the subject or fuck off.

mummmy2017 · 17/01/2018 21:50

: in 1859, Paul Briquet remarked that "we saw little hysteria in men because we did not want to see it"

Statistical work in the 1880s finally turned the conception of hysteria on its head. In 1882, Jean-Martin Charcot had made a "radical" move by citing Briquet's estimate of hysteria having a 1:20 ratio of incidence in males compared to females,[6]:183 and added a section for male sufferers of hysteria to his Paris hospital, the Salpetrière.[4]:25 A subsequent German study came up with a 1:10 ratio, Georges Gilles de la Tourette then published a 1:2 or 1:3 estimate, and finally Charcot and his student Pierre Marie did a study of 704 cases of patients displaying symptoms of hysteria, finding that 525 of them were males.

Bear is like the Hotel California - she will never leave.

Welcome to the Hotel California - such a lovely place ....Wine

@mummmy2017

No, hysteria is a term that historically has been used specifically for women. The term is medical (Greek) in its origins to describe how women behave. When applied to women it has misogynistic overtones. It was a term frequently applied to the suffragettes for the above reasons.

Obviously the term can be applied to men, I didn't imply it couldn't be applied to men. That would be silly.

twofingerstoEverything · 17/01/2018 21:57

mid 17th century (as an adjective): via Latin from Greek husterikos ‘of the womb’, from hustera ‘womb’ (hysteria being thought to be specific to women and associated with the womb).

Origins of word 'hysteria'/'hysteric'.
Definitely a female insult. Right up there with 'calm down, dear...'

Inkanta · 17/01/2018 21:58

Okay that's enough everyone - just STOP!!

I'm putting down a hard border here

Moussemoose · 17/01/2018 21:58

@Inkanta

Bear is like the Hotel California - she will never leave.

That is very like the bullying you see in schools. It heavily implies "she is here,we don't like her and she won't go".

At this point you turn to your friends and snigger. Lift your hand and whisper behind it. Look at her and laugh.

Do you want Bear pushed out of the group? Should no one talk to her so she leaves? If we make jokes are her expense she might start crying and leave.

FaithHopeCharityDesperation · 17/01/2018 21:58

I'm really not - I'm just responding in kind.

I'm not playing anything, and certainly not 'Queen bee' - why would I?

I haven't reported anything thus far and have no intention to do so, so if it gets deleted then it's not from me.

The subject being discussed wrt to me was based on misquotation & false inference so I wasn't prepared to leave it unchallenged.

twofingerstoEverything · 17/01/2018 21:59

Definitely a female insult (in origin...)
