Retard

[ATAG_Snapper]

Sorry to hear of this, Drewpee. I ask you to reconsider your decision to go and perhaps take some time off instead as you see fit. The offensive and unfortunate choice of words that were used in debate is not a reflection of the majority here who share your disgust.

Many of us have experienced personal family tragedy in various circumstances to at least realize the anguish an ill-chosen or cruel phrase or expression can cause, although we can't pretend to know the specific challenges that you have faced daily for so many years. However, we do have an awareness -- and this is why I sincerely hope you stay with us as a friend among friends.

As a like-minded group we can perhaps find some common enjoyment and distraction for a few moments in pursuing our mutual interest in shooting each other down and blowing things up! I always look forward to your posts and wish to continue doing so. My Dad was a digger from Wallaroo Mines (RAAF 1942 - 45), so I have some Aussie blood in these Canuck veins. He passed on one trait to me that I treasure: fight hard and passionately, then have a beer and say "Booger them all, they're all great galahs"

So, don't go. Have a beer and booger 'em all!
