Greetings

I'm marrying a Norwegian and living in Norway, that's about as close as it gets. It's not all *that* cold


Congratulations on your marriage. No the least few winters have been mild, disturbingly mild, that that I complain I am used to cold but when I get minus 30 degrees C and lower that is cold, but last winter there was only a few days like that. But this warming climate is disturbing as when I was a child that is how cold it was most of the winter, I am thinking this global warming thing is actually quite terrifying.

I wish you well

Not to knock the Norweigans, but as a Canadian I happen to believe that I already live in a civilized society.

As for the cold part, I can easily be freezing when it is 30C outside. My feet and hands are frequently so cold that they ache, and my touch can actually paunful to otherd.

Oh! That could actually be of some benefit on this site! Forget the vampyre gloves, I will simply torment you with my frozen digits! LOL

It grieves me to learn yours limit you from benefitting from, or being mentally stimulated by, what Rule offers, whether you agree with him or not. I take comfort in knowing I do not suffer the same malady, as there is room on my internal planet for more than just my insignificant self and opinions.

May I say I believe in you, Greedy, and sincerely invite you to do the same? What say we dispense with the slings and arrows of outrageous fortune that only serve to create division, separation and alienation? Is that your original, conscious intent?


Dusky, I've always liked you, but that is the most self righteous speech I've ever heard on the forums, including any of my own. Why do you think your (or Rule's) veiled insult is any better than Greedy's candid one?

I insulted someone? Where?

Sorry. I always regret posting impulsively.

Normally I'm pretty happy to jump on the "don't be unfair to the OP" train. I think posters often deliberately misunderstand what's said in order to get snarky with someone.

I don't think this thread falls into that category. What I see is Rule acting like a troll. He hasn't made any argument at all in favor of his position. He's not interested in discussing this. He's merely baiting people, all the while pretending to be the innocent victim instead if the instigator.

It's silly to defend him. Save your indignation for a better cause.

Rule -> RE: Do you want to be a Norwegian? (8/28/2012 12:34:52 AM)

That was an interesting rant - though misplaced.

To get back on track, since you apparently failed to notice the poll: Do you want to be a Norwegian?

Then here.

The thread that makes clear that the Norwegians are the most civilized people on Earth.

Thannnkkk youuu!
I thought I was the only one who could
see that...
I mean.....
Come on....

Dusky, I think it's great you wanna stick up
for people and treat them with respect and
all that, but Rule is only saying all this
random stuff to get people to react to him,
for what purpose I'm not really sure...
All he seems to do is prevoke ridicule and
then bask in it...

Rule -> RE: Do you want to be a Norwegian? (8/28/2012 4:38:47 AM)

You are free not to react to me. You do not have anything interesting to say anyway, so by not reacting you will be doing me and everybody else a service.

Look here, Aries, I think that you are an honest person, but then also recognize that there are a lot of issues that you cannot tackle.

The essence of this thread is simple: Do you want to be a Norwegian?




Silentrunner26 -> RE: Do you want to be a Norwegian? (8/28/2012 4:52:06 AM)

I wonder if I could be happy at just being a normal human again ?




Rule -> RE: Do you want to be a Norwegian? (8/28/2012 8:56:57 AM)

Umm?

Thanks, Pam. You worded it so well! I was leaning more towards a profanity laden response.which would have in all liklihood have gotten me [AA].




Rule -> RE: Do you want to be a Norwegian? (8/28/2012 9:40:55 AM)

And I have always liked Pam's sense of humor, but this evil that she has now revealed I do not like at all. Please do not ever mail me, Pam. I am putting your posts on Hide.

ETA: Frankly, this development is making me sick to my stomach. It hurts me.




ashjor911 -> RE: Do you want to be a Norwegian? (8/28/2012 1:19:15 PM)

i have what they call a cut cock... do i apply? or its to late for me?




LadyHibiscus -> RE: Do you want to be a Norwegian? (8/28/2012 1:31:49 PM)

When I was in elementary school I saw a film about Norway, and we were told that in order to teach there we'd have to learn Norwegian, and pass a test on Norwegian history. (This would have been around 1970) I admit that I was intrigued.

I remain content to be an Italian/American, and enjoy studying the cultural heritage of other countries.

I agree that we never need to engage trolls of any kind, Rule is very correct. I think that we're all used to his style of...discourse? at this point, and have tolerance for it or not. I will always think fondly of Rule for instigating the FMC, an event he claims to have no memory of. (Tinfoil working extra hard that day! [:)])

Ash, I'm not sure how many Muslims there are in Norway, I am betting the answer is NOT MANY. Think SE Michigan... we have whole areas with street signs in Arabic!




Rule -> RE: Do you want to be a Norwegian? (8/28/2012 1:33:51 PM)

I recommend that you read Saint Paul.

Have you replied to the poll?




LadyHibiscus -> RE: Do you want to be a Norwegian? (8/28/2012 3:28:23 PM)

Since Ash is not Christian, perhaps you could recommend a specific reading for him.

It has been 25 years since I read the Bible myself. I do know that everything Paul wrote is of interest, though I do not always agree with him.
