so long

Dear All,

Obviously for what ever reason i am offending people when it was not my intentions...
In my own words i was trying to say that i saw another company accomodations and a few guys are bound for a surprise when they join...
But when somebody writtes about married guys in a funny way...it must be because he is divorcing.
When somebody writtes about life down here, again trying to do it in a different way...He must be a maniac depressive surelly not in command of anything.
When somebody writtes about single guys, it must be because he is unable to get out and have fun, to get a girl, or get laid, or whatever.
So, i am both at the same time ? a dream of a lot of guys i know.
When somebody writtes in a language that is not his own, he is dislexic.
Sorry, its true, english is not my mother tongue.
But then again,since i speak 4 other ones, i am not ashamed of it.
At least i show some interest in other cultures.
Some of you guys are really uneducated and showing agressivity when there is no reason.

i should have written about the scandal of my company changing the color of the toilet paper without asking my authorization.

so long.
You win, it took me one week to be fed up of you.

Don't worry Fantomas

Some of the blokes here have already fried their brains here in the sandpit. Too long here, no sense of humor. After a while it gets to you. See the other thread: You are too long in the Middle East when

Cheers mate, don't give up, keep posting more of this funny stuff.

Excellent stuff FF, I think there is some latent writing talent hidden in there somewhere! Just when I was getting tired of the usual PPRuNe drivel that seems to be commonplace these days , you came along and brightened up our lives. We might not all agree with everything you say but then I don't think that is really the point, it is entertaining even to some of us coming from the "developed world" don't worry.
Keep it up and looking forward to the next edition

flying.fantomas,

Your funny posts come as a breath of fresh air compared to the overly tense, aggressive and negative contributions all over the Middle East Forum.

Do not feel discouraged by some members here, and trust many understand and sympathize with you.

I enjoyed them too. Don't worry what those morons with no sense of humor have to say. If they don't like it they don't have to read it!!

Well guys - if you find these posts of FF at all funny then I'll get my young boys to tell you some 'knock knock' or 'doctor doctor' jokes.... Should be about the right level of understanding for some of you

WK,

Maybe you underestimate your Kids' level of understanding.

Get the Doctor to knock on your head and find out what's realy inside that grey matter of yours.

FF

Get over yourself. You are not funny. I totally respect your command of four languages (if that is true), but you are still not educational, informative or entertaining.

Now go to bed.

Well, believe it or not, I'm happy to defend FFs right to post whatever he likes.

If he does, however, he needs to grow a thicker skin. He writes a bunch of border-line offensive "humor", then gets extremely prickly when criticized, offered an alternate point of view or has a joke made of HIS shortcomings as a writer of English!

I particularly liked the "I didn't mean to offend anybody" bit, after throwing personal insults at anybody who didn't praise him on his rapier wit, and has now taken his bat and ball and gone home to Mum!!

FF, write what you like. Just realize that writing in a public place opens you up to public criticism- and that includes your spelling!!

Now you know that French people and the Brits don't share the same sense of humour...(if I guessed right!)

How dare those daterdley Asians and A-Rabs offer decent terms and conditions to Professtional pilots!

Cheap labour is the soverion right of every Australian employer (although a brick-layer now earns more than a Saab 340 Captain) and it should be protected by military intervention if necessary!


Rex management has been doing a great deal of bleating in the Australian press in an attempt the smoke-screen it's own short-sightedness, but the emporers clothos are looking absent!!
And the above post from the extensive oz portfolio is by no means an isolated incident.

WTF,

Thanks, makes my point exactly. If I'm going to post and not get the spelling right, I have to be prepared to wear the consequences.

And, as eight out of your last ten posts have been specifically to have a go at me, I can rest assured any transgression will be dutifully jumped on by your good self (actually, nine months late. Kindly get your finger out!).

Do you have ANY idea how flattering it is to have my own, personal conscience, fact and spell checker, who will troll back through nine months of posts to show me the light?

Makes one go a little misty....

It's dirty work but it has to be done.

But it was more fun when you used to get angry, I treasure my collection of indignant oz PMs. Shame you wised up.
