What I'm saying Ken is that even if someone doesn't have kids, logic would
suggest that putting the words "opposites" and "day" together would imply
that today was indeed opposites day lmao.... its not rocket science.
and no I'm not suggesting parents without kids are "without some level of
intelligence" I perhaps should have been more clear. ANNNNYOONNE who
understands the 2 words should even without knowing the details be able to
put together a silly game. Perhaps a lack of childish spirit?
As for putting my children and the words "convicted pedophile" in the same
sentence. You're going too far. Perhaps you need to give your head a
little shake.... you have an issue with my opinion - keep it directed at me.
As for the insult.... it was not a blanket insult I assure you. It was more
directed to over analytical people like yourself, who jump to conclusions,
ready to fry a guy with only one side of the story.
As for enjoying childish games? I do sometimes enjoy being able to pull an
office chair out of my arse and be a child.....No harm in that.
I made my opinion clear and you've made yours. If you have more to say,
instead of tying up the group with this crap. Feel feel to contact me
directly so we don't have to be so politically correct :)
