In response to treading water posted by pink101:

Pink. I say I don't follow your point and from then on, the rest of this "discussion" has been based on my futile responses to you saying YOU don't understand me.

So, any "parrying" going on annoys the hell out of me and is clearly part of the game you are playing. Let's play "see how long redback will still answer without me (pink) giving any answer of substance".

I'm guessing if I had totally agreed with you or totally disagreed over in the other M & S section, you'd have regaled us with your arsenal of pre-prepared answers. But if I say I don't understand, you lazily reverse it ie say you don't understand me. A cop-out strategy. And I'm the dickhead that keeps giving you the benefit of a decreasing doubt.

You have "diagnosed" 'metacommunication' for all this which goes to your predeliction for Communication Studies rather than talking to the topic. Talking about how we're talking with each other is exactly what I'm temporarily trapped into doing...and it also annoys the hell out of me. Given your related silence, it must also give the lie to your claimed reasons for posting here that I've cited.

No...I was never a social worker although I have managed a few in my time. Among other things, I've been a policy analyst in Government, a special magistrate and had a range of other career experiences I've already bored people with here. A part of the baggage has involved persevering with people.

Crikey...not crickey..is a mild oath and derives from shorthand for Christ. It is something like Gee Whiz which apparently derived from shorthand for Jesus.

Anyhow, over & out.
