Ah the inconsistent view of reality that says English accent on eircom phones: Good - but American accents in Shannon: Bad?

If it's a minor pointless complaint surely then to suggest that those who complain about minor things are 'scum' - and even to suggest that they do not deserve to live at all - is to live in the same tent as hatemongers that judge whether other people have lives that are worth living at all.

With apologies to Goodwin it's only a short step from telling the wide world on the web that another person's life is 'meaningless' or 'pointless' - and on the flimsiest of evidence mind - does remind my of someone from the history books.

So the plea is for Huh to lighten up and moderate his/her language - and to refrain from posting what are effectively hate-filled, poisonous posts - effectively what s/he purports to decry. Try practicing what is being preached and to stop referring to other posters on this board as 'scum', 'inbred', 'fascist', 'gobdaw', 'brainwashed'. It's just nasty.

While we appreciate Huh you have obvious "innate righteousness and superiorority" that allows you to KNOW that other posters have 'pointless' and 'meaningless 'lives' based on a simple plea to have Irish accents on Irish telecoms answering systems - it is a tad over the top, eh? huh?

When you argue against people who have a belief in their "innate righteousness and superiority" it defeats the argument to suggest that they they should not bother living at all (i.e. pointless meaningless lives and complaining about trivia) with a totally over the top hatred-filled response.
