Pedantic, but, you do get energy from water though right?

Well, not much, but certainly more than you do from an imaginary friend...

A couple of quotes I've picked out to help further your understanding.

I was on the canal a couple of year ago and met a walker coming back from Leeds and asked him the direction to Leeds, he pointed me in the direction he came and so I asked him if he walked all the way from there he said yeah and it's his 3rd hour walking, takes 4 hours in total to do 14 miles. Unless he was lying? is that possible, 14 miles in 4 hours or does it take less than that?

Let's have a little think with some primary school maths. 4/14 = 3.5. Average walking speed 3-4 mph so let's say 3.5. Erm, yes, it's possible

I prefer lamb as people say it's organic and not in a factory farm as they graze on grass all day in free space.

People say a lot of things. Lamb is not organic unless it's organic. Here's some over your head science. Grass (sheep's major food source) contains a very low level of energy (not magic) so they need to eat pretty much all their waking hours. This requires lots of space.

Have a read Cody. It's based on facts and evidence and not pixies and magic:

That is missing one of the most important events in the Earths history, gaining a moon.
Of course Cody (or a Texas history teacher) will tell us that god created the Earth in 6 days and despite being an all powerful super being of infinite power and wisdom he the needed a day off to rest.

That's not real. Looks like CGI stuff to me.

No it does mention the moon

rockmonkeysc

It gets a mention but it's one of the most important events in the Earths history.

I don't think he has enough strength to be contagious.

Yes, you're right, in the middle of an off the cuff joke I was attempting to be factual. Really?

Tell you what, you start punctuating your sentences and I'll start checking the facts in my throw away jokes.

Really? I guess the point about you getting your ducks in a row before you start criticising someone else for not doing so is lost on you, then. And if it was such a p!ss poor comeback, why did you bother punctuating?

By the way, isn't it Cody that's supposed to be the troll in this thread?

Is that the default response when you get owned?

Chunkers1980

Owned..... Hardly

POAH wrote:

That's the thing with the internet, you think you're talking to a gown up and then they start drivelling on about getting 'owned' and you realise you've been talking to a child.

I'm guessing you're bored, right? Or are you just fragile and don't want to admit you were being the Joke Police? Well, at least you're punctuating now, so you have learnt something from today's exchange.

Break it up you guys! Its getting to that time of day when cody unleashes his torrent of bizarre, unfathomable and, i hate to admit it (because it actually makes me feel even less fu(ked up than i already am), entertaining wierdness...
Ive long since given up try to talk to cody, there are far more interesting and intelligent brick walls to talk to. And if were are all honest, we all know that the help he needs is far, far beyond the scope of an internet forum

rockmonkeysc

He is beyond help. What he needs is a pint and a steak.

Yep, I know... Your body is made up of a lot of water, and that means your organs too. If your organs aren't working properly due to dehyrdation, your energy output will suffer. That's what I meant anyway

Just been busy over weekend.

I tried a steak at Godfathers in Batley, it was a Mushroom sauce drizzled over a beef steak. Tasted nice. This was last year though, wouldn't eat it again, it gave me breathing problems. Beef is not ideal meat.

Just sold a Hugo Boss Chronograph watch to some guy about an hour ago, I wanted £250 for it, the guy offered me £155 max, he wouldn't budge, so I said a fairer compromise would be £190 but he was complaining they're £270 brand new, and mine was only 6 month old. Sold at £155. Not too happy about it, but I'm not complaining for once.

I spent £620 on a phone this month and had it 2 weeks but, sent my iPhone 6 phone back on Friday last week as I realised I was wasting yet another £600 on something which I didn't need to. I will wait for my upgrade next month and want to go for the 5S in gold and 32gb. Orange quoted me £200 for the handset which I know is a fib. Or I might just buy the handset form a shop, whichever works out cheaper.

I've got a budget on spending this year and it's around £3,500 whereas last year it was a grand more and a target to save between £10-13k by end of year. I will try hard, I believe in myself.

Weather looks like it's improving I've got some riding planned over next few weeks. Full of flu at moment . Just got another review with my consultant this week and hopefully will aim to ride on the weekend or the following weekend. I will try hard, I believe in myself.

I really appreciate all the advice you've given, really helps a lot.

Yes it is. Try again.

Another contradiction of your own earlier ramblings.

Last week you said you had your dad's upgrade. How many phones have you got?

No way!

Cody wrote:

You mean you have a cold. If you had flu you wouldn't be able to get out of bed, go to work or 'be busy'.

Cody, you really need to have a long, hard think about where you are going with your life and what you want to do. Over analysing your eating habits / meal requirements and believing a mythical being will help you with anything is clearly not doing you any good.
