Andy's a lucky guy I'm mellow. Where I'm from, those kinds of words
can lead to a very serious ass whipping or even death and that ain't
no shit.

No. Simply stating a fact. There was no threat implied.

Maybe you didn't intent it, but there was a thread implied.
I can't believe there are threads waisted in ACF on Dszady and other
'special' individuals, and I'm contributing.

Of course there was a 'threat implied'.

Usenet, by definition, is a text only medium
============================================
Where I am from, your remarks above would have you kicked into a bloody
pulp by some of the hardest bikers in Wales.
==================================

But, hey, that's just me talking about my friends, yes?

Or is it?

Of course it isn't. It is me attempting to intimidate you by trying to
blur the distinctions between usenet and RL.

This is a point you miss sometimes...

Heh. You're right. I did "intend a thread." However, implication is in
the eye of the beholder. Again, I intended no threat. The goal was
simply to get the point across that Andy is deliberately crossing the
line to try to provoke me into some kind of violent retribution. Ain't
gonna happen, even if the boy does have some kind of death wish or
whatever. On the other hand, as I say he'll get his wish eventually at
somebody else's hands because he's got a lot of enemies out there.

If you don't believe me, try discussing something with him in a
logical fashion and see how quickly it degenerates into a flame war.

And I'm telling you there wasn't. Implied threat is in the eye of the
beholder. My point was that Andy had crossed the line by calling me
the names he did. Now let's see what else he can call me and accuse me
of. After all, I'm not the one who's doing the stalking.

Sounds like it to me.
Or is it?

Of course it isn't. It is me attempting to intimidate you by trying to
blur the distinctions between usenet and RL.

Doesn't sound like that to me. It would sound to me like you're trying
to warn me to not cross the line with others.

Guess I'm still missing it. By the way, usenet IS real life. Don't
know why people think it isn't.

Good grief! I didn't "call you names", I pointed out that you're a liar
and a hypocrite.
