I dunno.
I personally wouldn't use such a pejorative term until I knew a little more about the case (even where in this case, it seems pretty clear cut).
Actually, I don't think I *would* use the term at all...even if others do.
I prefer to stick to 'knuckle-dragger'.
Horses for course as they say.

you are every bit as prejudiced as those you accuse of using these terms.
personally i haven't forgotten, which you likely have, that it wouldn't bother you if white people were in the minority, it was a while ago, strangely i haven't forgotten it, maybe if we were all coffee coloured, but you know what that doesn't work either, as i recall unflattering comments between my then West Indian b/f and his mates about very dark skinned Africans, rude and rather surprising.

I think you are referring to something from last year where I said I wouldn't care if white people became the minority in London, right?
I still don't.
I am not fussed who I live amongst, as long as they are decent people who put their rubbish out on time, don't litter, aren't noisy and are happy to take deliveries for our house when I'm out.
I would not want to live in an area which is 100% white! or 100% black! or 100% Asian or 100% gay or 100% straight. I like a good mix of people. That's what I was trying to get across.
I am sorry that you are hanging on to this for so long, because the only person it hurts is you. Even I am happy to let go of some of AOG's more 'fruity' exchanges.
If it still hurts you, I am sorry - but more accurately, I really, really, really don't care.

Sorry - what I mean is...I apologised for upsetting you when you brought it up on a further thread.
This is why I am finding it difficult to give a flying monkeys that you're still harbouring this seed of displeasure.
I am more than happy to curtail any conversation with you, because I know I can be a bit of a git at times. If you would like this to be our last exchange, no worries - enjoy your time on AB. I will be certain to avoid speaking with you again.
I really don't want to upset anyone on AB with my flippancy, and if this is the best way to ensure it, no hard feelings...and goodbye.

Are you being 'flippant' again or 'just a bit of a git' ? (your own descriptions of yourself not mine)
Because that is one of the most hilarious statements you have made.
You hang on to every thing I put, and will regurgitate them at every opportunity, even in other threads that are not connected to them, just as long as you are sure I have seen therm.

Oh but they do, you were noticeable by your absence in this thread.

I'm being honest.
I don't really care.
I really don't hang on to everything you say - but when you're displaying what (in my opinion) is a hypocritical standpoint (remember the whole PC Blakelock / Stephen Lawrence thing), I feel that it's only fair to recall your previous statements.
However, I'm very specific in my regurgitation.
And when you have apologised in the past, I have let it go.
I apologised to emmie, but she is still referring to it, so in order to ensure she is not caused any further distress, I'm offering to sever any further discussions with her.
Not because I'm peeved...it's out of sheer pragmatism.
I'm sure if there were people on AB who wound you up, you would want to stop conversing with them right?
I apologise for missing your thread. I have no excuse.
I hope you can find it in your hear to forgive me for that, and for the obvious sarcastic tone of this sentence...which we both knows is completely unnecessary

Neanderthals have been incorrectly labled as being of low intelliegence , but the truth is that the 2 sub species co-existed for at least 20,000 years possibly as long as 50,000 years. All the scientific date (brain volume etc) suggests they were equal to modern man in brain power and physically stronger.
