Maths for mongs

[Priesty]

If a 20% discount off �100 is �80, what calculation would if use if I knew the �80 answer but needed to gross it up?

[Priesty]

Ignore me please, I was trying to prove a point to someone, but now its sorted.

I find the use of the word 'mongs' highly offensive. It is short for mongoloid, a term that used to be used for people with Down'es Syndrome. My sister has this condition and has had to put up with offensive comments for most of her life.

[Priesty]

I thought Mongoloid was the name of a transformer

[Kathyan]

I agree spinchimp.

[stevie21]

spinchimp - agreed. That was the first thing I thought of even though
1. I'm not very PC
and
2. I'm sure that Priesty was meaning to be self deprecating rather than offensive.

[Wee Kaz]

Agreed, Mong is highly offensive and I'm surprised AB let it through the net! Choose your words carefully Priesty the next time.

[spinchimp]

I'm sure Priesty doesn't give a toss about offending anyone, hence his pathetic follow up joke (Solenoid, in case you are wondering).

[Priesty]

I'm sorry if I caused any offence, I don't think about the things I write, I can be a right spaz sometimes.

[Wee Kaz]

I can think of other more apt words to describe you but no doubt they'd be starred out, tos*er!
