Okay.

RR - How sweet. Does your friends run to the candyshop together hand-in-hand and buys each other lollipops? Do you know why i seem to have all the answers, RR? Because, i am a cynic. I tend not to cover my eyes with rose-tinted glasses, and gloss over all the scary bits just because it doesn't conform with my beliefs. All this things you're talking about sounds like one side of a story indeed. The 'whoa, we didn't mean it to get this far' story.

RR, do you know what a Revisionist is? One of its closest kin is an Apologist. They're the people who deny the atrocities of a past event by presenting to the world a version of past events so fixed up, so glossed over that it becomes almost drama-like by comparison. One such example could be found here.

Check out the site, cause i believe it'll be of help to you.

How do you know that there weren't any personal matters, RR? Are you a mindreader, by any chance? But i digress. Perhaps 'some' of the members of 'that' football team actually didn't 'know of the goalkeeper's existence'. But somehow, i do find that statement of yours really funny. We're Bruneians, remember? We're ****ing busybodies! We want to know the affairs of everybody else, 'cause guess why? We're ****ing Bruneians! Everybody knows everybody else, and whatever it is they're doing, 'cause we're ****ing busybody Bruneians! And since our beloved country is a small Sultanate of 350,000 people living on a patch of land 5,865 Sq. Km in size, everybody's bound to hear of everybody else. Students of our country living in a foreign country just amplifies that particular matter twofold, for the simple reason that there's so few Bruneians. Or do you not have many friends here, RR? Just those bunch of people, and no one else?

I won't even attempt to point out to you how what you said there is also a point of contradictoriness, or did you forget your previous tags?

'The stupid goalkeeper of budak kampung is probably just perasan that yada yada yada...'

Wow. What an enlightenment. I so never knew thaaaaat, else i wouldn't have started this discussion. Can anyone feel the sarcasm bubbling out of that previous line? Hey RR, do you realise that the same could be said of your side, specifically the part where you said 'he needs to realise that the world does not revolve around him...'? Or are you just a bit too scared to ask the opinion of a neutral? One who is neither from your side of the fence, or from my side? I'm not suggesting anything, though. Just a helpful comment for you.

And oh, the part about the dictionaries wasn't meant for you, if you actually bothered to read the post you'd know that. It was actually for another person who tagged before you, maybe you'd know of him. Not paying attention now are you?

Proofreading, heh... I haven't done that in years. Now i don't mean MY work getting proofread, i meant my proofreading for others. Else what conceivable use could i have for this Linguistic degree i'm pursuing? On argument structuring, i have my Philosophy module. There we argue about the existence of God, the fallacies of modern politics, etc etc. You know, heavy stuff. You'd probably be familiar with that i gather, but maybe not. So RR, in arguing something so inconsequential as this with someone like you, i don't need any help.

Yes, RR, i did agree that friends do react, how many times must i agree on you on this? And how many times must i tell you that i have no problems with that? And how many times must i tell you that this is not what i'm talking about? Again, what i strongly disagree with is the methods/tactics used, not the driving force behind the event. Suckerpunches, stomps to the body whilst lying down, kicks to the head whilst lying down again, another pinning the victim (and he surely is in this case, can you disagree with that?) to the floor whilst the others around the both of them are kicking the life out of the victim.

If this was a courtroom RR, i'd win without even trying. That's why i annoy all of you. That's why i seem to have all the answers. Because you see, that is what others saw. That is what the video shows. That is why a lot of people agree with me, though they chose not to be so vocal as i do. That is a personal choice. I'm sure you understand that, RR.

You see RR, people are incensed because of what occured in the video, as it is a sign of the problems that are facing today's youth. If young, impressionable kids who love football saw that video, it'll get them thinking that its okay to fight in football. Its cool. It means i'm the stronger guy. Even though i only kicked him in the head whilst he was lying down, i'm still better than him.

RR, i've been on both ends of that fence. I've been on the receiving end of beatings, i've been on the dishing out end. For the record, you're not talking to a newbie, like yourself. I know how fights revolve, before, during and after. A mark of cowardice is, in my most humble opinion, is this - "Suckerpunches, stomps to the body whilst lying down, kicks to the head whilst lying down again, another pinning the victim (and he surely is in this case, can you disagree with that?) to the floor whilst the others around the both of them are kicking the life out of the victim, four against one". That's why i'm angry. That's why a lot of people are angry. The methods used, not the reasons why.

Am i pissing everybody off, RR? Or am i only pissing off your side? Don't be so presumptuous in presenting yourself as the voice of everybody else. I have often repeated time and time again in my posts that these are my views, and mine alone. Your measly tags are insinuating that you are talking for everybody else, excluding myself. You think i am trying to get people to believe what i say, so may i ask what is it you're doing? Isn't that the same thing?

Oh, of course, you'll say "we're only trying to balance out your arguments and show you the other side of the story!".

*scrolls up the tagboard*

Oh, apparently you just did.

"...when the fact of the matter is, your belief is biased and completely wrong."

Hmm.

"Maybe it seems like we're being biased too but we're only trying to balance out your arguments and show you the other side of the story!"

?

I have serious doubts whether you know what an argument is. For one thing, when arguing you do not leave out such gaping holes as THIS. This is just begging the question. So my beliefs are biased and wrong, and your beliefs are to balance out mine. Umm, a question? Why are MY views the biased ones and are completely wrong? Why aren't yours? Why are yours only 'to balance out your arguments' arguments? Why is it not possible that you're the ones having biased and completely wrong views, and i am trying to balance out your arguments?

Of course, you'll say that i started it first.

*BEEP* wrong answer. The one who started it first was the one who swung the first punch.

*sigh* 'hoohaa' is not a catechism of mine, it was the nick of the tagger who tagged before you, RR. Could you please get yourself straightened out before you ask other people to straighten themselves out? You accuse me of trying to be smartalecky, so what was that crap you just pulled?

'we don't have time to deal with anymore of your HOOHAAS!'

Are you actually trying to be subtle and devious? A pun on my written work? A smartass play on my words?

*sigh... eyes pointed to the ceiling, imploring the skies for a thunderbolt to reduce me to ashes.*

So this would be the last time you guys tagged huh... since it is your opinion that you guys have 'straighten things out'. So your views are the correct ones, eh?

*sigh*

Okay.

1. This conflicts with your statement that you're 'only trying to balance out your (i.e.mine) arguments...'

2. You're leaving yourself open to the question, again, 'Who confirmed that what you say is, in your opinion, the real truth?'

3. You're begging to be asked, 'How do you have the ability to straighten things out? Are you people purveyors of justice or something? Can you back up what you say with something that is at least not totally conjecture?'.

Peace to you too, RR. Pardon me if i don't smile, all this dessication of idiotic arguments has left a bad taste in my mouth.

thefren - Now maybe YOU should grow up, too. How do you know that CR hasn't got anything to do with this? Do you know who CR is? I doubt it. So how do you know that he hasn't got anything to do with this? For all you know you might be talking to to the goalkeeper himself, or the referee of the match, or the matchball being used. For the record, i do know who CR is, and he has EVERYTHING to do with this. So shush.

atul5353 - Maybe RR doesn't know how to use the comments function, no?

7stars supporter - whoa, easy cowboy. Relek2 eh. Lets not drop down to their level now, okay? *snigger*
