... which is a shame really, as your behaviour stifles many other potentially interesting debates, they get bogged down in pointless arguments. I suppose you just can’t help yourself. Pot calling kettle alert!!!!

Anyway, here is the template for the next debate: Telemachus: “... I therefore think the answer is 4.” Random TBer: “ How can you possibly think the answer is 5! You are such a terrible person” Telemachus: “No, read my post, I said the answer was 4” Another random TBer: “If you think the answer is 5 you are a fool. I really hope never to meet you on the cut, you have no idea what you are talking about” Repeat ad infinitum. Until I come along and say it's 3, as any fule kno, pair of ignorant twats. I have strong emotional reasons for saying so, that Trump any rational reasoned argument. Now let's look at Brexit again.....

But saying you think the answer is 3 is fine, although preferably with some local justification. My objection is when I’m told I’m a cunt for saying the answer is 5 when in fact I’ve said all along it is 4.

Well if you understand it's an insult I fail to grasp why you don't know what I am talking about. I'm surprised they thing got off the ground given the size of your head.” which is therefore just a random and uninformed insult for the sake of it. You've got to admit it's funny though.

If you find it funny, that’s fine laugh yourself to bits! But it didn’t seem to have any merit to me on the humour stakes. Maybe we have differing senses of humour. The helicopters I flew had a takeoff weight of 11 tonnes and a payload of around 5 tonnes so it would seem unlikely that it would struggle to get airborne even if my head was the largest head in all of humanity. It has to be said though, it is quite a large head. I struggle with hats. That is the cross I have to bear for having such an enormous brain.

I suppose you have big hands as well. Everyone knows what having big hands means.
Big gloves.

Maybe because I'm not a dour and humourless Scotsman? 2. Yes, that's the whole point of a joke- the juxtaposition of incongruities. Even the largest human head in the world would weigh no more than a couple of kilograms more than the smallest head in the world, and would not therefore have any effect whatsoever on an aircraft's take-off capabilities. That's why it's a joke (see point 1). 3. Dinosaurs had enormous heads largely because they had enormous brains. But I've never seen a dinosaur on Mastermind.

I would suggest that no.3 may be questionable.
Dinosaurs were (apparently ) alive a long time ago. Long enough for any brain tissue to have decomposed before humans discovered the remains. (If you disregard the fact that dinosaurs are just a big marketing scam and never existed anyway)
The assumption that a large head means a large brain is just that - assumption.

Neither am I, but I didn't find it funny (and you have met me - twice - so I would have thought you would have noticed the absence of any Scottish accent). To me it just stupid and an insult. But then coming from Martin this is not too surprising, he is not renowned for being a source of amusing jokes.

Well if egos were measured by the kilo I doubt even a bloody Chinook would get yours airborne. (Unlike your sense of humour which a gnat would get off the ground).

So your post is just another pointless insult. You are clearly frutrated and lonely. I suggest you should masterbate more often. It will help keep your hands busy and off the keyboard.

Forgive me, perhaps it's just my early onset dementia kicking in but I was sure I've seen a photo of you on Thunderboat wearing a tartan skirt?
