I apologize if I crossed that line or even went near it. I don't usually think before I speak (usually I do before I write) so I'm sorry if I insulted you.

So many times have I misread or misinterpreted the words of Coblin and Brendan. You tend to learn a lot from arguing with them. Not that you always agree but you will definitely develop as a person through these 'debates'

Well yes some of the time. Not so much 'owned' but you realise that sometimes you have to have a bit more 'meat on the bone' rather than just the skeleton.

There are some instances however (tend to be social rather than economic) where I feel like I did myself proud =)

Gosh... thanks for saying all that costargh. It makes me feel a bit better. I just before felt that I had done something really horrible. I don't actually remember the last time I intended to insult someone, usually I do it by accident and don't realise I've done something wrong unless the person says so. So sorry, once again for the non-intended insult. I was worrying all that time between my last post and this one.

And thanks for the quote:

Probably an attempt by Brendan to obliterate the remaining credibility that Arts has.

It involves 'sticking a thread' so it remains at the top of the list, even if newer posts are being made in other threads.

lolz. it's hardly like all other areas are innocent in that regard. at ANU there's an extremely popular first-year bio course called "sex, diet, and disease".

i don't think many people enrol in that course to learn about diet and disease...





on the other hand, i've always wanted to go to a gender studies lecture and play "spot the lesbian"  :)

Brendan, when I went to learn more about Nymphs, Sluts and Madonnas, I found I was sexing the self again. Not that I was complaining, but anyway
I don't know how anyone can do that first one without laughing at it every time xD
