Looks llike Piers is on a roll.
Maybe trying to elevate his own credibility as far as being a world class journalist. Now he's trouncing the rumor mills and fake news maggots that will print about anything to make a cheap buck through tabloid 'shock and awe' tactics.

Sorry Johnny. I in no way resemble your bowl of turds.

They only remain in a historical context. The fact that you like to show off using "dead" words doesn't make them correct usage. |

How long have you had this superiority complex, and does it contribute to your overall happiness? I'd guess not. |

Your claim that I was trying to insult anyone by use of the word "navee" is just more of your badly educated nonsense. The context of the use of the word says it all. You were trying to insult veterans. Your disdain of the people who serve is very clear from what you say here. You enjoy the freedom the military has given you but you feel no obligation to participate or even to recognize their sacrifice. It is just a joke to you. |
