im not blowing me own trumpet or owt but the phrase dismissed was invented by me
and I for one am proud that a poster as talented as coat hanger as deemed to use it,@rogue trader wrote:

and I for one am proud that a poster as talented as coat hanger as deemed to use it,I hate to be the one to tell you these things, but
1) ‘Dismissed’ is a word, not a phrase
2) It’s been around since the early 15th century – surely you’re not that old to have ‘invented’ it?!. :wink:
For info, it comes from the Latin ‘dismissus’ which itself means “insult wife” (sshh! – somebody might believe it!)
And, given you have no way whatsoever to make the ‘dismissal’ stick, I still think it is to a text-based, open format, what an ejector seat is to a helicopter :)

This is the reaction and similar Coaty gives when he/she gets a positive post…..when its a negative reaction the sheman gets defensive and touchy…
I would conclude….all of this bothers sheman very much…..and the stories maybe for personal pleasure….which hits it on the head
I’m not happy when coathanger uses a story to personally attack one person here in the way it was done. It’s the first time coathanger has done it to my knowledge. You notice how the usual round of ‘laughed till I cried’ accolades has been missing this time which, as Ms K notes, seems to be the reason for his/her touchiness.
I don’t have time for Anita, but he hasn’t defended himself here. The thing to do if he’s being obnoxious is to confront him in the chat where he can defend himself.
ps Mr Cat, I was using your name tongue-in-cheek, but I’ve removed it from the other story. I have no wish to indicate that you’re ‘taking sides’ – don’t worry.

Thanks Scep, but it wasn’t your comment that prompted my post – you could have left it in for me. Rest assured, I’ll overcome my debilitating shyness and speak up if I feel I’m being misrepresented :P
Actually Princess, the =D> :D/ was referring to this bit of cosy’s post
”the thing that strikes me is you are all assuming coat is a reg,he/she doesn’t necessarily has to be
why cant people just observe? ”I am sorry. I should have been more specific but Scep tells me off for disecting posts :)
And Scep I’d like to remind you of part of my 1st reply to you on page 1 :
”So far I’ve had 17 private messengers agreeing with my perceptions from regular chatters, who wish to remain nameless as they know exactly how vile our subject can be.”
Its 21 now actually but who’s counting .
Kenty, the only person who appears to be a tad touchy is you my dear.
♫ let it go….. let it go…..♫
Ive no idea who coathanger is but i love his/her posts. they are enjoyable and bring a smile to my face. i dont frequent chat anymore but i like catching up via theses threads, nothing changes i suppose, all i wish to say is keep it going coathanger . i would however ask just one request, use your superb repoitoire on the whole of jc rather than as it seems vicitimise just one, although it was spot on lol
