northernscum Posted January 3, 2016 Share Posted January 3, 2016 You should never forget that he is BBC trained. It can't be easy to get that level of indoctrination out of your system. He doesn't come across, to me anyway, as an "out of order comment" sort of guy.What did he say? It was months and months ago so I can't really remember what it was all about. I just remember him tweeting something and me thinking 'Nah mate, you are just being a dick now' so I told him that I thought he was being out of order, and that was it, instant blocking! No attempt to back up the point. If there is any way for me to unearth the exchange, I will post it up! I find that with twitter though, you get some thin skinned 'celebs, politicians or journos who will just go on a massive blocking spree as a way of avoiding having to explain some ill thought out tweets, each to their own I suppose!

To be fair, you were abusive. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
northernscum Posted January 3, 2016 Share Posted January 3, 2016 To be fair, you were abusive. Aye, maybe. Still pretty tame by twitter standards though! If I took the cream puff every time someone called me a clown, or similar, I would be in constant turmoil! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Aye, that telt him. Maybe he just doesn't want folk hanging around him who don't have a sense of humour? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

thewolf_1980 Posted March 13, 2016 Share Posted March 13, 2016 Thought it was the boy from the Beechgrove Garden. Thought he was deid. Boy, do I regret opening this thread now that I've experienced the same political shite from the same individuals posting the same rhetoric in response to the same people posting the same rhetoric to the same people.
