Verbal Diarrhoea

Readers will probably recall that "Nursie" was giving Pete Casso
regular injections until a short time ago?
Nursie is apparently very busy right now so I have obtained a large
bottle of " Anti Verbal-Diarrhoea " mixture to overcome Pete's
current outbreak of Verbal-Diarrhoea which has caused him to excrete
large and lengthy verbal essays (without any pictures) in alt.ascii-art.
Anyone can safely administer this medicine by inserting the syringe
needle through the seal in the bottle cap, inverting the bottle and
filling the syringe.
You should advise the patient that he will feel a small prick in his
backside.
Side-effects from overdosing are likely to be short-lived and be
confined to an increase in volume, frequency and rapidity of bowel
movements. Because of this an extra large size personalised bedpan
is being provided and it has a small handle fitted which the
patient, being quite small, can hang onto to avoid falling into the pan.

My pan would be a lot smaller than the one I have provided for you and would certainly be totally inadequate for the resulting flow from your anti verbal-diarrhoea injections. So I have corrected your correction once again and hope that there will be no further confusion between the user of bedpan and the author/provider of the pan. o < -- Safety Rail ________________________ __|__________ ( ) ( ) \ %.

In the meantime I hope things work out OK...so to speak. In due course you may be able to write an illustrated essay on the use of bedpans in the treatment Verbal Diarrhoea and the essay could then be peer-reviewed by members of the medical profession. Cheery,

Well, not quite, Nursie and you used and modified what I created, you should at least have added "The 'steins after Pete Casso." Recently, you used the face of the Cheshire cat without giving credits either and then denied any faux pas. And in a parallel post, you refused to give any credit for the 'steins. You are becoming too frequent for comfort, my friend.

Married to your Mum perhaps? I recall you claiming that you were 13 years old when Martin Atkins was discussing children's ages some time ago now...at the time of the Public Channel thread I think? If however you are indeed happily married you should be careful of showing all this interest in Sarah, appointing yourself as her protector, and posting kinky variations of her "lake"(?) pictures. The world has still far from recovered from the "Bill & Monica" story. We don't want the Internet overloading again with users trying to access alt.ascii-art. So your requests to refrain could well be self-directed. 8-) BTW are you feeling better now after Nursie's injection? Bye,

Here is the chain of events as I see it : Pete Casso makes some cartoons (steins) Colin pays him a compliment by saying his "stein" sub genre is second only to the "silly cows". Pete Casso takes offence at this compliment and says so. Colin explains that the "silly cows" is the description which he remembers of the "cow" pictures. Others back him up. Pete Casso sees an ideal opportunity to be obnoxious and proceeds to create a load of very childish and unfunny cartoons of everyone who tried to point out that Colin was paying him a compliment in the first place. Typical behaviour of a child who knows he is in the wrong but does not want to admit it. __________________________ ,( ) (Hmm! looks like I was wrong!\ .PC / (I know, I'll take the mickey)_____________ ( -) (out of other people so no-one will notice!)

The copyrights of the 'steins remain with me, Pete Casso. Generally speaking, I have no objections people playing with the 'steins, on the contrary I welcome that, because it helps propagating the 'steins. But specifically speaking, I can't tolerate the recent excesses coupled with audacity in denying any copyrights. BTW, providing a pic with initials amounts to copyrighting it, insisting on initials is asserting copyrights, even if people are not aware of these things.

Sheesh! No need to get excited, sarcasm often gets misinterpreted in this medium, that's why I added a straight message. Some months ago, someone stayed here only for a week or so, but in that short time, she changed dots to commas in pics and then changed the initials to her own.

Good, good, you begin to understand the basics of >intellectual property. Pete, you really are a Dinkum Drongo...they always fail to understand anything! The entire contents of your messages, not just your Steins, are copyrighted material so, when anyone replies to any of your posts, it is intellectually prudent to quote as little of your material as possible to confine your complaints to a minimum...if such a thing be possible. Hopefully,

Casso has posted a series of deliberate distortions and misrpresentatons of the text and title of "The Ascii Art FAQ Ten Commandments FAQ" to this newsgroup alt.ascii-art. Mr. Casso has also miscredited the original author Joris Bellenger (b'ger) and replaced Mr. Bellenger's name with my initals "cfbd". To reduce any confusion, especially in new or inexperienced readers of alt.ascii-art newsgroup, about these deliberate FAQ distortions by Mr. Casso the correct version and title of the FAQ is given below: ============================================================================ -------The ASCII ART FAQ Ten Commandments.--------- \\\\`/// / _ _| 1/ Thou shalt read the FAQ.
