That was pretty funny (pathetic?) when \*\*finn \*\*said he was owed an apology. The only excuse I’ll give him is that he seems to be a non-English speaker. If he actually is a native speaker, then he’s an even bigger ass than he appears. ---

Yeah that was pretty bizarre. I just hope he accepts my appology so things aren’t weird between us. ---

No, no, no. To be _properly_ pompous, you need a name like: Lady Delicia Angelica Harmonia Sirenia Millicent Felicity Fifi Winterbottom de Marquis-Laponte-Chatel IIIVXI. You may thank me now. ---

If he actually is a native speaker, then he’s an even bigger ass than he appears. He says he’s from Belfast living in Sligo so he’s an English speaker. If he’s says English is not his first language he’s talking about the fact that Irish(Gaelic, you may call it) is the official first language of Ireland. ---
