[quote=Tripper]Yeah, I was just gonna mention that....and that was a bloodier war than Iraq...[/quote:35644]

Seeing as how I'm not you, when I looked at that I though you mean the Falklands were bloodier then Iraq in general, not for England. I didn't think it would piss you off so much to ask for a little clarification, and I'm not flexing anything I'm just trying to make it clear to myself, you may see that as being anal-retentive I just see it as honest curiosity.

rolleyes:


? What about the length of Fakland conflict? What was my mistake?

The irony is immense.

If it's so insignificant, and nominal to you, why even bother?

Aren't you being slightly hypocritical? You say this a non-issue yet you continue to browbeat me, over a simple misunderstanding.

I can see how Stammer thought the way he did, it was an obvious misunderstanding.

You weren't "asking for clarification." You were flat out telling me I was wrong and turning a thread into an argument by calling out something that was irrelevant.
You were flexing your intellectual muscles by tangenting a thread into an argument over something that could have just been missed had you stayed ontopic instead of just having to show-off your huge buckets of knowledge.

You're mistake was not straight-off-the-cuff understanding what the "Falklands was bloodier than Iraq" statement was in reference to...Had you understood you wouldn't have posted (You obviously did understand, before I had even posted a second time, as you edited the post)...

I'm pointing out for your future reference. I know I'm knit-picking now, but you obviously don't understand your foul and so therefore I must enlighten you.
It WAS a non-issue, and then you made it into an issue, and we are continuing disputing said issue until you either:
a) bail out because you agree it's pointless
or
b) get the idea

Oh, and for the record: Considering the amount of soldiers involved in the falklands, the length of the war, ships that were sunk, etc - The Falklands was a bloodier war.

Edit: In all honesty I wasn't trying to show anything off, and yes now reading back I did 'tell' you, my mistake. I fouled.
