Ah, well, there's a very reasonable reason for that obviously confusing term....Originally Posted by The Atheist
Re how I should be addressed, let's not get hung up on this 'Mark' or 'Bastable' thing. Just kick back and refer to me as 'Your Awesomeness'.
A word to the wise 'Your Awsomeness' Soundo will not take kindly to pouring your tea and cleaning Bastable Hall.

Huh? I would never expect that kind of subservience from a woman. That's why God gave us the Scots.A word to the wise 'Your Awsomeness' Soundo will not take kindly to pouring your tea and cleaning Bastable Hall.

My round, Parker. If God particles exist, does that mean he is actually made of matter? That would be so très banal. Next thing he's gonna float down the stock exchange.
Happy Saturday night to all
Damn right.
I bet the shares go through the roof!
Yep, and I understand it perfectly. Doesn't stop it being funny, especially when our similar schools are referred to as "private" despite being completely available to all people, and hence "public" as well.
Careful - we Southern Hemisphereans have a wide range of colloquialisms for English.
You may even find some of your fellow Northern Hemisphereans have a few as well, but you'd best check with jocky.
Go to work, get married, have some kids, pay your taxes, pay your bills, watch your tv, follow fashion, act normal, obey the law and repeat after me: "I am free."

That was a cheap shot Mark. I have spent more than half my life wearing out boots in defence of Great Britain. If you meant to have a go at me personally I can live with that but slagging my countrymen off in general is unworthy goodnight mate .

Thankyou very much
Well the current trend is to add Y onto the end of the name so it should become Marky, Marky boy etc. The only exception is when 'dawg' is added and the Y is dropped to become just Mark Dawg.
What happens to the big, tough guy whose nickname is Dog? Doggy sounds a bit poofy, and Dog Dawg doesn't work...

It was a response to the post about SoM. If you were from Wales, I'd've said Welsh. If you were from France, I'd've said French. If you were from Nigeria, I'd've said Nigerian.
I have nothing against the Scots. And I have nothing for them, either. None of my best friends are Scots; but neither can I think of a Scot I dislike - at least, not for their Scottishness.
So - y'know - let's not fall out over my perceived attitude to Scottish people, because I haven't really got one.
On the other hand, I find your landscapes profoundly and unremittingly depressing. I've never got that 'sweeping grandeur' thing. Scottish vistas always look to me like headaches made geological.
I was in Fochabers last week. I liked it. Rather than adjust my attitude to the whole of Scotland, I've decided to regard Fochabers as an independent village state, and therefore not Scotland at all.

Aye, well at least admit you like our whisky. Cheers!

Then Big is added in front of the name. Hence Big Dante. Dantey and Dante Dawg did not work therefore it became Big Dante.
How about Deputy Dawg surely we can all relate to that. I am getting too old for this.Then Big is added in front of the name. Hence Big Dante. Dantey and Dante Dawg did not work therefore it became Big Dante.

You can never be too old for Deputy Dawg

Then there is that endearing Aussie tradition of adding 'o' on the end of a name, like Thomo and Billo. Course it would make Mark sound Mediterranean. but anything is better than Marky.

The gopher in Deputy Dawg has the second best cartoon-character name ever - the first being the crazy inventor in Wacky Racers.
