Given that we have this little fellow :wanker in the smilie options I assume it is reasonable to use it ? ?

no no no dont dare remove it I intended to use it very shortly
The question is is it reasonable to use it...............I certainly think it is but a consensus would be excellent

Depends in the context for me but if you go about dishing it you have to be prepared to recieve it which im sure your more than ready for Cargo, i dare say a smilie like that is better than writing it....

Often use it when referring to my own 'tosser' moments. Think I'd have to be pushed to inflict it on someone else but I'd say, yes, in principle depending on just exactly what sort of bollox someone came out with it could be acceptable.

why shouldn't it be used? and i don't say that because the symbol represents one of my favourite hobbies...
Ok, there is a political climate (especially at home in Norn Ireland) that people get offended by the truth so in order to spare their feelings, government etc. re-word or manipulate facts in order to sound better or to suit a particular need. Why not create an envirnoment whereby adults can express a free opinion based on experience or whatever we want to call it that we all have?
The important thing, to me anyway, is say what you think and if people get just a little emotional and perhaps shed a tear over a particular view then raise this concern with someone who cares, perhaps a social worker or the like?
Lets have a bit of craic, talk about bikes and abuse each other in a jovial manner, not taking things personally.
Ive an idea for a thread, the 'take the piss out of each other and air any grievances without fear of repercussions'. if youre sensitive dont post or read, or if easily offended dont post or read?
Any of the mods, maybe we could have a cuddle smilie for anyone who needs it??
If this goes against me I'm selling my story to News of the World although they probably already know about it as im posting from my iphone.
