Most Aussies are aware Chopper is a pathological liar,and take anything he says with a large grain of salt.

It should be noted that Chopper has the facile charm often found in psychopaths, along with a marked amorality and ruthless criminality.

One of my most hated clichés is one commonly given to children by their parents when the children are asking to do something: "If your friends jumped off a cliff, would you jump too?" My favorite response comes from a dialog between a young Dilbert and his mother in Scott Adams' comic strip "Dilbert":

Stealing that for one of my Facebook pages.

I will guarantee, here and now - a prophecy, if that running 'joke' hasn't slowed to a dead stop by now - anyway, I will promise you that if I were to email Dave Courtney or whichever representative handles his communications and PR and arrange a date and time which suits both parties, come the day when you and he are standing face-to-face, you will shit in your pants.

Go ahead and email him. Tell him I say he looks pansy. I will meet him when I'm 20. We'll pick a nice warm month to fight. Fist-to-fist but he must be a man and not pick up women's trinkets of a knuckleduster. I don't fight with crossdressers. Tell him that. It's not too much to say he should fight with someone who's 20. Surely he doesn't want to go down in history as having fought with a teenager? So let's pick June 2019. He can pick the day. I don't want him to chicken out unless he admits he's a woman who loves to play with trinkets.

My maths may be a little shaky but from the information you just provided that would make you about 13, assuming you turn 20 in June 2019. Perhaps wait until you've grown a pair before splashing out with the bravado. I can't speak for everyone else, but I find it more embarrassing (for you) than impressive.

What I have now is no different from what another male person has - that's human biology for you. I have never concealed my age. The forum requires you to state your precise birthday when you register and I did precisely that. I don't see how it can be embarrassing. Maybe it's embarrassing for Miss Dave Courtney.

Seriously, I'm calling Don King; he's sure to want a piece of this. Can I ask what your fighting credentials are, Greneknight?

No, I wasn't referring to biology but to the phenomenon of human males, particularly young teens, to feel the need to show off in front of their mates. That is why I feel embarrassed for you, since I don't believe you're impressing anyone here and the only thing all this bravado serves to do is to show yourself up. It's a little like wetting yourself in public; acceptable for toddlers and the elderly (hey there, Min!) but humiliating for everyone inbetween.
