  1. got you a nice warm bed in the ESME unit, the no. 74 bus goes right through the ward


  2. no unless they actually know you.

  3. It's not!

    You know what, it is disgusting the way the elderly insane are treated in this country!

  4. No you should not be offended, its just a word and if they meant it in a nice way whats the problem.

    Too many people jump on the PC wagon these days and they all need kicking off !

  5. Don't worry about it Dot I have been called a lot worse than that here on Yahoo.

  6. On answers that is mild.  Don't be offended just make sure you got their name and get your own back.  Remember this is not serious.

  7. i can think of much worse things to be called... :) Ignore it.

  8. yes, it's fine. But me, I'm normal.

  9. Nah. They're mental too.

  10. Don't worry about it Dot, you are still ever the s*x-machine you always were anyway

  11. You will find over time some mental geniuses respond to question they don't like with personal attacks. It would have been better to offer an answer that counters point you made, and stimulates thought. Believe you know if you should be offended.

  12. If you think it's unacceptable to be called 'mental', then it is unacceptable, and therefore you should be offended!

  13. unless you are mental completely ignore it and don't let it bother you .  i work in a large retail outlet and you get all sorts of verbal abuse most days, most of these riff-raff are mental  i treat them with contempt

  14. If you feel it was a bit offensive then there must a reason behind why you feel offended. Therefore you can be offended, even if only a little.

  15. Yes because 'said in a nice way' its actually a condescending put down.

  16. No just get even.

  17. I can think of worse things to be called. Better to be mental than boring, lol!

  18. you got someones goat, be happy

  19. Don't sweat the small stuff, hunny

  20. Its unacceptable to call anybody mental on this forum, even if it was meant as a joke.

  21. I'd be pleased someone was talking to me at all  :)
