Ha, I remember him including "sniffing" (solely, without explanation) in a list of ways to sexually gratify someone, as if it were totally normal.

It is, actually...

Oh dear, recognizing facts about one's self that other people do not need to know about is certainly important. 

And then there is that. This is certainly info that should only be available on a 'need to know' basis.   :D

The morons who run" talk classical," have managed to do worse in just one week-end than you have in what seems like many years of posting too much. That should make you feel better about yourself. Much better.

In fact, if only you'd learn to live peacefully with the fact that not everyone will ever agree with you on any subject, you'll be just fine.

That's probably true. My time spent on TC wasn't a highlight for me. Yes, I need to learn to how to be more accepting of other opinions. Good point. My apologizes to you if I had angered or belittled you in the past.

I guess those who have to ask if they're a troll aren't really a troll. If anything, it was a desperate cry for attention on my part. ;) I wasn't on my medication when I posted that anyway.  :P

You see this is the difference between me and alot of other people on forums, I can laugh at myself and do it quite often even in real life. Life's too short to take oneself so seriously all the time.

P.S. Yes, I do post a lot, but when you don't have a life, like myself, it sure helps things go by a bit quicker. It's either this forum or check myself into a mental institution, so I'll definitely keep posting here. :D

Sometimes, it seems, there really isn't a difference ...     ;)

That's odd, I assumed you were posting from a mental institution.  (Remember what you wrote above about being able to laugh at yourslef.)

That's true, often we are so busy trying to convince other people of the "rightness" of our own opinions, that we don't properly listen to what they're saying to us. It becomes more of a rant than a proper dialogue...

I'd never heard of Talk Classical until I saw this post. Heresy though it may be to discuss a rival site, is it any good? Or at all useful? Or at least vaguely entertaining? I only stumbled across GMG after PaulB mentioned it on the Gramophone forum, and whatever my disagreements with him were (forget now; probably something to do with religion and/or Ligeti), I'm grateful to him for that. Even if my productivity at work has taken a bit of a nose dive.

I don't think it is.

I mean, I don't think it's heresy. No site can rival GMG

I read and post at both GMG and Talk Classical.  I enjoy my time at both forums and find both "good", informative, and entertaining.  It's possible to do so, no matter how hard it may be for you to imagine.

It's true that a lot of us miss you there, Toucan.

Lies.  Where else did Henning's "Happy Meal Concerto"  and "Big Mac Suite" come from? Two of the most famous works in the Henning Repertoire?  We see through your deception, it's quite transparent.
