It seems to be Brit slang with a number of possible meanings, none of them complimentary. SQ

Well rabies is not a big problem around here, so there is little risk there. Then factor in the probability of being attacked by a coyote is minimal and I would still rather encounter a coyote than a loose dog.

I post a reference to a woman called Mitchell, quoting the opening lines of her famous song called Coyote. And you miss the ref by a country mile. To be fair, you're not the only one, although Clarke says the song isn't widely known in Leftpondia[1]. And she's even Canadian. But you see a chance to snipe. Even *after* it's been explained. And then get all snarly when parody, which you seem fond of, is nicely demonstrated. What a nasty inadequate little mammal you can be. I know it's not your default state, though. [1] More a case of "I've not heard of it", I fear. -- BMW K1100LT Ducati 750SS Honda CB400F Triumph Street Triple Suzuki TS250ER (currently Beaving) Damn, back to five bikes!

The only reason I can see that one would not be armed is that there is no danger. Is there absolutely no danger of predator attack in the area? No viscious dogs? No criminals?

Actually all I did was point out you are an ankle biter, after you were nipping at the ankles of the OP. It was an honest and accurate assessment. You responded with some kind of a disjointed unrelated story, to which I replied "What and utter Tosspot" or something like that. You seem to have assumed I was talking about you. Strange you would jump to that conclusion. |
