Sadly they never do, if you remain silent they think you agree with them.

That is so completely true.

The vocal minority often mistake the silence of the majority to be support. Usually, nothing could be further from the truth. They usually just dont want to go toe-to-toe with the resident gob-on-a-stick, ...or rather the resident gob-on-a-stick and his six mates.

It isnt a 'scrap' Gary, those happen when people disagree over something serious, usually involve too much drink, and usually end up with one or multiple people spitting blood and teeth onto the pavement. It is just an exchange of views on an internet forum. Anyhoo must go Corrie is on now.

the old English word for lunatic (monaðseocnes) means "month-sickness." :eek:

And the word 'hysteria' comes from the Greek word for the uterus.
However, I suspect these examples tell us more about the misogynistic use of language than any insight into female psychology.

Very powerfull the moon.

I've never looked up about what infuence it has on people, but im sure it cant just be myth. Controls the tides and certain aspects of the weather, and, from what i've read, how plants germinate and grow.

I thought sriritofold would have given us more on this one considering his links to paganism

If you take a plate of live oysters, they open up at the exact time the tide would pass over that part of the land.

I suspect it's because there's folk on here that bite so quickly.

Really?

Now, this idea that that the full moon affects people's moods... ;)

(Sorry. I can't help myself!)

Seriously though, I must apologise for any part I may have had in precipitating this weekend's shenanigans. I spend three days on the allotment, I come back to find all sorts of goings on....

Lunatic in Polish essentially means sleep walker, no "crazy" connocations at all. Where do you think the prefix comes from [Luna]
In teaching kids are always more fractious and noisy when the wind is higher. No idea why but it does seem to hold true.
