    It's just one of Swords' over elaborate and overly contrived jokes. He's much funnier (and more offensive) when he's spontaneous. A gratuitously offensive post of his regarding homosexuality and Brighton was deleted, now he thinks he's Lenny Bruce.

    Swords will soon realise that nobody on here gives a f••k whether he or any of the rest of us post or disappears off this board. No one person is bigger than the board.

    Never Cut The Nose To Spite The Face

    please log in to view this image


    "Cutting off the nose to spite the face" is an expression used to describe a needlessly self-destructive over-reaction to a problem: "Don't cut off your nose to spite your face" is a warning against acting out of pique, or against pursuing revenge in a way that would damage oneself more than the object of one's anger.
    The phrase is known to have been used in the 12th century. It may be associated with the numerous legends of pious women disfiguring themselves in order to protect their virginity. These cases include Saint Eusebia, Saint Ebba, Saint Oda of Hainault and Saint Margaret of Hungary.

    The most famous[citation needed] of these cases was that of Aebbe the Younger, the Mother Superior of the monastery of Coldingham. In 867 AD, Viking pirates from Zealand and Uppsala landed in Scotland. When news of the raid reached Saint Ebba, she gathered her nuns together and urged them to disfigure themselves, so that they might be unappealing to the Vikings. In this way, they hoped to protect their chastity. She demonstrated this by cutting off her nose and upper lip, and the nuns proceeded to do the same. The Viking raiders were so disgusted that they burned the entire building to the ground.

    The expression has since become a blanket term for (often unwise) self-destructive actions motivated purely by anger or desire for revenge. For example, if a man was angered by his wife, he might burn down their house to punish her; however, burning down her house would also mean burning down his, along with all their combustible personal possessions.

    In the 1796 edition of Grose's Classical Dictionary of the Vulgar Tongue, "He cut off his nose to be revenged of his face." is defined as "one who, to be revenged on his neighbour, has materially injured himself." The word "spite" is used in the sense of revenge and "face" is used in the sense of honor.

    Can we just close this thread so as not to pander to his over inflated ego ??
    I actually love the fella when he is on form, but all this bollox he spouts, outting the Mods for being so called 'dictators' and then doing yet another 'boycott'...thus causing yet another Swords thread...is starting to right get on my f*****g nerves.

    Apologies but on my 3rd 16 hour shift and getting tired and ratty :(
