I just figured that saying that on the internet was a bit crude and disrepectful if it was true.

Bennet, there is no reason to be rude to me just because I'm younger.

Edit: I accidently used HTML codes.

I'm not a designer, I am just fixing/building PC's, laptops and servers for a computer company.

How did I get the job? Blag it

Beats doing a paper round.

you know, for someone trying to play the "i don't have to be old to be mature" angle, i find it pretty funny you're throwing the age card at bennett as your main defense against the very same barely existant accusation.

the irony is just overwhelming.

Are you kidding? I don't have a defence, I suck at arguing on the internet. That's why there is no point for me to do it.

Also, I never said I was mature. You can use the search button, you can control + F, but you aren't going to find anything.

Animus, you just need to learn when to not push the submit button. You don't always have to say something--because it seems at most times, you don't know what your saying.


Great one of so much knowledge, please explain to some of us why you feel you have a right to that? If you had not noticed, I'm more or less keeping my comments right in subject form to your oringal comment of "HOW CRUDE." At least I had enough maturity to not hold down the shift key while typing.

Also, if you were going to go through all your posts and edit them--why do you still post comments relating to "I'm right!"?
Why can't you leave me alone? I know you're better than me. What else do you want?

I'm not sure why you felt the need to pursue this bennet? The guy wasn't rude or didn't even insult you...rather than playing the age card, try acting it.

All those posts were edited. I do understand I was a little abrupt with him--all through him commenting on me without any reasoning was rather out of place.

All one of my posts were edited. Minus the accidental HTML codes. the edit was so I could just avoid conflict because there is no point arguing with someone smarter and older than I.

I ran internship at the company for 5 months, worked myself up towards head of the design and HTML (validation) department. Still working there right now.
