how do you treat people?

[bloop2]

Yeah.. I don't think your british sense of humor travels all the way down to canada :O

 

[slimjim]

People sometimes don't get my silly sense of humour, SlimJim understands it, but never sure if my British irony travels well across the Atlantic

I certainly do.............it certainly doesn't

I can only respond with one of my favs:



"I didn't get where I am today selling ice creams tasting of bookends, pumice stone, and West Germany"

He's actually a more serious character in the book. A lot was transferred to the series (the original, not that crap remake!) and you see Leonard Rossiter as you're reading it, but he's far more of a tragic character in the novel. It's sometimes interesting to compare the movie/TV versions against the books, but I don't normally watch something I've read because books are always so much better.

In this case I was given the book long after the TV show, and had it on my shelf for years before I decided to read it. Well worth it if you can get hold of it.

It's really about a man going through a mid-life crisis. There are things about him and his attitude that I can associate with, like Victor Meldrew, that's what probably made him so popular.

The sad thing is, the story hasn't dated at all!! In fact it's probably more relevant today than in the 1970s!

 

[Thor]

hmmm, I wonder if someone has the series on dvd, i cant find it here, and on Internet its all European format, so it wont play in my dvd player

I liked him cleaning up pig shit!! hehehehe

I try to be a calm and reasonable opinion,but I end up being patronising.

 

[Otage]

I treat people with respect and equality. And if someones is being a bitch then he can be a bitch. I'm not gonna go down on their level. Bad behaviour tells more about them and that's enough info i need in those cases.

I thought this was thread about Reginald Perrin ) )

Thats ideally how i'd like to be like!

But in reality i treat others the way i would like to be treated. Which is similar but being that im a bit quirky it makes certain differences. for example i prefer ppl to be brutally honest with me..so i tend to be brutally honest (not all the time but more times than i should :rofl
