Wasting time

Feel free to talk about anything that you want.

Yes, I agree, but not tens of hours, like you do, repeating the same stupid things over and over again, especially as they are not even relevant to the OP, except you wanted to turn it into a political issue.

I think it should have been titled "wasting time, wasting time". I realise what you are saying but are you not guilty of doing the same thing, just in the next cafe. :lol:

Anyway, carry on....Just thought I would point that out.

Come on dear Devil, let him express him self...he is not moody today and he actually wrote something new :lol: :lol: :lol: just kidding...sometimes having a coffee in a coffee shop with friends is like having a conversation with Zan...you repeat things just to talk with him... :oops: :oops: :oops:


Good morning to all of you my dear gentlemen and ladies!

People learn by repetition. I am performing a service. Some people are harder to get through to than others so hard work is needed. Tell me Devil, have you got the message yet?

Other than what K himself wrote to describe his trip, perhaps 8 posts, at least 600 have been useless bickering. Let's say that each took 10 minutes, on an average, to read and respond. That's 100 hours. Let's say that each view took a very conservative minute to read what was new. That's another 200 hours. So, 300 hours were wasted by a handful of people. That is 37½ working man-days.

Conclusion: some people have time on their hands and don't know what to do with it.! :)


Devil, it is just like a Swiss, to give an accurate time frame.!!

I like the 1/2 day thing, at the end of the 37 1/2 days. Most Cypriots would have rounded the numbers to say, 40 days. It reminded me, when the lady at the Nicosia's Visitors Information Office made 3 large circles on my city map, and said, " the places you want, are in those circles". :lol: :lol: :lol:

I agree with you, had Zan and VP just accepted everything I wrote being the truth, we could have saved 30 working days of postings, since at the end of the day, they were not able to disprove anything that I wrote in the "Kikapu's time in Cyprus".

How much time did you spend, working all this out BTW. :lol: :lol:

How accurately can you have predicted that we would have taken that fictitious and biased story to be true? :roll: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol:

You and VP spent "30 days" of pissing and moaning to disprove the report, but at the end, both of you only proved to be fools, since both of you, could not disprove anything that I wrote. If you both were smart and open minded as being "True Cypriots", the whole episode would have ended much sooner.
