Thank you Kifeas, very polite of you, spoken like a true barbarian ancestor of a Spartan who happened to learn Greek.

Bananiot, Happy Easter by the way!

Have you ever thought how you could possibly surface as a truly civilised person, if I, the barbarian, didn’t exist so that we can be compared? In other words, your civility depends solely on my barbarian existence, which serves as the measure to determine your superiority.

Good answer! Only, allow me to question the originality of the thought; I believe an Alexandrian Greek beat you to it by some decades.

Thanks for the Easter wish. You too.

Whatever the originality of the though, you must notice that I have no fear resorting to self sarcasm /cynicism, unlike your reaction to my earlier sarcastic humour, which in its turn was an answer to your equaly sarcastic humour relating to the pseudo restaurant and the pseudo meal. Thanks for the wishes too and I hope I didn’t confuse you!

Well, when you are called ignorant and branded a traitor etc, resorting to sarcasm /cynicism, is perhaps the best way to confront people. However, I do believe that the out of all proportions use of the prefix "pseudo" offers plenty of inspiration for joke making and leg pulling. Its like our President's "voting" that took place in the north. He should have said pseudo elections but then he would get another sarcastic remark from all level headed people in Cyprus. Mind you "voting" instead of elections does offer much food for thought but acording to Bambiniotis, there is no difference between voting and elections. Just another example of the tyranny of words that makes mockery of common sense.
