pie-eater 207 Posted April 3, 2011 Share Posted April 3, 2011 As things stand, it's Go Native's turn to post the next witty comeback. Must admit, I just don't get it. Although, to clarify, I must admit that I'm not quite sure what it is that I don't get, and I must also admit that I'm not sure what other people don't get and certainly don't know why they don't get those things. So I just don't get any of it, I must admit. It's all ever so confusing, even if I have made over 4000 generally top-notch posts. Link to post Share on other sites
