I'll have a look tomorrow for you.

If I find one that I consider stupid, I'll even consider an essay explaining why I think its stupid.
However if you have a hissy fit, I won't come out to play again.

Just to warm you up though, some of your comments about degrees and brexit voting were in my opinion pretty stupid, along with arrogant etc.
You'll disagree of course, possibly because you've got a degree, but its an opinion so don't get too butt hurt about it you precious little soul.

Maybe they were arrogant, by taking a stupid interpretation of them I can certainly understand why someone would consider them arrogant. But they weren't. Not really. Probability theory isn't arrogant. All I did was apply it to two groups of people. One who definitely had certain skills and one who might have had those skills and then determine which of the two were most likely to use those skills. If you think this is arrogance then you're an idiot. I'm choosing to instead believe you simple didn't read what I said carefully enough to know that what I said wasn't controversial. Feel free to change my mind about that though. I like it when people change getting my mind.

While you're providing an example of some things I've said w hi ice are stupid, if you could also give an example of a hiss fit that would be great.

I know there are people on here who're clearly above that sort of thing, but some of us are greedy.
Right, but if your employer found out you were ripping them off they'd have a problem with it, right?
Well the taxpayers are Trump's employer.

Did you hold this same opinion during the expenses scandals over here?

Its the exact opposite of what he ran on.
He was going to save the USA a fortune, and he would be too busy to golf.
Is it OK that he lies more than he breathes?
Is that OK, taking advantage of peoples trust?

What have I said that's wrong?

Christ that's bizarre even for some of the things you post.
