How do you block someone on here?

Is it possible? Just for future reference, of course.

You go to their profile and click on 'add foe'. It's pathetically inadequate though. You still get notificatons when they 'quote' you, and you can still see their comments if someone quotes them. I found it pointless and counterproductive after getting dozens of notifications per day from someone I had on 'ignore' but who insisted on continuously addressing me.

I thought you were doing pretty good to begin with.

Actually, I think you are quite a hardened expert at it.

I would have thought the wig and goggles would do the trick.

Thanks. I thought it might be something like that.

So why does someone come to a Philosophy forum, which is all about the search for knowledge and wisdom, just Play a bit part in Song of the South, yelling please don't throw me in that briar patch?

I am a member of a Philosophy forum!
Oh, yea, how you getting along?
Fine, I blocked everybody!

Hey, I got keys to a Mercedes-Benzes!
Cool. show me your ride!
Oh, I have to buy the rest of the car first. That might take a while.

I once knew this guy who was born stone deaf. He had the most expensive sound system installed in his truck. And, when he wanted to say something, he wrote on his own hand.

If you are having a hard time, a hard day, need time to think, Well, here you go. '

Why don't you pick on someone your own age and sex you nasty old git.
Strange and ironic that someone so obsessed with grammar would have so little grasp of it himself :?

Can you explain 'this' simply?

If no, then how well do you really understand it?

"This" is what has been called an ostensive pointer, like point with the finger.

Ostensive gestures come first
