Hi,

A comment by Medway Handyman on another thread has got me thinking
about technical jargon.

In our company we are mostly engineers/tecchies of one sort or
another. And you know how it is.....tecchies have this constant game
of trumps going all the time.


Obviously they have no life!

Who has the best mobile? Fastest internet connection? Most
powerful PC? best Home Cinema? Most diagonal screen inches? The
list goes on for ever.


I feel sorry for people like that, they are often insecure or ill. I
bet most are not married or even have a long term male partner.


Blimey, it's Dr Ruth with a dash of homophobia.
