Hey

I've just found this really funny new site:

http://www.dubbs-attacks.co.uk

It's got some really good stuff on. I think we need things like this on the web, what do you think?

Cheers.

Okay first off - you are the one who said that it makes things cheery so I'm not actually the moron who stated that. again, toss pot.

The site is an angry / witty domain. it makes comments about things - as those things annoy Dubbs off. which makes him angry - obviously. but a way to get out anger in his way must be making witty comments. we all cant be dull and boring with our anger by 'smashing light bulbs and spilling drink'

well, we all hate chavs - they are a bunch of 'fuckwitts' especially blazin squad - now if you dont think that then you have something seriously wrong with you. because they are the biggest bunch of idiots that ever crawled the planet - bar One True Voice.

If you actually read the website you should have picked up on this.

Of course an exclamation mark isn't to make things cheery, moron, but under the right circumstances it has that effect. Having loads of short phrases punctuated by exclamation marks in a paragraph gives it an upbeat, cheery quality, which is exactly the opposite of what that site was aiming for.

None of the articles seem to express any real anger, because they all seem like jokes. It detracts from the objective of the site, and the fact that the idiot can't shut up about how 'angry' he is doesn't help either.

This is the basic structure of the text on the site:

"Oh, I'm so angry! I'm so angry I could...smash things!!
I hate Blazin' Squad! They make me angry, they do, they do, they do.
I can't go through a day without being angry because I'm so angry about everything! Chavs are bad - they make me angry! Did I mention that I'm angry? Well, I am! Really, really angry!"

Like I said, crap.

I said it emphasises the angry-ness... b

but that last post was an answer to your post, as it obviously doesnt say that when you look up exlamation mark

' Exlamation Mark :
To make things seem non-angry. '

- but you were saying that an exlamation mark makes it cheery. and what i put was in answer to that. Toss pot.

pointing out that an exlamation mark is not to make things cheery.

Maddox probably wasnt the first person in the world to be witty - he's probably one of the more popular ones... yes! but everyone has a right to put what they want to on their own website.

He probably was angry then - he used an exlamation mark..! that makes it not angry, yes because thats what exlamation marks do! if you look up the meaning it states..

Exlamation Mark :
To make things seem non-angry.

No it doesn't. It gives the sentence an overtly cheery tone.
I can just imagine that dipshit grinning and going "I'm annoyed right now!!" and then letting out some goofy laugh. The only thing that could make his 'anger' seem more false would be if he stuck "lol" onto the end of the sentence.

It's just a poor Maddox ripoff.

Absolutely rubbish.
What kind of angry person makes angry comments in such a cheery way?
Angry people don't use exclamation marks.

Crap.
