Spindrift, along with all the other stupid things you say, your
quoting style is very crap and extremely misleading. Don't write "Hi
it was me" when it wasn't. You don't say that you're quoting
someone anywhere in the entire message.

It would be trivially easy for you to write "I've found this on the
web, he says: "

You did, albeit by copy&paste. It wasn't at all clear that you were
quoting someone else from somewhere else unless we followed the link.

You posted "hi guys. it was me".

I agree you probably did not commit it to a piece of velum, paper,
cardboard, blackboard, slate or other recipient medium using a quill,
pen, pencil, crayon, chalk or other hand-held writing implement, but I
had thought even you weren't such an arse as to try and use that as a
get-out.

If you are merely quoting someone, say what you are doing.
It's not difficult.

I thought'd I made it clear, sorry.

He's one lucky camper, a lorry beind you changes lanes, rear ends you
and the grill actually lifts you in the air before dropping you and
running you over.

I'd buy a lottery ticket if I was that cyclist.
