I hear Princess Nicola was not happy with the Scotland France rugby result and is calling for the game to be replayed until she gets the result she wants :-)
I thought Mr. Salmon was 'out' and Nicola had taken over!
Who is in control of Scotland? Two Bosses!

God, grant me the serenity to accept the things I cannot change,
Courage to change the things I can,
And wisdom to know the difference.
Too technical for me now -what or where are these exclamation marks I have used ? F.w.i.w. why should I be angry?. It appears the previous poster has read an article about negative emotional response and is bringing his new found knowledge to bear on these uneducated .orgers.
Oh deary me.....I was just asking a big Q...........Perhaps who is in charge of Scotland?
And I Allopogizze for mentioning it on this board. I suppose this one is for the elite eaters!!
This thread has nothing to do with my thread on dairy products or meat being a major cause of cancer, environmental damage and cruelty.
My point here is about posting threads being in the right section. If you close this thread and start it in the right section then we can start the discussion, otherwise I will continue to complain that this thread is in the wrong section and the subject matter will not discussed properly.

I don't think an exclamation mark indicates 'anger'
https://en.oxforddictionaries.com/pu...ion-mark-point
The main use of the exclamation mark is to end sentences that express:
- an exclamation:
Ow! That hurt!
Hello! How are you?
- direct speech that represents something shouted or spoken very loudly:
‘Look up there!’ she yelled.
- something that amuses the writer:
Included on the list of banned items was 'crochet hooks'!
- An exclamation mark can also be used in brackets after a statement to show that the writer finds it funny or ironic:
She says she’s stopped feeling insecure (!) since she met him.
People tend to use a lot of exclamation marks in informal writing such as emails or text messages, but you should avoid using them in formal writing.
Thanks for swallowing a dictionary. Exclamation marks are used to express anger.
Your first example is pretty self explanatory......Ow! That hurt!, seems pretty angry to me.
Why would Horseman post a thread about the lack of leadership in Scotland if he wasn't angry? It would a normal reaction to have. I'd be angry if I thought Scotland was lacking leadership.

I am not angry...silly person! I don't live in Scotland at the present time, but most of the on-line stories and the reference to a referendum, are being profiled as coming from Salmond. I just wondered if she had a bridle and he was pulling the reins. I shall refrain from commenting more on this thread.

Then you must see anger everywhere. My wife is a nurse. The number of people who exclaim..Ow..that hurt! when she puts in a stitch or gives an injection is huge. The statement does not mean they are angry with her. Please stop seeing anger and hatred all around you, this is a fantastic place to live, filled with (mainly) good caring people.........You could try eating a juicy steak to improve your mood!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
And so speaks one who is always digging for yet more b.s. !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
