jugglers have more talent than most people anywhere!
crazy! absoloute lunacy! i dont like you now!

That's to her credit.

How you can claim that "jugglers have more talent than most people" is beyond me. There are lots of different types of talent.

Had you claimed that "jugglers have far more juggling talent than most people", I could have understood your reasoning, but you would still have been wrong. This is because you can be extremely talented at something without even trying it; I could be an very talented tiddly winks player, but I guess I'll never know unless I try. Conversely, you can have bugger all talent for something, but still do reasonably well at it if you try hard. Any coach will tell you this.

Mark have you ever had the thoughts that maybe people on here don't want to hear about your juggling?
Just a thought.

OK, if you replace the word "talent" with the word "skill" in your original post, you're still wrong. There are countless different types of skill, of which juggling is just one. You cannot say that one is "more skilled" than the other.

I like juggling. But then again I also like the idea of taking over the world with an army of indestructable killer robots and I've kept quiet about that!

Apart from here of course!

Well I could call them indestructible "crowd control" or "pacifier" robots but I call a spade a spade and I used to live in Brixton so that's not racist!

How else am I to take control and crush any attempt at rebellion or insurrection?

"Baw control".

Yes but I'd need an army of indestructible killer robots (i would settle for huge killer insects as well though) to help enforce it...who's gonna drag people to baw removal chamber 101?

Wasn't that a Bryan Ferry song?
