And then you whimper and complain about them. Nah, I've got more important things to do.

Why am I not surprised. It's what you guys always end up saying. You make a silly assertion, and then you want me to find supporting data.

It's belie, not bely

It's an alternate spelling. Learn to use the internet.

And hey, we Christians don't hate. I do feel sorry about the genes he inherited and how he is his own worst enemy.

Sure.

You missed the nuance of the present perfect verb I used.

You're becoming boring. And fake.

And there's this:
1871, Catullus, The Poems and Fragments of Catullus.
So he'll quickly devour the way, if only He's no booby; for all a snowy maiden Chide imperious, and her hands around him Both in jealousy clasp'd, refuse departure. 10 She, if only report the truth bely not, Doats, as hardly within her own possession.

Surely there is something more interesting to talk about than the alternate spelling of a word.

Platypuses? or is it platypi? (I betcha 'clete knows!)

[jlisenbe]

According to this, it is either. https://grammarist.com/plurals/platypi-vs-platypuses/

Honestly, I wouldn't have known.

Platypuses? or is it platypi? (I betcha 'clete knows!)

JL wanted something more interesting to talk about so I brought up the platypus (I did a report on them and emus when we studied Australia in 4th grade).

so you studied the emu wars?

[Wondergirl]

so you studied the emu wars?

Nope, we didn't. (That war would have made us kids cry!) The teacher had us learn the geography, the states' names and locations, and another student and I did reports on the animals unique to Australia.

Emu . I know emu's . It is what rich libs in NY and NJ raise when they are looking for a tax break on their expensive land . All they have to do is to convince some tax geek auditor that they are "trying " to turn a hobby into a profitable business.

no you can just watch dump burn

I get to watch the hypocrite climate scientists . From the people who want to shut down all fossil fuel technology: It appears they love air travel especially to warm weather conferences .“You need to have a frequent series of meetings to keep up with the data, to advance our findings, to make sure that they are disseminated across the community,” says Cob

If anything, such conferences are very inefficient for achieving these goals. The internet does it far better. I guess they haven't heard of Zoom or Microsoft Team like the rest of us mere mortals have been forced to use .
But they salve their guilt by buying phony carbon credits to offset their frequent flying .In truth these conferences are political gatherings, aimed at organizing political action and regulation; or for social interaction and schmoozing!

Nothing to do with oz


ok here is something that has something to do with Oz

You ready to pop the cork and celebrate a NEW president?

[tomder55]

congrats to Quid . Trump will appoint a special prosecutor on the way out . Taking bets on how long it takes the Dems to force him out due to corruption and/or incapable of serving as President .

People will complain that Trump is pursuing a court remedy . He won't succeed . Like I said ,the time to make the challenges stick was before the count started .138,000 votes magically appearing all for Quid ? C'MON MAN
