Latinx: Yes or No?

[NiftyNiblick]

Languages evolve....which is why most electronic language setups include both American English and British.

We're allowing a "dumbing down" of English that I personally find offensive enough to reist.
My personal risitence won't stop it, pehaps, but it keeps me righteous and pure which is far more important.

The only way to achieve excellence is the relentless pursuit of unattainable perfection.

Damn, something you and I agree on!

You are using the same argument a British aristocrat used against the Yanks perverting his mother tongue.

I didn't mean to plagiarize, Oom.

If I knew who the gentleman or lady was, I'd properly credit him/her.

I'm nothing if not fucking respectful.

...and conservative.

...and conservative.

You're actually right, Oom.
I'm socially conservative and in some ways outright reactionary.
I speak and dress conservatively.
I play fucking golf, for Christ's sake.

But politically, particularly on economic issues, I'm quite clearly a democratic socialist as I'm sure you can see.

I'm the opposite; fiscally conservative and socially liberal.

Yup. I've noticed. Neither of us is a stereotype.

[Matt Dillon]

We have more definitions than we need in this world.

A proper Bostonian recognizes only two kinds of people.

There are those who agree with us on virtually everything, Quote Thanks Groans Blog this Post

and there are those whom we refer to---and I do admit this is unfortunate--
as "fuckin' retahds."


I love the new T-shirt my daughter bought me.

SURROUNDED BY STUNADS is emblazoned on the front.

"Stunad" is Italian-American slang for "stonato."

"Stonato" literally means "out of tune,"
but it's used that way about as often as "gay" is used to mean "merry.'

It's mostly used to mean, in Bostonese, "fuckin' retahd."

The great thing about the T-shirt is that

I can appropriaately wear it virtually anywhere.

Go pahk the cah, ya fukkin retodd.

Fiscally conservative and socially liberal is a Libertarian stereotype.

OTOH, modern politics have kept the names of parties while the parties themselves have changed into something far different than 50 years ago.

Maybe.

What I know is that I'm a hard core lefty whose idea of "freedom" is living well,
not cosplaying as the ruggedly independent Marlboro Man.

If we're not polar opposites, we come fairly close, right?

Why bother me with it? It's your right to live well. It's not your right to live well by harming others.

Am I bothering you, Oom?
Sorry, and fuck you.
