He's a Mac user. And we call him TM. It stands for something he called himself before he called himself that. -------------------- desperance -- je me souviens arena -- et je me souviens de vous Posts: 2449 | Registered: Monday, October 15 2001 07:00 |

Yeah, and Anglicans and Puritans took to burning marriable women who didn't take husbands. I can understand bad PR against us in Britain, given as how historically the Quakers don't tend to respect authority, but they were pretty forward-thinking. They did what you say they did against a church that sprung from a particularly unpleasant king, deciding that the Pope was being unreasonable by not breaking the rules of the Church to fit him, declaring himself the new Pope. Yeah, maybe they had pretty deranged methods, but they didn't hurt anyone but themselves using them, and they fought for something modern humanity would agree with [reducing of the power and prestige of the aristocracy]. Most Anglicans and Puritans did what they did, using actions from fiery speech to violence, to preserve the status quo. So our spiritual predecessors ranted like madmen against an unjust system. Is that worse than the witch-hunts Puritanism is responsible for, the oft-violent attacks on "enemies of the faith" Anglicans were responsbile for, the Inquisition and the Crusades that Catholicism was responsible for, or the blatant anti-Semitism that most Protestant denominations encouraged? -------------------- desperance -- je me souviens arena -- et je me souviens de vous Posts: 2449 | Registered: Monday, October 15 2001 07:00 |

To be more particular, it literally refers to a rather peculiarity in the first place, and gets worse from there. See, the person in question is necessarily male. His wang is made of glass. He takes a rock or multiple rocks, shatters it, and attacks people with the shards. [Canonically, in the eyes.] And no, I'm not making this up -- we've been using it in that sense for months now. -------------------- desperance -- je me souviens arena -- et je me souviens de vous Posts: 2449 | Registered: Monday, October 15 2001 07:00 |

To believe what she says, her traumatic experiences due to her father selling her into the white slave trade boiled up, causing her husband and dog to leave her and burning off 9/10 of her flesh. And the doctors who took care of her pitied her so much they induced amnesia, and now you're not allowed to bring any of this up. Yeah, gotta love Lady J. -------------------- desperance -- je me souviens arena -- et je me souviens de vous Posts: 2449 | Registered: Monday, October 15 2001 07:00 |

I've been using computers pretty much constantly for a good 10 years now, and I started out on monitors and keyboards designed MUCH less with ergonomic concerns in mind than my current ones :P -------------------- desperance -- je me souviens arena -- et je me souviens de vous Posts: 2449 | Registered: Monday, October 15 2001 07:00 |

It's awful French. I wouldn't even call it French dead, as that would imply it was alive at some point, and I'd rather not contemplate that. -------------------- desperance -- je me souviens arena -- et je me souviens de vous Posts: 2449 | Registered: Monday, October 15 2001 07:00 |

I had RSI problems when I was younger, but I don't any more. I think my wrists have shifted somehow to adapt to the conditions I'm constantly putting them under. That would make the most sense, anyway, as I'm a terrifying mutant who can spend 18+ hours a day on the computer and still have 20/20 vision and not suffer from carpal tunnel syndrome. -------------------- desperance -- je me souviens arena -- et je me souviens de vous Posts: 2449 | Registered: Monday, October 15 2001 07:00 |

Really, I like the English system. If expressing it requires three words or less, you could compound it if you like. If not, don't bother. Everyone gets things done a lot easier that way. And then you have the French and, um, most languages, which don't have compound words at all. Against these infidels, we and the Germans are comrades in arms, and I suppose they can put up with our insane lack of structure and we can put up with their line-filling words for the sake of solidiarity in the face of a common threat. -------------------- desperance -- je me souviens arena -- et je me souviens de vous Posts: 2449 | Registered: Monday, October 15 2001 07:00 |
