Ad Lib Posted April 8, 2014 Share Posted April 8, 2014 I know you put an awful lot of time into that, but Next time, don't use "parses". Thanks. You *did* ask what specifically I objected to. So I told you. Not my fault. The word parses is entirely appropriate to this situation. He gave structure and exposure to a number of false and preposterous claims by allowing someone else to argue them on his web-space and support those claims with ludicrous lies and defective evidence. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ad Lib Posted April 8, 2014 Share Posted April 8, 2014 Don't you feel "parses" was a tad pretentious though? No. I consider using a varied vocabulary to be an integral part of not being an idiot. Translation: He posted something written by somebody else on his blog. Parses being a much more concise way of saying the same thing. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ayrmad Posted April 8, 2014 Share Posted April 8, 2014 A varied vocabulary is one thing however you are doing it to appear superior and every one of us can see straight through it. Purposive obfuscating utilising unconventional verbiage is mere vanity posing as faux intellectualism. Clear communication is everything. George Galloway thread for this pish. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

git-intae-thum Posted April 8, 2014 Share Posted April 8, 2014 Apologies for thinking that people like you are able to grasp a simple word like "parse". take away the "p" and I think more people would get what you are all about. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When you should really apologise for pretending the word is in any way common, frankly. And for being pompous and pretentious while you're at it. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Confidemus Posted April 9, 2014 Share Posted April 9, 2014 Yes is a best priced 3/1 according to Oddschecker. As short as 5/2 in places. Well those odds have shortened quite a bit. Pleasing. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ayrmad Posted April 9, 2014 Share Posted April 9, 2014 Yes is a best priced 3/1 according to Oddschecker. As short as 5/2 in places. I did read somewhere that all the bookies are receiving lots of bets on YES, still a bit to go but it will be interesting when YES reach 6/4 or so. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If I limited the vocabulary I used to communicate on here to the words that you consider "in any way common" passive onlookers would think I read at the level of an 8 year old child. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
