Were you afraid it would be used "too often" on AFF. j/k

To use the "toro" award is to imply a cuss word. I agree it is wrong.

lol

Anyone who says "Full of bull" is not finishing the sentence, but implies, as everyone is intended to realize, what the bull emits.

We have the Lexicon of words/phrases used here:

I laughed so hard to see that, it reminded me of so much I'd forgotten!

Be Thou Comforted...that reminds me of Coonskinner, LOL

and this one:

Feral - (adj) Used when you are losing an argument and as a last ditch effort you use something that is only true in an extremely small percentage of the population to try and prove your point. Usually used with the word "children", as in "Well, you know, in the case of feral children....".

I actually made the list, I actually made a contribution to the Forum world, LOL. That was an debate with Chax. Ahhh...the good old days.


Hyper-critical religious phariseeism - coined by Tribblenator Most here would find it hard to believe that once upon a time Tribble called ME a "typical hyper-critical pentecostal judge"!

I'm all feeling nostalgic now!
