What can we do about a playing field that unfairly tilts towards eggheads and bores and others who want to be smarter than their ancestors?

Other peoples history too. That's why I went to college and stayed for twelve years.

@Smelly, you have entirely too much time on your hands.  Take a chill pill, please.

P.S. the frickin spell checker still doesn't work.  After fully 3 months?  Go Figure.

Had the spellchecker been working, surely your username would come out right.

I thought I already did , but you took it to be offending.

I think a spell-check is a good thing , but it should not keep one from writing proper language to start with. Before I post a message , I read it again and try to eliminate my errors. Sometimes even after posting I find errors and correct them asap.

Man, you ARE history. Personal proofreading is really old school.

Glad to see you zborg. That clown is giving Groucho a bad name.

ZBorg , grandmaster of one-liners , nice to see you're after my scalp again. Glad they unplugged your head from your rectum ?

@Pelly, take your finger out of the dike.  Please hurry.  We need more English lessons from your Lordship.  Three easy payments of $19.95?  Free shipping too?

Thanks zborg , you seem to know at least something about Holland.

It is not my job to educate you , this is a thing you have to do yourself. Maybe you can ask Ziryab to help you on your way , he is an educated man and has a realistic view on the state of the nation.

I'm honoured by your invitation , it's always good to be amongst friends , but I'm afraid I have to decline the offer to cross the Atlantic Auction. Too much to do here and so little time ...

Learn to write concisely, @Pelly.  You'll be a better man for it.

I had to look up concisely on wiki because I didn't know what it meant.

Concise :

  • brief but comprehensive
  • Expressing much in few words; clear and succinct.

Something like a highclass one-liner ?!

These forum threads are clearly a low-class endeavor, given all the scatological humor.

But hope springs eternal.  Smile

Guess what , I had to look up scatological humor as well ! Yes it is true , I used it as a weapon against you and some other people as well.

Thanks for educating me , I learned at least two more English words today.

Even though I'm not from the Neverlands, I think the word is "poopological", zborg;)

Americans are very lucky the British conquered most of the world.  

Otherwise no one would understand us.  Nor care either.
