Peace

This, of course, means the two aren’t synonymous.

As I said up-thread: 'It's just the beginning of a goddamned conversation wherein folks are encouraged to offer interpretations. The hope: a lengthy enough thread will evolve away from the opening question and self-sustain based on the give and take of the participants.'

And: I do believe I have exactly what I wanted.

Now: go play with Kodo and Podo like a good boy, or, trundle down to the Unitarian Fellowship and hob-nob with the other lukewarms…

"I believe I used the term correctly."


Then: I leave you with your subjective assessment since subjective assessment is all it is.

One woman's 'arrogant, tiresome way' is one man's plain speech.

Sorry if you're not up to keeping up.

And: for the record, using the right (as you see it) word doesn't negate insult, which was your intent.

Can't you at least be honest enough to admit you were levying an insult, or haven't you the clarity to see even that?

Now: I head home and feed my brother's unloving bio-automata (his cats) and spend the evening with a delightful bundle of loving 'I'ness (my nephew).

If you can't tell the difference between the two, then, you have my sympathies...
