There was no hyperbole in my response. Seems like we found two words you can't define properly. Tom Send a noteboard - 30/01/2012 02:11:43 PM
The question used was to illustrate how bad your example was.
Political correctness is the pettiest form of casuistry.

ἡ δὲ κἀκ τριῶν τρυπημάτων ἐργαζομένη ἐνεκάλει τῇ φύσει, δυσφορουμένη, ὅτι δὴ μὴ καὶ τοὺς τιτθοὺς αὐτῇ εὐρύτερον ἢ νῦν εἰσι τρυπώη, ὅπως καὶ ἄλλην ἐνταῦθα μίξιν ἐπιτεχνᾶσθαι δυνατὴ εἴη. – Procopius

well from this side of it... - 28/01/2012 08:45:08 AM 422 Views
I think your point is valid. - 28/01/2012 10:23:37 AM 438 Views
I'm not sure I agree with that. - 28/01/2012 10:59:31 AM 441 Views
You can disagree with the English language all you like. - 28/01/2012 03:29:05 PM 570 Views
Well. - 28/01/2012 06:11:26 PM 418 Views
I don't see much point in trying to preserve the archaic use of the word - 28/01/2012 01:54:53 PM 493 Views
Ha! That's silly. - 28/01/2012 03:32:01 PM 446 Views
No it is silly to think you can make a living language stagnant - 28/01/2012 05:38:27 PM 451 Views
That's hyperbole if I ever heard it. - 28/01/2012 08:29:20 PM 423 Views
If you were to ask 100 Americans what their profession was they would tell you what their job was - 29/01/2012 02:52:22 AM 403 Views
Ask 100 Americans "When did you cease raping children?" - 29/01/2012 03:05:57 AM 514 Views
speaking of hyperbole *NM* - 29/01/2012 03:09:45 AM 188 Views

disagreement with you equals ignorance, how typical - 30/01/2012 03:39:36 PM 414 Views
Not disagreement, just faulty logic and misuse of words. - 30/01/2012 06:51:38 PM 426 Views
True story.... - 28/01/2012 09:11:10 PM 494 Views
You're absolutely correct. It's just society trying to make shit jobs sound better. - 28/01/2012 03:25:48 PM 448 Views
Yeah, it's important to denote which occupations demand extraordinary, society-affecting judgement. - 28/01/2012 05:19:30 PM 535 Views
at this point, though, I think teaching should be professionalized - 28/01/2012 05:37:46 PM 496 Views
that will be hard for them to do - 28/01/2012 05:44:53 PM 432 Views
depends on the teacher you talk to. - 28/01/2012 07:11:58 PM 417 Views
That is a good point. - 28/01/2012 08:16:38 PM 404 Views
You need a license, don't you? *NM* - 28/01/2012 08:15:10 PM 185 Views
I believe the actual term used is "certification" - 28/01/2012 08:49:23 PM 406 Views
We have a certification process that any college grad with common sense could pass. - 28/01/2012 10:36:29 PM 446 Views
Perhaps not, then. - 28/01/2012 11:12:33 PM 394 Views
in my mind teaching is indeed a profession. *NM* - 28/01/2012 08:25:18 PM 251 Views
and there is the problem - 29/01/2012 02:59:15 AM 502 Views
A teacher must have a collage degree and not only that but - 29/01/2012 11:07:51 AM 417 Views
oh I disagree with the strict code of conduct part - 29/01/2012 05:57:35 PM 429 Views
Yes! - 28/01/2012 09:25:03 PM 466 Views
Connotations change. Deal with it. *NM* - 28/01/2012 10:29:20 PM 356 Views
