you answered your own question.

To answer Qice: forcing a reaction (e.g. banning) is exerting a kind of power.

Yes, I can see that point... but I still don't get it -
guess I just don't understand the desire to be driven out of town on a rail...:headshake

*smiles* yah. But I recall taking rather a pride, when i was 17 in the fact that I'd been barred from several cafes and pubs :P

Being 'naughty' or 'bad' has a certain cache...especially for the young.

And now yer fuckin' respectable. Bloody shame, that.

They are the sort who get off on being assholes when the consequences of assholity are small. It's a nerdy way of being a bully. If I'm not mistaken, it is mainly practiced by adolescents. (They probably need jobs to occupy their minds.)

Well, now we're up to a coupla Trolls -- the unadorned one (hello!) and Grendel T. etcetera.

A cache is supplies hidden away and sounds like "cash." Just one more letter gives that certain cachet which sounds like how US Army spokesmen kept mispronouncing the other word in the first year of OIF. I don't even think they're related. I kept shaking my head.

Did I have an unfair advantage on the spokesmen, growing up near a river in Colorado named Cache la Poudre? There are French-language placenames all over the northern half of the American West.

Hell.... I'm a troll and nobody ever even noticed. You insensitive bastards!

Urbane Guerrilla 12-15-2009 09:19 PM

Well, put your little felt loincloth back on and comb your hair up straight, then.

You're quite right; I meant cachet lol.

We have a particularly strong equilibrium here, so the effect appears greater when it is upset.

Troll 12-17-2009 12:06 PM

thank you for finally unmoderating my posts, oh great and powerful volpe.

Shawnee123 12-17-2009 12:09 PM
