Look:eek: another FARC.

"Rebels of the Revolutionary Armed Forces of Colombia, or FARC, are fighting for control of Catatumbo against the army, another rebel group and outlawed paramilitary fighters."--From above CNN.com story.

How did they get FARC out of Revolutionary Armed Forces of Colombia? Shouldn't it be RAFC:confused:

My Spanish is fairly rusty, but I'll be willing to wager a guess that they pulled FARC from the order the words follow in Spanish.

Because it stands for

Fuerzas Armadas Revolucionarias de Colombia

(As a side note, this is how you make yourself vulnerable to being the Cellar punching bag: by showing your ignorance of many subjects while posting like an authority on others. When you don't treat others with respect, and they have an opportunity to make you look like an idiot, they generally will take it. And so it is, because your knowledge of Spanish is obviously extremely poor or non-existant, you ask a question and show yourself to be vulnerable. Perhaps if you weren't so condescending when someone disagrees with you, you might get a warmer reception. In other words, what goes around comes around.)

Thanks Dave, my googling is somewhat inhibited by incoming phone calls today.

Well, that was more a translation of the English into Spanish by the trusty My Brain 1.0. (My Spanish is not as rusty as yours, apparently.)

I haven't used mine (Spanish, not Brain) in forever, and I'm about armpit deep in transaction standards right now, so I'm fluent in HIPAA, not Spanish. (And I'll let you guess which one I'm preferring at the moment!)

Anyway....I knew I was on the right track, even if I was a mile away from Home base :)

Thanks Dave, now that wasn't an unusually cruel post now was it? What the fuck did I ever do to you? Now a simple innocuous question turns into "Let's Fuck Over BUGZ Hour". I never said I know everything there is to know about everything, why else would I ask such a fucking stupid question that is so obvious to someone of your superior intellect? I took 2 years of Spanish in high school and 2 more years in college and have never had the opportunity to use it in a daily conversation to keep up with it. It never occurred to me and my simpleton mind that the acronym stood for something in Spanish. At least DagNEY, who readily admits she hates me (which I can fully accept, and still respect her for because she at least has the balls to come right out and say it) didn't post a fucked up post like you did. What's your problem, dude?
Dagney • Sep 22, 2003 5:05 pm
Again, let's try and read clearly. Shall I cut and paste, or are you able to find where I said what I said?

I never stated I HATE you. I said I don't LIKE you.

Let's do a comparison.

Hate - wish you'd fall under a bus and get crushed.

Don't like - Would rather not waste my time dealing with you.

Nope, I never said I hate you. I hate only one person on the face of the earth, and I'm sorry to burst your precious little bubble, unless you're my father, younger, more female, and on the other side of the country, it's not you.

But you are pushing your luck. You'll be MUCH better off if you simply don't mention my name.

No, it wasn't, and this one won't be either. But I make no guarantees about the next one.

What the fuck did I ever do to you?


I find you to be a waste of space <b>for me</b>, but I understand and appreciate that I am a waste of space <b>for others</b>. Fortunately, the community is big enough for the both of us. Regardless, what you did or did not do has no effect on what I posted.

Now a simple innocuous question turns into "Let's Fuck Over BUGZ Hour". I never said I know everything there is to know about everything, why else would I ask such a fucking stupid question that is so obvious to someone of your superior intellect?


I never said that you said that. I said that you act like that sometimes, and you do. The first step to beating an affliction is to admit it. Go back and read through some of your previous posts (i.e., the nut-snipping thread with quzah) and keep an open mind. If you weren't the person writing, wouldn't you think you sounded a bit like a know it all?

I took 2 years of Spanish in high school and 2 more years in college and have never had the opportunity to use it in a daily conversation to keep up with it. It never occurred to me and my simpleton mind that the acronym stood for something in Spanish.


And I wasn't calling you an idiot. I was simply stating that it's a rather ridiculous question <b>if you know any Spanish</b> and that you obviously don't and <b>are ignorant of the Spanish language</b>. It appears as though you're ignorant of the English language as well. I recommend heading over to dictionary.reference.com and looking up "ignorant". It's not an insult, so chill out.

At least DagNEY, who readily admits she hates me (which I can fully accept, and still respect her for because she at least has the balls to come right out and say it) didn't post a fucked up post like you did.


There was no fucked up post. You simply read emotion into it where there was none. You had previously inquired in another thread why you were easy to "pick on", and I was answering that question. You take my objective opinion and turn it into an insult, probably because you are incapable of receiving constructive criticism.

What's your problem, dude?


I believe the appropriate question to ask yourself is "Why am I unable to take any type of criticism as anything other than a personal insult?"

Now, I'm not trying to be mean here, but I'm going to be honest. You will never win in an argument with me, so don't bother. I will tear you to shreds, because I do not get into arguments where I cannot demonstrate my contention to be [reasonably] true. If I wanted to be an asshole to you, I would do so. So when I'm not obviously attacking (an obvious attack would be "Listen, you stupid fucking cunt, it's FARC because it's Spanish. If you had half a fucking brain cell working in that fat head of yours, you would have figured this out and not wasted my fucking time by posting such an inane question."), I'm probably not attacking at all.

I was answering two of your questions. You're welcome.

Ok - I figured since I was new that I wouldn't get involved in the Luv vs. everyone else. But - being a new person ( and that I am extremely bored at work right now) I have pretty much been going through everything and reading everything.

Can I just say DAMN GIRL! I normally try not to get involved in this kinda stuff - but DAMN. You are just strait annoying!!!!! In every post you are being passive agressive and putting on a "poor me" type of attitude. I have also noticed that whenever you post - there is this long ass diatribe between you and someone else and how they are being mean to you. GET OVER IT. ITS THE INTERNET!!!!

That was my 2 cents. I am done now. Thank you.
