Nahhhhh. You make me laugh too much.

That makes it all make sense now. You believe that engaging in "childish.. tresome, banal" conversation is productive.

I see.

Doesn't he though!! Don't you just want to track him down and hug him and squeeze him and call him Korg.

/me calls the local police and requests a cop be detailed to personal protection duty as Korg might be being subjected to being stalked by an insane pair of hormonally driven SLers.

Again.. If no one had paid any attention, they (excepting maybe Homer Simpson of course) would not have influenced the world.

Thanks to your glorious leader you don't have to bother with actually charging them with anything, just accuse them of being terrorists and then you won't have to bother with all that tiresome business with the lawyers and courts.

Sorry. None of these cases are "one person changing the world". If no one paid attention to them, then nothing would have changed. In none of those cases has any single person changed the world - it took followers, and depending on your perspective, the outcomes were not "good" ones for specific groups.


Funny you say that...your ideological bs was not the same when discussing Hitler and Bush...Your inconsistency is not astounding but comical.

If the alien is finally determined not to be removable, detention pursuant to this subsection shall terminate.

`(3) CERTIFICATION- The Attorney General may certify an alien under this paragraph if the Attorney General has reasonable grounds to believe that the alien--

`(7) REVIEW OF CERTIFICATION- The Attorney General shall review the certification made under paragraph (3) every 6 months. If the Attorney General determines, in the Attorney General's discretion, that the certification should be revoked, the alien may be released on such conditions as the Attorney General deems appropriate, unless such release is otherwise prohibited by law.

`(4) RULE OF DECISION- The law applied by the Supreme Court and the United States Court of Appeals for the District of Columbia Circuit shall be regarded as the rule of decision in habeas corpus proceedings described in paragraph (1).

`(c) STATUTORY CONSTRUCTION- The provisions of this section shall not be applicable to any other provision of this Act.'.

(b) CLERICAL AMENDMENT- The table of contents of the Immigration and Nationality Act is amended by inserting after the item relating to section 236 the following:

Oh, excuuuuse me for not watching the Simpsons and actually looking it up in the most convenient dictionary. Being mystified by your extremely rude post I Googled a bit more and now I get it.

'cromulent
[nonsense word] used in an ironical sense to mean legitimate, and therefore, in reality, spurious and not at all legitimate (assumes common knowledge of the Simpsons reference) '

Mind your f*cking language Korg.

Here's an interesting definition:

Cromulent: Expression used to legitimize another expression of dubious existence. Used in the ironic sense in that it defends the questionable use of an illigitimate or slang word with another made-up expression. The intent of the phrase is generally used in conjunction with insults to high talkers, english majors and otherwise insufferable people who feel the need to correct others. Often accompanied by a punch to the stomach.

Also:

Cromulent: A nonce word is a word used only "for the nonce"—to meet a need that is not expected to recur. Quark, for example, was a nonce word appearing only in James Joyce's Finnegans Wake until Murray Gell-Mann used it to name a new class of subatomic particle. The use of the term nonce word in this way was apparently the work of James Murray, the influential editor of Oxford English Dictionary.

Nonce words frequently arise through the combination of an existing word with a familiar prefix or suffix, in order to meet a particular need (or as a joke). The result is not a non-word: although it would not be found in any dictionary, it is instantly comprehensible. If the need recurs (or the joke is widely enjoyed), nonce-words easily enter regular use (initially as neologisms) just because their meaning is obvious.

Sigh... :rolleyes:

Irony is defined as...

The humorous (or mildly sarcastic) use of words to imply something different from, and often opposite to, their literal meaning.

An expression marked by a deliberate contrast between apparent and intended meaning, usually to draw attention to some incongruity1 or irrationality.

A literary style employing such contrasts for humorous or rhetorical effect.

Incongruity between what might be expected and what actually occurs, or an occurrence or circumstance notable for such incongruity

I think he was referring to the use of the word "Fucking" while admonishing you for using rude language. This seemed to be intentional and therefore would be considered ironic.
