Yes. I knew of a copy of the Longshoremen's VFW championship year existing on 78 somewhere. Heard a cassette dub of it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sarcasm is cutting, but not 'always' of the opposite meaning via irony as you contend. Sarcasm can be satirical; using cutting mockery, ridicule, and disdain to point out someone else's vice. Churchill meant this retort as cutting satirical sarcasm, a quick quip to shut her down from her own satirical sarcasm, and not as a statement of fact. Moreover, what is and is not funny is purely subjective. But dude, you are on a roll, keep the spinning wheel rotating!! I am overwhelmed by your cutting sarcasm and wit and will therefore stop the pendulum, since a pendulum needs outside energy to keep oscillating. I expect you to not be the "outside energy".

Hopefully, a new organization will take it's place with more traditional and progressive rules. yeah, kids with zero military background wearing faux military uniforms will do a lot to stop sexual predation insightful!

Only a handful of corps were still "fuax military" by the mid-2000's or so. I do wish corps were more identifiable. I love the way BD does it where the uniform is always a bit different, but you can still tell it's BD. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
