That was what the writer was saying - that the man was a (metaphorical) ghoul, reveling in people’s death.
What’s the charge, being a ghoul? A succulent Welsh ghoul?
This is necromancy manifest.
But why is it important that he’s a Welsh ghoul?
Welsh ghouls are the worst…
I believe the proper spelling is “ghwl”.
You call it necromancy. I call it raising a family.
You really don’t want a ghoul dressed up as the Grim Reaper holding a scythe, standing over you when you wake up in post-op recovery.
Or worse, in pre-op.
“Ydych chi wedi gwneud heddwch â’r Hollalluog?”
Google Translate says gŵl.
Firefighters trying to battle the wildfires in Spokane keep having to ground their equipment because people keep flying drones into the fire zone.
And not one of the good ones.
One of my favorite lines in An American Werewolf in London was when David transformed back to human, sans clothing, in Hyde Park and takes care of the situation. Smash cut to a small boy tugging on his mother’s sleeve, “A naked American man stole my balloon,” like there are any number of naked Irishmen about.
Exactly. Ghoul is a word that works well as a pejorative; as a descriptor of an entity that actually exists, less so.*
I’m aware that the term does have an IRL meaning, but I regard that meaning as being more specific.
I think that’s some variation of rarebit.
This is happening all over. It needs to stop. Examples need to be made and drone disabling technology needs to mature.
This is rich. A published chemistry paper has been retracted after authors were caught using AI to write it without disclosure.
A commenter on the PubPeer website spotted a weird sentence in which the AI substituted “mass killing of an ethnic group” for “final solution”.
“1 ml of the mass killing of an ethnic group”
Gotta proofread, fellas.
Hehehe. Tell me you’re a sophisticated version of autocomplete without telling me you’re a sophisticated version of autocomplete.
AI is changing everything!
That’s sort of how some years back we had a spate of instances of “black” being autocorrected to “African American” no matter the context (or for true stupidity, when ONN autocorrected the name of Tyson Gay to “Tyson Homosexual”).
Just saw this exchange reposted online:
" Here’s Telemachus’ mentor. He’s named, uh, Mentor. Bravo Nolan."
“That character is the origin of the word.”
“It literally came out two days ago.”

Link, please, just so we can see this in all its glory
