Humpy’s continued membership is proof positive that the mods are incapable of recognizing trolling, and/or there’s a grandfather clause.
He’s not so bad when he doesn’t get political. They should try a handy rule: keep his ass out of political discussions like handy and medical discussions.
There is a years long pattern of multi posting already noted in the past threads. Since he also pretends to the different political affiliations depening on the need he percieves, it is a kind of political trolling to get out his political message (which is clearly extreme right despite pretending otherwise).
In which Arizona Mike shows himself to be an Alt-right troll and disingenuous piece of shit.
Who is now added to my ignore list. No, I don’t bother having discussions with people this dead set on trolling others with alt-right propaganda.
In CA, we call those critters from the east, Zonies. They invade every summer.
Zonie Mike fits the mold.
and yet you replied to him
To paraphrase Marge Simpson, I’ve only read it on the internet (Violent Femmes, that is).
That’s why I think of it as rhyming with “bomb.” Or, at least, closer to that than to the first syllable in “feminine.”
Okay, I’ll bite. When pronouncing “femme fatale” in competently-pronounced French, what word in American English should “femme” rhyme with?
Gem, I think.
[ETA: I don’t speak French, either, but I’ve heard movie critics pronounce it that way.]
None, really. The “e” and the “m” are both a bit different than those in English. I suppose you could rhyme it with “them” or “stem” but it wouldn’t be exactly right.
Femme rhymes with gem if it is pronounced in English, but that’s not quite the pronunciation in French.
Meh. Then I withdraw my objection to people rhyming it with “phlegm.”
Maybe he’s Inspector Clouseau.
Scum…
Orange.
For Og’s sake, Clothahump, why would you even type these words?!?:
And I assume you looked at those words before you hit Post. Did it never occur to you that anyone here could fact-check you? Did you check yourself first?
Even if you actually believed that you’d read that he’d said that, wouldn’t you still stop and say “Wait, am I being irrational here?”
Why would Wolff tell people his book was bullshit? Does it make sense that here’s the one author out of millions that doesn’t want people to buy his book?* (“Uh, oh, my book is flying off the shelves. No one wants that to happen, what can I do to stop it?”)*
It makes NO sense that Wolff would ever say that, and posting it as the truth only tanks your credibility here.
Or did you give up on that years ago?
Christy Hemme pronounces her name ‘Hemi’ (Hem-ee).
So obviously, Fem-ee Fate-al*-ee.
(* as in the name ‘Al’)
Sigh. No, I wasn’t joking.
