Sean Reynolds rant about terminology

[Aaron L]

I just wanted to point out that one thing about the fantasy words and stuff, really. Thats all I wanted to do...

Remeber kids: Seanboy may or may not be a language facist, but he certainly is a political one. Check this out: http://www.seankreynolds.com/misc/rant.html The level of evil in this document has convinced me to never buy anything with Sean's name on it.

Let's not go here, please. I like this thread and want to continue taking part in it. Bringing up controversial political topics will only get it locked down by the responsible moderators of this board.

I think, perhaps, we should avoid going into a socio-political tangent...

I second that. This is going to heat up faster than ... something very fast heating up, so let's not talk politics.

Let's talk beverages.

I love the way several of the threads I've been participating in lately suddenly has been about tea or what we in Denmark, directly translated, call sodawater.

I enjoy tea

I have sometimes enjoyed tea along with cookies that come out of a tin labled "Danish Butter Cookies" Are said "Danish Butter Cookies," in fact, popular in Denmark?

 

[Tsyr]

Thems thar "danish butter cookies" do be good eating...

I do so wish I had me some.

Hmmm... yes, tea. I like tea. Can't stand coffee, at least not the drink (the flavour in some things can be quite palatable).

Oh, and taking a moment for a shameless plug since this thread gets so many hits, <enter shameless plug mode> Visit my Story Hour! (link in sig) </shameless plug mode)

I have really had a bad day. Did not need to read hippocritical ramblings.

sorry

Damn that guy needs to get laid or something...

But who cares? His opinion means as much to me as this pile of lint collecting on my desk.

Agreed.

What is it by the way with some people and their hobbies? I could imagine this guy claiming that a fantasy movie was 'wrong' if the "wizards" didn't need spellbooks.

Please Jasperak, calm down! (looks nervously around at Moderators closing in on thread).

Here, have a cup of tea, it'll help sooth your offended senses.

 

[Jasperak]

Woops, six+ posts about tea since I started writing...
I'll have some Earl Grey hot...

Sorry, bad day at work
