If you were a landscaper by profession, would you mind sometimes being referred to as a gardener, or would it offend you?

    It would not offend me.

    A landscaper is very different than a gardener.  I would not be offended but someone else might, slightly.

    I don't care either way. 
    Would you call a person who does skywriting a "skyscraper"?

    Not at all...the woman who hired me can call me her pool boy if she wants.

    And what if you were hired by a man or a married couple?

      Somehow, I get the impression that Element only farms himself out to women.

      I don’t know why you’d ask me that.

    You know about him farting himself out to women, so why not?

    Maybe he’s also farming himself out, lol!

    "Farting himself out" ...Must be exhausting.

      Surely someone as apparently intelligent as you purport yourself to be knows the meaning of the expression “I get the impression.”  It neither denotes direct nor definite knowledge of anything, it states quite clearly that it is a notion.




      Wait, I’m just wasting my time here. I keep IAB on speed dial just for situation such as this one. Grrrrrrr.

      IAB and I have a special pact on the subject of Randy D: don’t ask, don’t tell.

     It wasn’t a misspelling; it was an omission on a grap graphic that I didn’t even create, so I didn’t misspell anything on that post. Fake news, fake accusation.  IAB will be notified of this and add it to the ever-growing case file. Grrrrrrr.

    You violated your oath to catch all errors, however arcane and trivial.

    Reported to IAB, Mac.

      Report and counter-report, I see how this is going to play itself out. Grrrrrrrrrrr.

    Unless they just give up and say, “Go away, you deserve each other!”

    You didn't catch 'grap', so call it a draw and move on already.

    It wouldn't bother me as long as I was paid promptly.

    Wait a minute!! How did this simple discussion end up circling the drain as soon as I retired last evening???! This post was edited by NYAD at June 6, 2023 6:08 PM MDT
