Has he ever made common usage of 'sully the threads'?

 

[Neesy]

..."half a dozen"... I mean why not five or seven...

 

[Neesy]

..."half a dozen"... I mean why not five or seven...

I don't recall this - was he maybe using it like this:

"Six of one, half a dozen of the other"?

 

[not_nadine]

Half a dozen is six. ... yeah. A baker's dozen is 13. But everyone knows this.
I have already done all my mathing for the day at work. Weekend off - no maths. But do want donuts now.

I don't remember him using 'half a dozen' and thinking anything was strange of it.


edit. 13 plus 6 equals 19. I will be showing myself out now.

Maybe not. We have a lot of visitors from all over, or people forgot, different age groups who might not be familiar with the phrase. And although it is self explanatory, it never hurts to remind us.

So, like many people have done on this board, she gave a definition/reference post.

Thanks Neesy!

You say true. But it was directed at me, as to why I replied.

This is why I clarified about the op of the question.

But, I still don't remember SK using that phrase as a common one.

I just didn't want Neesy to feel bad at your passive aggressive response.

As you wish. I'll let Marsha and Jordan know you want your account deleted.

You were reported Nadine. And not by Neesy. Everyone needs to remember that people REPORT people for things. This is not some arbitrary Moderator decision. You. Were. Reported.

eaves.

 

[not_nadine]

Fine. I would like to speak to Ms. Mod first.

 

[Dana Jean]

I think I deserve to know what horrible thing that I did.

Read your response. Do you want to keep this public or would you rather discuss this privately? I'm more than happy to keep it public, but your call.

Nothing in my responses were edited.
