    Not only interesting, but also a thoroughly decent fellow.Jamal

    Good to hear such honourable attribute in a person. I wish I can meet him one day too.

    I have noticed that many of the banned only got to that place after attempting to dominate all other conversations in a discussion.Paine

    Looks like I'm ripe for getting banned.

    he seems to be an interesting user.javi2541997

    That's a strange way to refer to a person. It carries some bad connotations in my mind which are very difficult to separate from the term.

    I know, and I'm not worried, I just thought I'd mention how your specific use of words affected me.

    See, I'm calling you a user too, by saying that you use words. But by specifying exactly what it is that you are using, I avoid that blackhole, or vacuum of nothingness (which triggers the imagination), that your use of "user" fell into in my mind.

    I see. I thought I wasn't able to call him friend, mate, buddy, etc... Because I didn't meet him yet inside this online symposium.
    Nevertheless, you are right. I think the word user represents the nothingness or the zero 0⃣ in terms of computational digits.

    I think I should call him for his name now on.

    Windows doing weird maths for me. I am scared now... Probably someone is hacking my computer. That's what happens when you use DuckDuckGo.

    Well, here's a goat and a pig. The goat is a voracious animal; but, a pig can be more.

    I think we all can agree this is the greatest, most ironic, thread in the history of TPF. We owe thanks to alan 1000. I suggest you pin it to the top of the first page right under The Shoutbox.

    Indeed. Goats eat everything. Therefore goats eat pigs.

    ...a pig can be more.Shawn

    Proof: sInce goats eat a pigs, a pig can be a goat. Hence your are correct: a pig can be more than a pig, it can be a goat.

    It would be a perfect world if we made do with satisfying our appetite from wild pigs instead of growing them for meat in farms.

    The rate of rate of increase of Shoutbox 2 posting vs Shoutbox 1 posting is now exponential such that Shoutbox 2 will overtake Shoutbox 1 in number of posts 23 minutes ago at 21:25 on Jan 08 2023 (though my calculations might be slightly off). Enjoy this success while you can as Shoutbox 2 may potentially become a victim of its own success such that in order that the number of posts doesn't soon exceed the number of atoms in the known universe, it may have to be closed.

    One day I wish to retire so I could become a farmer, which is something a farmer never said, and something no one ever said is that they wanted to retire so they could become a lawyer.

    As Shakespeare wrote (Henry VI, Part 2) - "The first thing we do, let's retire all the lawyers."
