I guess that I am old. As I remember that the terms, bums, winos, tramps, never do wells, scum of the earth, druggies etc. being used back in the day. All here in LA of all places.
''They'' is also a person of unspecified gender. For instance, it could be a he or a she, we just don't know so calling them a they is quite proper. The English language has many nuances that we don't pick up on if we stop our learning at the third grade.
You got empty, you're going to get break-ins. Should be a rule: Place abandoned, owner has six months to tear it down. You don't have an approved plan to tear down something, you don't get approval to build it.
I'm shocked! Seriously, a current story. Electrifying reading. Bet his parent's grounded him growing up until he could conduct himself correctly. Favorite band was AC/DC. Yeah...I'll show myself out.
I remember when it was new. 50 or so years ago my father's company provided much of the concrete for it. Now, it's been completely closed for five years. Well, at least someone still got a charge out of it.

ReplyDeleteThey? THEY? there was one effing person in that vid and the story indicates the authorities found ONE body.
THEY? I learned, I think it was back in THIRD GRADE, that "they" meant multiple people or things.
What in the ever loving F*CK?!?!?!?!?

Yes he’s a charcoal briquette now but that doesn’t stop him from voting several times next week.
ReplyDelete“Attracts scavengers and the unhoused”. WTF is unhoused? Fookin liberals and their ruination of the English language

ReplyDeleteI hope you never find yourself in that situation, SgtBob. I am, and it sucks on top of all the other problems it created.
