    The first problem with those definitions is that distinguishing the two requires mind-reading.

    I wasn't sure myself until the "oh I was just trolling you lol" backslide, which made it obvious.

    I'm not normally a behaviorist, but I think in this case it may be appropriate.

    If you had more than superficial knowledge of behaviorism you would know that one can act like a behaviorist but not be one.

    I am very disappointed by your lack of accuracy, PedanticCurmudgeon.

    Is my signature encouraging people? Maybe I should change it.

    It's not that USian is "non-standard".  It's that the only people who use
    that made up word are dicks who think they are funny, but aren't.
    'Merkin' tends to be a popular alternative.



    I'll just sit here quietly while people google for [1617 Merkin] and [urban merkin]...

    You live in the wrong Newcastle and you expect people to google stuff based on your comments?

    I always thought that was a pickle, until I realized I was thinking of a gherkin.

    Regardless, I still will mentally substitute the word for "pickle", because it's funnier that way.

    Well, clearly I can't expect you to. Not that I expect people to - normally - believe, and act on, something that's appearing in a public profile. You've already twice proved yourself to be an idiot, (and currently incapable of highlighting two words, right clicking and left clicking 'search google'.)



    Three if you count this latest post.



    Coventry seems a bit full at the moment, and a current denizen seems to be less of a twat than he was when he first went there - think I need to change a few people around....



    By the way - that pic looks nothing like Newcastle, England. Possibly Eton...



    There's no lasses, and the (non-existant lasses) aren't wearing crop-tops/boob-tubes and belts posing as skirts. Unless you've been watching 'Geordie Shore'? In which case I'm sure I have some news for you...

    haha, that's the first funny post you make, you just said BOOB! what a comedian. We've got ourselves a Benny Hill.

    BTW: I just got a phone call from Madame Irma, my psychic, and she said you will reply something that involves the word "idiot"

    Why would I say the word "idiot"?

    OH WAIT SHIT

    Yes. The "right" Newcastle is in Australia, and the "right" Portland is in Oregon. Any other city with those names is a lame wannabe and should change its name, just like the city of Berlin in Ontario was renamed to Kitchener.

    Apart from that, those boys are far too handsome to be British.

    Okay, so which San Jose has to change, the one in Costa Rica or the one in California?

    Isn't the one in Costa Rica a big gaycation place?

    @Costa Rica Gay Map said:

    The capital city is the most gay friendly place in Central America and has one of the most vibrant and lively gay scenes in Latin America.

    So you get to pick: one of those cities is a cool place with Cisco and eBay headquarters plus the Sharks hockey team; the other one has a bunch of latino dudes running around in tight shorts and probably a bunch of older dudes with gold chains and a strong A535 smell.

     Haven't got a dog in this fight except to say that "left" would be apposite in more than one way, and to rail against those assholes in Portland Maine, who had the temerity to name their town the same name as the one in Oregon almost 70 years earlier.

    Fuck every city name!

    If prayers can be retroactive, I don't see why name changing would be different. Unless you know better than god.

    Now I'll go pray that this thread should be created.
