So

that is so rude…give her a taste of her own medicine….do it back at the first opportunity nice to be nice and all that.

I tell her that I can snap both fingers and then demonstrate which really ticks her off

It's actually pretty ironic that I'm the only one in my family that can snap both fingers but I hate the noise

Because I’m agreeing with @JustTC to a point…


I have a legit reason (not excuse) for exactly why I wear shorts year round and when the torso might get a jumper top of jacket….

Glad you survived, congrats! Explains your handle?
Wear what suits you; you don't owe anyone an excuse or reason.

I lack self control sometimes

me too.

 

[STACEYH]

Yeah, well tapping a shoulder works just as well

That means they have to touch me. Nope. I will take a finger snap over someone touching me.

Irregardless and co-conspirators are not real words. I don't care who says them, they are bastardizations and abominations. So just stop. Say regardless or irrelevant. And Conspirators. One co- is plenty.

Is irregardless a word?​

Yes. It may not be a word that you like, or a word that you would use in a term paper, but irregardless certainly is a word. It has been in use for well over 200 years, employed by a large number of people across a wide geographic range and with a consistent meaning. That is why we, and well-nigh every other dictionary of modern English, define this word. Remember that a definition is not an endorsement of a word’s use.

Definition of coconspirator :​

a person who conspires with one or more others : a fellow conspirator​

Five of his co-conspirators were also jailed for their roles in the plot.
