VIRAGO.

LenHazell53 comments on Sep 5, 2021:

Oddly virago is a Latin term that means "thanks to man" in the sense of a respectful impersonation vir=man ago=thanked Later of course it became derogatory, assigning "inappropriate" male traits to a woman, such as being an arsehole, being bad tempered and a bully. All traits that apparently are not only acceptable but admirable in the male, for some "odd" reason.

I had this problem with one of my Staffies, she would begin to bark at 3.00 pm every day to be taken for a walk. I figured that she was hearing the bell ring in the local close by primary school to signal the end of the school day. However when visiting my father who lives out in the middle of nowhere, she still began barking at 3 on the dot. What was more unnerving was that, even when the clocks changed for BST or GMT she still barked at three by the clock. So either she could actually tell time by the clock, or was picking up on some unconscious reaction from me. My current dog, a Shar-Pei, is also practically autistic and gets very angry if her precise routine is not adhered to, going off to sulk in corners and grumble to herself until things are back on schedule.

STULTIFY.

LenHazell53 comments on Sep 1, 2021:

Therefore Stultify to behave in the manner of an obstinate or stubborn one Hence To be not open to reason

In the myth of Perseus so grim was the gaze of Medusa the last of the three "Gorgones" she could turn a man to stone with fear allowing her to kill him while he stood frozen. Perseus was able to slay her by turning his back and watching her approach in the fogged back of his shield, before covering his eyes with his helmet, turning and striking her down.

LenHazell53 comments on Aug 31, 2021:

This myth has only gained credence since the version by Israel Kamakawiwoʻole, who substantially altered the lyrics. The original version of the lyrics was commissioned from Harburg and, like all the other songs, were based on dialog from the script and the book by L. Frank Baum who was an atheist. Harburg and Arlen wrote all of the other songs in the film however they were not a song writing team. Harold Arlen was a very prolific composer who worked in Holywood right up until his death in 1986, Harburg wrote the original songs for the film but had them roundly rejected as being too poor, his lyrics however made it in to the film but for many years were uncredited. The two men did not know each other and only met at the premier in 1939.

So banning black people from the priesthood until 1978, was nothing to do with this, it was just that black people erm "were not ready" for the priesthood YET, but now they are and the declaration in 78 confirmed that and had nothing to do with the federal government threatening to withdraw the church's tax except status if they did not stop denying it.

By these standards the US is already well on its way to being fascist in all but name.

"A Lyttell Gest of Robyn Hode" is an English folk ballad, the oldest known copy of which dates from 1450, but tells of a "Brave Yoman" who lived in the time of King Edward, probably Edward II who had in 1324 a "valet de chambre" with the name of Robin Hood. Pitting Robin Hood against wicked usurper King John Lackland first appeared in the 16th century when the Lincoln weaving company based in the midlands of England released an advertising ballad called "The adventure of Robyn Hood" to sell their new product Lincoln Graine a new shade of red. This fashionable cloth replaced their previous Best seller Will (meaning a poet) Scarlett, Who also appears in the song along with Alan-a-Dale their fictitious spokes person and the maid Marion a clumsy religious metaphor. In later times Friar Tuk, Much the Miller's son and John Little other folk heroes were added to the myth to form the band of Merry Men. The real Robyn of Loxley (a village just outside of Sheffield) was Robert Fitztooth or Fitzooth (Child of God's own Truth), illegitimate son of Earl of Huntingdon. This Robyn fought in the Crusades gaining fame for his prowess with a sword and bloodthirsty appetite for killing Saracens. He is first identified with Robin Hood in the 1880's when the East Coast Sea Side town of Baytown changed it's name to Robin Hood's Bay in order to attract tourists. This they did by claiming Robin Hood while visiting Whitby abbey saved Baytown from marauding Pirates and had them rename the place in his honour. A deception which drew to the town Bram Stoker who was inspired by said Whitby Abbey to write Dracula and have the Vampire count live there. Sean Connery's appearance as Richard 1 in Prince of thieves is a call back to Connery's Role as the aged Robin Hood in "Robin and Marion" 1976

Comparing one atrocity to another in order to try and claim a spurious moral high ground undermines the seriousness of both tragedies and the evil done in the name of society. Inhumanity is not a competitive sport. Victim hood is not a competition. Anyone who thinks it is, can only be described as a sick fuck! These children, white,black or sky blue pink with yellow dots on, were victims, their parents were victims and the consequences ripple through time as a testament to the failure of people to be civilised, humane or even worthy of the epithets human being. They need to grow up, team up and make sure this never happens again TO ANYONE!

LenHazell53 comments on Aug 28, 2021:

This is very one sided. Service industries are there to provide a service, one that is paid for, often by other service employees who themselves have had to put up with toxic customers and have done so. Now entitled behaviour and bullying is NEVER acceptable from anyone, and the answer is simple, if you are getting bad service at one place, go somewhere else. If a customer is misbehaving send them somewhere else. Don't argue with an idiot, don't engage with a bully. I worked for 5 years in customer services in the then Inland revenue (HMRC now) Dealing face to face with hundreds of people every day, all of who where angry and felt they had been wronged. The colleague who trained me and who I eventually took over from, was a large, combative very rude and angry woman who got in to a dozen fights a day and called security on half those occasions. She only kept her position because no one else would do it, except me apparently. By the time I took over full time security were ringing me to ask if we were actually open, since in five years I only found it necessary to have called them three time. (Once memorably when a man came in to the inquiry office with a fourteen pound sledge hammer and began dismantling the place.) Most situations can be dealt with by simply knowing your job, product knowledge, empathy (Not sympathy) and not rising to combat anger with anger. An obnoxious customer has come looking for a fight, if they don't get what they came looking for they will either leave or allow you to actually help with the root cause of the problem. The old adage applies and works very well "The customer is always right, even when he is completely off his trolley."

Historian Sarah Rutherford in her seminal work "The Victorian Asylum" spends a chapter talking about "The Nuthatch Asylum" in Bodmin Cormwall. (A Nuthatch is a wading marsh bird common in the marsh areas of Devon and Cornwall) A progressive establishment run by a Quaker order, it was perhaps the most humane asylum for the mentally ill in England in the Victorian era. One of their more prestigious patients was Sir William Gull the Queens own physician, who embarrassingly went mad is buried their anonymously in a grave marked "A. Mason" The Doctor who ran the Nuthatch was a Dutch quaker (whose name escapes me for the moment) a follower of the methods for humane treatment of the mentally ill pioneered by William Tuke who pronounced the name of the old converted manor in his European accent as der Nert Hooch. In time staff and locals came to refer to patients as Nert's or Nutters and to Nuthatch itself as the Nuthouse and the Booby Hatch (A booby is a marsh dwelling bird the whoops and howls at night) During world war 2 American Troops were billeted in the reopened "Nert House" and were soon dubbed with the nick name Nerts which many of them pronounced "nerds" meaning crazy people. By this means the word made it back to America where it was heard and used by American Army cartoonist and propagandist Ted Geisel, who in 1950 used the word as a nonsense word in his children's book "If I Ran the Zoo" under his pen name Doctor Suess.

Kubla Khan BY SAMUEL TAYLOR COLERIDGE Or, a vision in a dream. A Fragment. In Xanadu did Kubla Khan A stately pleasure-dome decree: Where Alph, the sacred river, ran Through caverns measureless to man Down to a sunless sea. So twice five miles of fertile ground With walls and towers were girdled round; And there were gardens bright with sinuous rills, Where blossomed many an incense-bearing tree; And here were forests ancient as the hills, Enfolding sunny spots of greenery. But oh! that deep romantic chasm which slanted Down the green hill athwart a cedarn cover! A savage place! as holy and enchanted As e’er beneath a waning moon was haunted By woman wailing for her demon-lover! And from this chasm, with ceaseless turmoil seething, As if this earth in fast thick pants were breathing, A mighty fountain momently was forced: Amid whose swift half-intermitted burst Huge fragments vaulted like rebounding hail, Or chaffy grain beneath the thresher’s flail: And mid these dancing rocks at once and ever It flung up momently the sacred river. Five miles meandering with a mazy motion Through wood and dale the sacred river ran, Then reached the caverns measureless to man, And sank in tumult to a lifeless ocean; And ’mid this tumult Kubla heard from far Ancestral voices prophesying war! The shadow of the dome of pleasure Floated midway on the waves; Where was heard the mingled measure From the fountain and the caves. It was a miracle of rare device, A sunny pleasure-dome with caves of ice! A damsel with a dulcimer In a vision once I saw: It was an Abyssinian maid And on her dulcimer she played, Singing of Mount Abora. Could I revive within me Her symphony and song, To such a deep delight ’twould win me, That with music loud and long, I would build that dome in air, That sunny dome! those caves of ice! And all who heard should see them there, And all should cry, Beware! Beware! His flashing eyes, his floating hair! Weave a circle round him thrice, And close your eyes with holy dread For he on honey-dew hath fed, And drunk the milk of Paradise. Coleridge Had intended it to be an epic poem, written in the throws of a laudanum trip. However he was interrupted by a "man from Porlock" (a near by village) who insisted on engaging Coleridge at length about trivialities. By the time Coleridge had closed the door on the busy body the rest of the poem had been lost to the midst of his drug addled brain forever. Douglas Adams used this incident as a center piece for his novel "The Dirk Gently Holistic Detective Agency"

New Rule: Your Phone is Turning You into an Asshole | Real Time with Bill Maher (HBO) - YouTube

LenHazell53 comments on Aug 23, 2021:

Radio, television and telephones (real ones) came with an accepted etiquette. If a visitor came to your home, you turned off the TV and you conversed with them. Radio the same or turned down for back ground noise. If the phone rang, it was out of the main social area, in the hall or the kitchen, you spoke privately on the phone, out of the room for reasons of mutual privacy and respect. There were other unwritten rules, such as if someone wanted to speak to you, you did not ignore what they were saying and carry on watching Tom & Jerry while they spoke, you paid attention to them favouring the other person over your own personal gratification. Other than in an emergency you did not phone people after 9 o'clock at night. You did not phone your next door neighbour, you went and knocked on the door and spoke to them. If someone used the phone to sexually harass another person it was a crime. p/tSmart phones have no etiquette as to how, when or where you use them and for what purpose. They have almost become a form of ersatz personal telepathy, sharing your life with a chosen group of others, who you connect to at the expense of actual community. You ignore people who are actually there with you, other than to ask them to pay for this opt out, because real people are "Boomers" or old farts who "don't get it." Because Oh God Forbid that a child actually be asked pay their own phone bill or internet bill, by getting a P/t job, because that would be deprivation and child abuse. God Forbid a child be expected to communicate with the family that is feeding them while they sit at the same table and eat. No. rather they sit with a fork in one hand, phone in the other and play a game of candy crush with a "friend" on another continent in a corrupt form of English consisting of a form of short hand gibberish. Other, that is, than to complain to the person cooking for you, that the pizza you spent an hour making is shit, because it did not come from Dominoes and therefore is not 50% monosodium glutamate and does not taste and reek of plastic and so is not "real".

LenHazell53 comments on Aug 23, 2021:

Unfortunately, Jacksie is not cockney rhyming slang. In England Fanny has never meant bottom or buttocks, it has always been a slang term for the vagina. There was an expression used in London in the late 19th century, which was a Jackie-Pardy, short for a politician/civil servant named Jack Pardoe a notorious liar, and a Jack Pardoe promise (Or Jackie Pardy) was worth "shit" as he talked out of his arse. The Modern use of the word Jacksie dates from World War 2. Robert Yaxley was a famous RAF Pilot and rear gunner, much decorated and his name Yaxley was adopted as a slang term by aircrews for being shot from the rear of the plane. Polish and Canadian Pilots however unfamiliar with the name pronounced it Jacksie (J is pronounced Y in polish) assuming it simply meant the rear of the plane. After the war, this entered common slang as back end, backside and eventually your bottom.

Mickle adjective great; large; much.

LenHazell53 comments on Aug 20, 2021:

This is a difficult one because a Mickle can and often does mean a small amount as in the old Scottish proverb "many a mickle macs a muckle" (many small amounts make a large amount) but as the term moved south in to England Mickle and Muckle came to mean the same thing "A large Amount". The confusion comes from the old English word mycel meaning much, being confused with a Michael named for the Saint and Angel, being a slang term for a Penny, given to the poor by the Church on certain Holy days such as Maundy Thursday (The last Thursday before Easter) and Michaelmass (pronounced Micklemass) . The Scottish Term Mickle comes from the Viking word Muchel =one among many and is also the root of the modern English Much. Much is also an old English word for White. So the further North you go the less a Mickle is worth.

Kind of hypocritical of them

What is Janteloven? The Law of Jante in Scandinavian Society

LenHazell53 comments on Aug 20, 2021:

RULE 1 Do not to think you are anything special. * I do not think I am special, I am special to some other people (that is their choice) I know, however, that I am unique, which can be seen as special.* RULE 2 Do not to think you are as good as we are. * Define *good* in this context* RULE 3 Do not to think you are smarter than we are. *If by "smarter" you mean more intelligent, wise or knowledgeable, I will judge your "smarts" only by your actions and words. If you mean "smarter" in the sartorial sense, that is a subjective matter of personal taste.* RULE 4 Do not to imagine yourself better than we are. *Again define better, better in what sense?* RULE 5 Do not to think you know more than we do. * I do not think so, I know so, in certain areas, in other matters you certainly know more than I. Knowledge is not simply judged on quantity.* RULE 6 Do not to think you are more important than we are. *Important in which sense? Under what circumstance? A doctor is more important than a Plumber is when you need a heart bypass, but the opposite is true when you have a burst pipe* RULE 7 Do not to think you are good at anything. *Everyone is good at something, some are exceptional at one or more things, but everyone is also bad at other things too. False modesty is counterproductive.* RULE 8 Do not to laugh at us. *You would not say that if you are a clown or a professional comedian. If you mean do not mock us unduly say so. However if you profess stupid ideas or do stupid things and expect them to be taken seriously, you will be seen as laughable.* RULE 9 Do not to think anyone cares about you. *Again I do not think so, I know so. I also care about other people, including the idiot who wrote these rules. This also explains why Scandinavia has the highest suicide rates in the world.* RULE 10 Do not to think you can teach us anything. *No I don't think I can, because if you take this garbage seriously, you are very likely unreachable.* RULE 11 Perhaps you don't think "we" know a few things about you? * I am sure that if you want to, you do! That would fit with the sort of creepy mentality that could write this sort of thing*

Vamoose verb (used without object) to leave hurriedly or quickly; decamp.

LenHazell53 comments on Aug 18, 2021:

The Spanish Vamos has the same root as the English vamoose, but is the first person plural suggestion *"We should leave"* and so does not fit with the English word Vamoose which comes from Latin vadamus ***"you must depart at once, you must go away now" ***second person indicative order.

Is this opinion right?

LenHazell53 comments on Aug 17, 2021:

It is axiomatic that life consumes life to survive that is the foundation of life itself and is a necessity. However the idea that life should be consumed for purposes of profit, wealth and social division is a purely artificial construct and is the foundation of economic politics a product of greed. People are not commodities to be valued and traded against other commodities such thinking is the foundation of extremism in all it's evil myriad of forms. People's worth can only be judged by their actions toward other people, none are priceless, none are worthless but each has determined their value by their own choices and at one time would have to live with the consequences. However today consequence too is something that can be bargained away.

This is like paying the guy with the gun at your head not to shoot you and your kids, today. Money is not the solution it is the problem climate change has come about because of profiteering and not caring about the consequences. When the guy points the gun at your head, you do not pay him, you certainly don't worry that by not paying him you are robbing of his livelihood. You call a cop and you have him arrested for threatening you and your family's lives!

WHIFFLE.

The wiffle haircut is unconnected with a different spell and named for the adapter added to a pair of clippers used by a military barber to give a crew cut, a mispronunciation of the German "Wahl"
