I think what it means is any view that uplifts one's attitude or doing things makes them have a better outlook including but not limited to saying "Omm" 5,000 times. Half way through boot camp I was spending the evening drawing a crowd, chanting omm. I've never had such a high stress experience than boot camp. There I was with sufficient weapons and too many witnesses. Stress wise it was only second to substitute teaching the Future Felons of America (FFA*) in junior high school. *In Brownsville, FL, FFA means Future Felons of America. *In Iowa FFA means Future Farmers of America. *In San Francisco FFA means Fist Fuckers of America.

One time I blew a head gasket. When the gasket blew, it warped the heads. It would run, burning black clouds behind it. While driving down the road ignorant toad fucks would scream at me "Change the oil!" Eventually, I replaced the gasket and reground the head -- which worked until the transmission linkage gave up on it. Because I was unemployed, broke and unable to get work in my field without a car -- I joined the navy. In retrospect, I should have stole a car instead.

The cost of the parts to rebuild the engine would be trifling. The labor is the part that makes a person grab their chest and stagger back. A skilled mechanic with an engine lift (engine has to be removed to work on it) with a couple of weeks off from work could take care of it. Otherwise, it's a case of replace the engine. At 16 years old and high mileage, it's not worth replacing anything.

@sassygirl3869 You know the physical demands of the job. Unless you want to teach in the inner city and take on assignments for fast burn out classes (special needs kids), employment will be sporadic at best. Special needs kids teachers take a **lot of days off.** Once you start sending inner city kids to the front desk often, you'll be picking up a lot of days. Everybody assumes a new substitute teacher doesn't know what they're doing so it's common for students to try to get away with **everything.** However, once you've sent the second or third kid to the front desk disruptive students can the act. Certified full time teachers in the inner city have a ton of disruptive students they would **like** to send to the front desk but front desk has a limit on kids they can do that with per year. Therefore when the certified full time inner city teacher finds out the sub has no qualms about sending kids to the front desk, they start requesting that sub. I would always try to pick up as thick a pile of referral to the front desk forms as possible. For four months I substitute taught, I kept driving back home repeating **they're just kids!** It was obscenely stressful until I learned the tricks of the trade. Mind you there's not all that many public school teachers that make it a lifelong career.

@Freedompath >I once knew people who’s only reading material was the Bible...every night! I've known them as well. However what they **also** read are the daily devotionals which cite scripture and explain how to understand the scripture. After that, they look up the scriptures in their own bible to see if the devotionals misquoted the scriptures as well as to see if there is more in a larger context. It's common for them not to read the whole thing. My mother thought she'd the **whole** bible to her young sons. When she got to gory parts (i.e. ripping unborn children out the wombs of pregnant women), she set the bible down convinced it wasn't suitable for children. She never tried to read the whole thing again. Bible reading for the faithful is largely cherry picking verses.

Many sophists specialized in using the tools of philosophy and rhetoric, though other sophists taught subjects such as music, athletics, and mathematics." I'm old and I've taught in school but I don't date back to the 5 BCE.

@slydr68 Key word: "perfect." I remember one woman in her 40's said she didn't want any sexually experienced guys -- only the virgins. A frequent thing I hear in here is women who only want guys who come up to their high standards because they've been disappointed or divorced before. They don't want to settle for anything less than perfect. They're going to be lonesome tonight.

@Marionville >There are probably more Scots words used than you think... I figure that is how it works in Scotland. One of my favorite native born Scotsman (now a naturalized American) Greg Fergison, says even he has trouble understanding some of his country men. One of his funniest segments on TV was a pair of Scotsmen trying to get voice commands to work on an elevator. (They weren't successful). >As far as I can tell Americans are falling over themselves to claim Scottish or Irish ancestry... In the US St. Patty's day everybody is is Irish because it's as good a day to the hit the bar as Cinco de Mayo. We observe both holidays more than either the Irish or the Mexicans. Most Americans don't have valid passports because they don't have either a desire to go abroad or the money to do it. The cost of getting across the ocean is a chill for those who do want to see the world. A lot of people came to the US because the US looked lot better than where they were living. I find that amazing because being sent to colonial America was pretty close to a death sentence. Colonies were considered successful in the second year if a third of them were still alive. A good percentage of Irish Americans came here during the potato famine. When half the town is buried because of famine, America starts to look **really** good. Here in Gringo land, we're not known for famines. We're better known for obesity.

@t1nick >Your example is absurd and you are just a sophist who just likes to argue for the sake of being contrary. It is so absurd that nobody is introducing uncommon words in Hindu or Swahili. Your argument is based on interjecting **European** words in some publications makes sense. It doesn't. It means when the author can't think of way of saying it in English, he has to drag in some **European** word for his English speaking audience. If that was a good idea, why not throw a few Swahili words in an opus? Maybe something in Arabic? From this you are trying to be insulting by questioning my motives by saying " . . . you are just a sophist who just likes to argue." Us sophisticated ruffians want to know what's wrong with a civil argument? There's no shooting going on in one of those things. >That is your assumption not that held by others on here. There was a meeting, a poll and a study to prop up your claim? Your invalid argument is whatever is popular has to be right. Under that reasoning since for most of human history the unlettered masses claimed the world was flat, it must be so. I'm fond of saying eight million Germans can't be wrong. I'm considering changing that to *somebody voted for Trump.* *If it's popular it must be right* is an awful argument. If that reason true in a Christian nation, is it a good excuse to convert?

@Marionville Scottish words are so rarely heard in the states even when I head into towns primarily settled by Scots, I don't hear any Scottish words. However, I have visited towns in Texas where the locals speak in Germans because that's what settled the town. Likewise, when visiting Miami I'm prone to hear a lot of Spanish spoken. Considering what I've seen, the Scots settling here in the states want to forget all about Scotland. Now can anyone translate this sign I found in a Mexican restaurant?

WonderWartHog99 replies on Jul 28, 2019:

Odd you should say that. Therefore I clicked on Google translation and got in Spanish: Definitions of qué conjunction 1 Introduce una oración que desempeña la misma función que puede desempeñar un nombre. "le gusta que la peinen; deseo que vengas; lo ha hecho sin que nadie lo ayude; sintió una imperiosa necesidad de que alguien lo escuchara ." 2 Introduce el segundo término de una comparación de superioridad o inferioridad. "es más bueno que su hermano; esta silla es menos cómoda que aquella; nadie es mejor que tú; no eres ni la mitad de listo que ella ." 3 En correlación con tan y otros elementos intensificativos, introduce una oración en la que se indica la consecuencia de lo que se expresa. "iba tan despacio que llegó tarde; habla tan rápido que nadie le entiende ." 4 Introduce una oración en la que se ofrece una explicación con matiz causal. "ya verás como lo hace, que ha prometido hacerlo; confía en mí, que no te voy a engañar; vete, que llegarás tarde ." 5 Introduce una oración en la que se ofrece una explicación sobre la finalidad de algo. "habla más bajo, que no nos vayan a oír; apártense, que todo el mundo pueda ver el pizarrón ." 6 Introduce una oración en la que se ofrece una explicación o una aclaración. "justicia pido, que no piedad; suya es la culpa, que no mía; le dijo a Lourdes, que así se llama su hija, que viniera ." 7 Introduce oraciones exclamativas que expresan deseo, orden o sugerencia. "¡que se calle todo el mundo!; que alguien cierre la puerta, por favor ." 8 Introduce oraciones exclamativas que expresan decepción. "¡que a mis años me tenga que ver así!" 9 Precedido y seguido del mismo verbo en forma personal, indica insistencia o reiteración. "estuvimos charla que charla toda la tarde; era un cabezota, y siempre estaba dale que dale ." 10 Se combina con una preposición, adverbio o participio para introducir las circunstancias, hechos, etc., que estos indican. "antes que, después que, hasta que, para que, visto que, a pesar de que ." pronoun 1 Introduce una oración en la que se indican ciertas características del nombre al que dicha oración complementa. "la casa que nos hemos comprado es muy grande; ya le hemos mandado la carta que le escribimos ." adjective 1 Introduce preguntas sobre objetos o cosas concretas o abstractas. "¿qué libro estás leyendo?; ¿qué ciudad es aquella?; ¿en qué hotel te alojas?; no sé qué haré durante estas vacaciones; dime qué quieres que compre ." 2 Con un nombre, adjetivo o adverbio, introduce oraciones exclamativas que ponderan positiva o negativamente. "¡qué bello es ese cuadro!; ¡qué día más horrible!; ¡qué mal me encuentro!" Ergo my question to you: Qué quieres decir.

There are plenty of words that have been adopted into **current English usage.** Once it's noted that it **isn't** used in English, I skip the post entirely.
