The vocabulary. Especially in some recent posts! Mrs Bergan, my 10th grade English teacher would be so proud of us all!

Mackay, could you illustrate with examples, please? I am not sure whether this is praise or deep irony, though I'm told that the Americans don't do irony.

Oh,

Little things like odious, vapid, unconscionable. Nothing erudite, arcane or abstruse, mind you. Just above average vocabularies that allow for more exacting expression of thoughts and feelings.

I dunno; just delights me a bit, somehow. Makes me think I'm talking to really intelligent people. Am I easily impressed?

"Mackay"? ;-D

I know it's hard to spell.

Just call me Max.

Consider it a step towards my coming out.

Irony? Hell no, I'm American. I don't know the meaning of the word.
