This thread in a nutshell, acted out by random pictures I uploaded off my desktop.
: My icon is l33t and talks about the English language stealing vocabulary.
: The English language did not steal words.
: What about 'raccoon' or 'schadenfreude'?: The English language had words THRUST UPON IT. If you knew what I knew about the English language and medieval times, you'd understand that.
: I think we have kind of a lot of foreign words, actually...: Let me repeat my opinion a few times with copy/paste, you obviously don't get it.
: How about 'canoe'?: *Cries at being misunderstood* You're all stupid. STUPID.
Yes, see, littlelamb (represented above by the creepy cat) feels strongly offended at the implication (in crazycatlady's icon) that the English language may have stolen words and feels that it is necessary that we know that.
In copious and repeating detail.
Over several hundred comments.
Including a few copy/pastes, just in case you missed her argument the first time. Not that you'll be capable of following it.
And if you don't get that, you're a moron.
Of course, people (ironically, everyone except the owner of said icon) can't stop poking her over it, either.
Eventually, we get to accusations of stupidity and ::ACTIONED!:: crying. And it's all good.
