blafferty It's my fault for requesting such tasty umbrage. Poor punderscore has been hiding under a porch somewhere and hasn't had any for so long.
Oo, I've been craving fufluns! Thanks! Mar 20, 2012
reesetee *offers fufluns in place of purloined umbrage* Mar 15, 2012
PossibleUnderscore *takes umbrage*

ruzuzu I try to be a good host. Mar 14, 2012
blafferty I would love some, thanks for asking. Toasted, please, with just a little cheese and garlic.
You know you're in the right place when umbrage is offered, rather than having to be taken. Mar 14, 2012
ruzuzu Blafferty, would you care for some umbrage? Mar 13, 2012
blafferty Anyone who uses the word sinister is bigoted toward lefties, I think. Mar 13, 2012
ruzuzu Better than welts from caning. But don't forget: Spare the rod, spoil the food. Nov 17, 2011
madmouth the mark of Can? Nov 17, 2011
fbharjo If you can it , does it become a biont? Nov 12, 2011
sionnach No matter what one thinks about reduplicative canning (and I am not altogether swayed by rolig's loopy, though delightful, logic), classifying canning as sinful seems like a slippery logical slope. Because then canting would necessarily be a virtue, and decanting would be a sin. Which would mean that every time I decanted the port I would be flirting with damnation. Harsh.
On the trigonometric front, if we are to make moral value judgements about sining, where does that leave cosining and tanning. Are we to denounce all those working in the leather industry, or anyone who cosines a loan? No, I'm not buying it. Nov 12, 2011

fbharjo How about sin(e)ing? There is no wave-off! Nov 11, 2011
rolig But can-canning (i.e. reduplicative canning) and sinning may, in fact, be related. Allow me to cite Irving Berlin: "She started a heat wave by letting her seat wave in such a way that the customers say she certainly can can-can." Here the "heat wave" caused by the can-canning of the woman in the lyric is, clearly, a not-so-subtle reference to what one may argue is, at least, a pre-sinning state or even, to be sure, a sinning one, if we accept the Gospel dictum that lustful thoughts are themselves sinful. Hence, reduplicative canning may in fact possess a relation of causality with regard to non-reduplicative sinning. Nov 11, 2011
ruzuzu I knew you were going to say that. Nov 11, 2011
sionnach But canning and sinning are two quite different activities! Nov 11, 2011
fbharjo How about the spelling of a 'canister for sinister'?
Can it be a right rite - being a left bet?
A correct erect?
Does she have it straight?
Is she a switch-speller? Nov 10, 2011
ruzuzu *creates a word that means having the ability to spell everything correctly*
*decides it would be funnier not to use it* Nov 10, 2011
rolig But I don't think you can parse it that way. And why would you want to? Obviously, omnipotence and omniscience are not equivalent; they are different concepts. The question is, does one presume the other? Nov 10, 2011
leaden Note that omnipotence further implies responsibility for everything, which leads directly to the topic implied by the title of this page, e.g., the problem of pain.
Wait a minute . . . . Is this turning into a panel discussion? Curse you, yarb! Nov 10, 2011
leaden I agree, rolig, that omnipotence implies (at least the capacity for) omniscience. The converse, however, is false. (Consider Cassandra.) Ruzuzu's statement, parsed as claiming the two ain't equivalent, therefore still stands. Nov 10, 2011
rolig I beg to differ. If knowledge is a form of power, then omnipotence -- the possession of all power -- must include omniscience -- the power of knowing all. Nov 10, 2011
ruzuzu Omnipotent ain't omniscient.
Would you care for a food pellet? Nov 10, 2011
sionnach Can Ruzuzu invent a word that Ruzuzu can't spell? Hmmmm? Nov 10, 2011
