I assume so aye. I have even used it myself in speech and forum posts (I think ... difficult to pin down) but as a colloquialism. I think, to be entirely honest, it's something I picked up from forums :P I remember being very uncomfortable with it at one time. Really grated on my nerves, but then you read it so often it loses its sting.

I always thought of exact and same as two different parameters, like accurate and precise. One says whether you've hit the target at all, the other says how small your arrow was.

yeah, but it's a corruption of 'exactly the same'.

I keep hearing in my head every time I see this thread "I am disappoint" :blush:

hahahahaahahah. Now so will I lol

It's not the size of the arrow but whether you can find the target and then hit it. Repeatedly. But not too hard at first and not too fast, either. It helps to have lots of arrows, too.

So I'm told.

Meanwhile, back on topic, I'm figuratively going to have to literally change my game plan, via a via educating my kids to my satisfication.

Vis a vis

Ducking tapatalk

maybe if we all adopt that phrasing for a few months they'll change the dictionary to include via a via.

I like your 'can do' attitude.

This should be in the NSFW thread, seriously.

Irregardless, this thread had been invaluable to me.

I like it when auto correct changes fucking to ducking. Quack!

I used to be disgusted, now I try to be amused

Did you take that? That looks like Bed Bath and Beyond.

edit: and for some reason I've got Elvis Costello going around in my brain.

Yes, I took this at a dollar store kind of place on Sunday.
