Nor do I, but when some Asian friends put out a dish of lungs on their buffet table, some of the other folks at their gatherings will lunge for that item.

That's good to know that I can expect less traffic as I lunge away, hoping to find a planter or nearby restroom to do my gagging in private!

Let's see - we've had lung, lunge - still missing lounge, louche, long & a handful of others.

Lungs as food might be OK - I'd be willing to give 'em a try - as long as the critters grew up in the far north somewhere, preferably the Artic Circle. If they grew up in an agricultural mega-shed of some kind - crowded, dirty, polluted, (in US feedlots, they're typically fed antibiotics to bulk them up - muscle mass - faster - a side effect, but this use of massive amounts of antibiotics in US food animals is the leading money-maker for big Pharma, I think - & one of the main reasons it's so hard to reduce antibiotic use in the US food stream) - then no, their lungs capture, I'm sure, the particles of fecal bits ground underhoof & floating about in the air.

Instead of families building wealth and prosperity, business, acquiring property and passing it down to their future generations offering them stability like it should be they have created a nation of shiftless and confused people who think that keeping up with the Jones via 'education' and corporatism is the what success is. Even Orson Welles new that.

The issue is less liberals get married so they get divorced less.


Come on you guys get offended at a drop of a hate and scurry to court like rats.

In addition to the obvious problems with grammar, spelling, and syntax, I think that the person who composed that gem had problems identifying exactly which "Wells" he/she was discussing. I strongly suspect that, instead of Orson Welles, he/she meant to refer to H.G. Wells.

All I can tell from the Welles/Wells quote is that evidently a little bit of knowledge (and a little bit of grammar) just might be more dangerous than none at all.

With less learning and more common sense the poster may have realized he/she didn't know enough to expound on a subject they obviously know nothing about.

Sadly, freedom of speech implies freedom to say anything stupid no matter how poor the grammar, how defective the logic, and how ill informed the person is.

I can't even tell what the hell the post is all about. One thing for sure though, while it may have served no useful purpose where it was posted, but it eventually found a good home (here).

If nothing else, at least the post is useful as a bad example!
