Malcador Posted January 26, 2017 Share Posted January 26, 2017 I find it funny that guys who claim they work 9 to 5 and all they get in result is more debt are criticizing a billionaire for a few failed projects. Well, those failures by the billionaire may impact more people due to scope. And what's wrong with expecting more from your leaders? Why has elegance found so little following?

Zoraptor Posted January 26, 2017 Share Posted January 26, 2017 (edited) I don't think anyone would cite Saudi Arabia as a beacon of border security- their Great Wall is on paper, and if it's manned by Saudis won't be at all effective no matter its construction. Meanwhile, shoeless Houthis are still wandering around southern Saudi watching the Saudi border guards panic and run whenever shot at and blowing up a comical amount of advanced gear, including Abrams.

No, if he spelled it "foolproof", it would only be proofed from you. You know what fool is? It’s a naive person, someone who lacks good judgment. As you can imagine, a fool would be easily tricked by a clever ruse. Proof is an adjective that means “able to withstand, or invulnerable.” When you combine the two terms, you get foolproof. This adjective means “involving no risk or harm, or never-failing.” In other words, something foolproof would still work even if a fool were operating it. What is more, the fool would be safe in his work. You also probably know what full means. So what is fullproof? You can look up the definition of full in the dictionary. You can easily find the definition of proof. What you won’t find is the answer to that question. Fullproof is not in the dictionary. ... Foolproof means infallible, or so simple or well-made that nothing can go wrong. It’s synonyms are reliable, sure, guaranteed, and flawless. There’s no such word as fullproof. source Obviously the same is true for its hyphenated form. "Full proof" (note the space) exists, but it's not an adjective.

Nonek Posted January 26, 2017 Share Posted January 26, 2017 Reminds me of an old joke: An Englishman, Irishman and Scotsman find a genie in a lamp, it grants each of them a wish: The Scotsman asks for a Hadrian's Wall to be rebuilt on the borders, but a thousand feet high with no entrances or exits. The Englishman offended asks for that wall to surround all of England so that Johnny Foreigner can't get in. The Irishman nodding along the whole time asks for the walled enclave to be filled with water. 4 Quite an experience to live in misery isn't it? That's what it is to be married with children.I've seen things you people can't even imagine. Pearly Kings glittering on the Elephant and Castle, Morris Men dancing 'til the last light of midsummer. I watched Druid fires burning in the ruins of Stonehenge, and Yorkshiremen gurning for prizes. All these things will be lost in time, like alopecia on a skinhead. Time for tiffin. Tea for the teapot!
