    To 'rave' can mean to be enthusiastic about something, or to be angry (yes, i looked it up, to confirm).

    So i guess you can swing either way in this


    The purpose of this thread is to offer an alternative to the whine-bitch-moan RAAAANT thread.


    In other words , practically every other thread on the forum . Kaboom , irony causes universe to implode .

    I doubt that the creators of 'every other thread on the forum' take the RANT thread into account when creating theirs; though, I could be wrong. Either way, ironic? Or simply unrelated?

    No matter, after a tough week of dealing with irrational, irresponsible parents, I had a fun time supervising students with their Hallowe'en decorating contest this afternoon.

    Through your redundancy, you have moved a step closer to your true, unlimited self. Fact.

    OK , I believe I am starting to understand the difference now. Sometimes I don't have a clue as to what you guys are talking about (blame my poor education in English language).

    What I DO know is that I am redundant in many ways. Which feels great. This allowes me to be more of a RAAAAAAAVE!!!! person than a RAAAAAAANTTTTTT!!! person. Like that very much. ;-)

    By redundancy I just meant that I really like Hallowe'en.

    Hooray!  So does that mean I'm redundant (jk)?

    There's enough redundancy for everyone.

    DAMN. I misunderstood you there. For a moment I thought I would come closer to my true, unlimited self by making myself redundant... ;-)

    I sure hope you are not offended, Iuventus.  It's just we are having such fun with the term "redundant"!  I don't know why, but it truly caught me in my funny bone.  That doesn't partcularly mean what I"m writing is amusing, though I hope so.

    For anyone unfamiliar with this, there is a well know English expression "rant and rave" which means something like "shout and complain angrily and at length."

    So I guess we could technically rant here too! (Just joking, I know it is meant to be an alternative to the Rant thread)

    @Jeronimoo: You might find this interesting. The origin of rant is Dutch i.e.
    ranten - late 16th century (in the sense 'behave boisterously').

    Or so I'm lead to believe.

    I hope that you die in a decent pair of shoes
    You got a lot more walking to do where you're going to.

    My picture of Raaaanttttt and Raaaaaave is getting clearer and clearer, Arch. Though the "Dutch" word ranten doesn't mean anything to me (but then again, I don't live in the late 16th century).

    But thanks to Whick I now know something else: people have a Funny Bone. I didn't know that, but will look for mine from now on. Like that thought. ;-)
