The Tender For Law

English Only

ENGLISH is the international language of law and commerce. Knowing FRENCH is useful for understanding LEGAL ENGLISH, but FRENCH is not the international language of law and commerce, so we will ignore French speakers who speak to us in the language of a conquered people.

Non.

I understand that you are a proud Québécois, but the people here have nothing but contempt for you because of decades of transfer payments and NONE OF YOU understanding what Quebec sovereignty means. None of you know who Russell Rogers Smith is, and you're too proud and arrogant to teach. Just go away and be Retardier somewhere else.

Eyepods are cool: I have one that holds my glass eye aloft. Well, not exactly an Eyepod, it's a trEYEpod mini.

Some persons just doesn't get the idea that it is a headache trying to decipher(why isn't it decypher???) or maybe I should say decrypt, some of the things that people type up. You may think that you put in some effort in writing, but if people have to struggle to understand what you are writing, you are a failure as a writer. Isn't there a maxim: "Seek first to understand, then to be understood"? Pretty sure bad writing proves failure on both points. Nor is it respectful to the reader.

P.S. person(s) and people were not chosen arbitrarily.
