As a horror movie fan it always tickle me when I hear this term- "Undead".
It's usually used to describe zombies, vampires, etc. If you're undead you're alive right? :lol:

However, you can redeem your good (cough) name by quickly following these simple instructions:

1.Take a moment to visit Page 1, Post 1 of this thread.
2. Read the first post again.
3. Pay particular attention to the definition of "Oxymoron". Repeat reading the definition until thoroughly understood. Read the example and memorize it.
4. If you're still having trouble with it, see the quote below (no peeking).
5. Try your post again, with TWO words, instead of one. :)

And it's Ok if you use "Military Intelligence". Really. We understand.

Oxymorons

Def:
A phrase including two or more words that effectively cancel each other.

Example: the old standby "Military Intelligence"

You saying he's...

Post by :FI:Heloego » Thu Jan 17, 2008 7:44 pm

...impotent?

Maybe AB should dress impotent, too. ;)


Unless he's a catcher, which would change everything...


Though I very much hesitate to picture AB in a camisole. :roll:
