Cumberbatch's character in Imitation Game was not much for hypocorisms; Turing was on the Asperger spectrum and a homosexual to boot.

"Jorge Bergoglio is more liberal than some propose." Indeed.

Hypercorism must then be when your full, formal names are used (such as when you were scolded by your parents – including the middle name ;-)

My MIL and I got into a heated discussion about the pope and liberalism. She is adamant that the pope is misunderstood and liberalism is wonderful. I do believe senility is setting in. I wanted to ask her each and every question....is abortion ok? homosexual marriage? wealth redistribution? and see just where she stands, but I couldn’t bring myself to do that to an old lady.

you are sainted to put up with that, I would be sorely tested. I know that one has to endure things for family, and I thank God that mine, xshub’s and xsteen’s are all on the same page.

Romney needs to read the tea leaves and sit down. Hopefully even if Jeb takes on front runner status early on, other, more conservative voices will prevail. Why is Murdoch loving up on ValJar anyway? tool of iran.

It is sunny and 52 here-the customer’s patio and gazebo are almost done-we will do finishing touches tomorrow. The customer loves it, but I think it is garish-it makes my teeth itch-but the customer is always right...

I wonder if Michelle Obama
Uses hypocorism when trying
To get OUR money from Idiot
For the stuff she’s buying?

Or maybe she just turns him
Upside down and gives a shake-
When his wallet is on the floor
She grabs all the cash, to take

A trip to a designer who says
She’s as pretty as she can be
And sells her a hideous dress
That’s too pricey for you and me...

Where I come from, being told you are as pretty as you can be is code for overweight, overdone and tasteless...

Your patience is saintly-living around so many who think as I do these last 10 years has made me intolerant of liberalspeak-I can’t even talk about that stuff with the cub since she allowed herself to be brainwashed by liberal professors-I’m afraid I will say I should have given more thought to an abortion...

And he sits on a throne made of the skulls of his enemies too.

And I asked google, and since they are a front for the NSA, they would know: Who sits on a throne made of the skulls of his enemies? and they came back with Scott Walker.

I would think there could not be higher praise for a candidate for president!

I also think that is high praise-not something that could be said about Romney or Jeb...

If I were Hillary, with all the dirt on Bengazi being dug up, I’d be on a binge too...

She’ll run a presidential campaign the same way she ran her senate campaign. She will answer NO questions she doesn’t like and she will insulate herself. Why make appearances when you are the front runner? She is gaff prone, so she is sitting tight. Or she’s either drunk or getting a facelift.
