Word For The Day, Tuesday, September 7, 2010
In order that we might all raise the level of discourse and expand our language abilities, here is the daily post of "Word for the Day".
animadversion [an-uh-mad-vur-zhuhn, -shuhn]
-n
1. an unfavorable or censorious comment
2. the act of criticizing
[1590–1600; < L animadversiōn- (s. of animadversiō ) a heeding, censure, equiv. to animadvers ( us ) (ptp. of animadvertere to heed, censure; see animadvert) + -iōn- -ion]
And aRINOadversion would be being allergic to RINOs
good one!
are you still in La Espana? or are you back home for good?
At home for most of July and August.
Scheduled for some more from mid-October and November - likely extending into Dec. Have used up the year’s hours, so any extra hours worked between now and Dec 31 are extra dollars.
what do you mean “used up the year’s hours”? i am sure you are working pretty much 12 hour days when you are working. does that mean you have been home and not needing to go into the ofc/work station for july-august? i am glad you have been able to be home with your family. the travel for protracted periods has to be very difficult.
Forgive me if I cast an aspersion
On Obama, an animadversion
Though his rhetoric’s grand
What he’s done to our land
To our freedom, is truly perversion
Well aren’t dogs considered filthy animals in Islam?
that is a fact but it is absolutely irrelevant to this phrase. this phrase is commonly used and has nothing to do with muslims whatsoever. that would be like insinuating some slam on jews by using the phrase BRINGING HOME THE BACON! good grief!
Most of the sane world has an Ahmadinejadversion to the smelly little dictator of Iran...
Bananas.
B-A-N-A-N-A-S
He either means that he himself, or the project on which he is working have used up the budgetary hours allotted for this time period. So any more hours worked are at a premium rate and not covered under the original terms of the contract.
so he is gonna clean house financially? that’s what i figured. good for robt.
i see you in a cheerleading suit waving pompoms saying that!
A male or female outfit?
umm... sorry, i see a skirt... ; )
