in reply to The boy who cried...

Could somebody who has an idea about what the f*ck this thread is about please clue me in? Please?

OK, Wikipedia tells me that 'Hoale' is 'a term used in the U.S. state of Hawaii to refer to individuals of European ancestry, in contrast to those of native Hawaiian ancestry', while a google-translate of '고추장' suggests that it is Korean for 'red pepper'...

... and then a SuperSearch for 'social reform' comes up with a single node, namely Anonymonk's post in this thread, which seems to negate the point s/he is trying to make (or does it?).

I'm sorry, but, as the French saying goes, 'je comprends vite, mais il faut m'expliquer longuement'.

Replies are listed 'Best First'.

    I won't speak for Your Mother nor claim to. What I read is:

    This is a contentious topic, but to go ahead and tackle it if that's the intent of the thread. There's no need to be vague, because we can handle the specifics. On the other hand, trolled threads tend to get sorted without discussing who is a troll and who isn't. Trying to put labels to it and set standards for it just exacerbates the frustration because there's never going to be a single accepted standard in a community as disparate as ours.

    I'm not entirely sure I read Your Mother's response quite right. There is a lot of symbolism there. I think it's a reasonable translation into more literal words, given some license.

    For what it's worth, I would tend to agree with what I think Your Mother said.

      Holy cats, I’m eloquent! :P

        "...I’m eloquent!"

        I'm a bit unsure about this - in this case ;-)

        But there is nothing wrong with vagueness.

        I suggest that you take a look at the so called tristan chord as an a good example in music, as food for though.

        I think that trying to encircle a problem of any kind always implies some vagueness (in the meaning of "Unschärfe").

        And i think the OP is aware of this. Else he would have been more precise.

        Regards, Karl

        P.S.: "These pants fit fine." made me smile. In German we say "Jeder zieht sich das Jäckchen an das ihm passt."

    Yes, yes. Look upon my works, ye Monkies, and despair! My work here is just bedone. The social order is brought in line with the newly infiltrated sock-puppet army’s propagandist objectives. We have won. Dissent is squashed, Hail Hydra!
