Am I crossing a line if I want certain people to be pinched in the ear, painfully?

All political violence is wrong!

What did you eat today?

Nothing too early to eat, I’d be nauseous.

Who is this impostor and what did they do with the real @Wadtucket

Hey I was wondering, having noticed the difference in tribe names in places like Oklahoma compared to Canada and the North. Do you have anything I can read about where tribes got their name and it's basic geographically?

You going to leggo the preggo or are you keeping it?

I don't study language, but there are tons of resources for that kind of thing. I will say, though, that you're dealing with at least 2 immediate and separate issues: what tribes call themselves, and what other people (French, American, etc) named them. The Nez Perce, for example, are actually the Niimiipu (my spelling might be off there).
I can hook you up with resources that track tribal language grouping, but my knowledge of the subject is very limited.

Good question. Along these lines, I'd also like to know if it's okay to wish death on a somebody, but only by natural causes well into their 90s.

He's the Epstein of our forum, except he's broke

We'll see we'll see the winner gets the tea

And a free trip on Barry Express to BarryDiddlin Island

I don't get this. Are you implying something?

 

[Limbo Pete]

Wishing for death is a bit much for me

I'll settle for hoping my enemies step in garbage can juice while wearing fresh socks

We learned some of it in school but mostly about the "five civilized tribes". I'm just curious as to how each nations language developed. I remember reading that when Anglo colonists came to the US the Natives were basically living a post apocalyptic lifestyle in comparison to the pre-spanish influence.

That's something I wish was taught more in American history because I'm woefully uninformed on the history of America before Plymouth Rock.

So any literature you can forward over I'd love to read it. Btw you going to drop some knowledge in the Columbus thread or nah?

Naaaah. I specifically avoid dropping knowledge in threads like that lol. Well, most of the time. Tbh there's nowhere for me to go in there but down into the filthy slime with all the ignorant rabble. And I'm secure enough in my own understanding of indigenous history, which is immense compared to most people, that I don't need to flex. Just a recipe for pissing myself off. The mascot thread is way worse for me, though, just because that issue boils my fucking blood.

I'm about to pass out at the moment, but i'll hook you up with some reading later today.

He's referring to Seano's defense of the prick who fired a shotgun at a black kid who merely asked him for directions after missing the bus and getting lost while walking to school (it was not a straightforward route). It was completely indefensible, but Seano reasoned both that the homeowner should conclude that the kid is trying to rob him, and that it's okay to try to murder him by shooting him in the back as he runs off.

Could've said it much differently to make that point.

Who is this impostor and what did they do with the real @Wadtucket

We were all bamboozled by the likes, bud. Like a seemingly great looking pair of tits, and then the bra comes off and it's all over.

Precisely lol

Man, I hope i'm never such a disappointment that someone compares me to Neve Campbell's tits

Well sure . . . depending on the situation and what folks can get away with posting.
