Good things Trump has done as President

[two sheds]

We didn't want to interfere with the greater good of continuing to mock him.

Eta: I was replying as one of our language experts - not a pedant which you sneakily snuck in as I was replying

 

[SheilaNaGig]

It’s been chafing at me for a few months now.

But now that I see it being an assumed neologism, I don’t want Ttump to get credit for it. He didn’t invent this word. He accidentally revived it. And not by volition or intention. Just by being crap.

 

[maomao]

I knew it was a real word and tutted every time anyone used it already but hadn't heard the recording where he clearly didn't say it before.

 

[SheilaNaGig]

Covfefe
he can have the credit for that.

I knew you’d have an expert reaction to this

He’s sneaky, eh.

And me - you should have known I'd have an expert reaction to this too

 

[SheilaNaGig]

Goes without saying two sheds . Self evident, mate.

 

[Streathamite]

I’m very reluctant to do this because the “bigly” thing is just so good.



But...



Not only is bigly a real word....

Is Bigly A Real Word? Surprise!

Bigly is a word popularly believed to have been made up and used by US President Donald Trump, meaning "to a large amount" or "with great intensity.

Who, What, Why: Did Donald Trump use the word ‘bigly’?

The Republican candidate appeared to use an unusual adverb in his debate against Hillary Clinton. Or did he?

www.bbc.com

It’s not actually what he was saying.

Yes, Trump Really Is Saying ‘Big League,’ Not ‘Bigly,’ Linguists Say (Published 2016)

An unusual turn of phrase, combined with Donald Trump’s unique pronunciation of it, has confused, and amused, listeners.

Trump ends debate on ‘bigly’ vs. ‘big league’

“Bigly” was a top-trending word on Google during the final presidential debate.

Why You Hear Trump’s ‘Big League’ As ‘Bigly’

The candidate, and your brain, is making shortcuts.

You really have ruined our fun there.
Bet you were teacher's pet in school.

 

[SheilaNaGig]

I wasn’t teachers pet. I was the surly one at the back scoring band names into the desk top with my compass point, picking holes in my school uniform and painting my legs with copydex. Which is how come I ended up on Urban in the middle of the afternoon rather than doing something useful with my life.




I really am quite genuinely regretful about this truth-telling

The best thing trump has done as president is #tinydesk

 

[Dogsauce]

Odds on he’s now smashed that desk in a rage.

I think that desk could beat him in a fight.

Bizarrely, Trump has apparently fired Henry Kissinger: Trump administration removes experts from Defense Policy Board. I guess that counts.

Yeah, Trump does get an extra point for firing Kissinger, two points if he personally informed him he was fired, and five points if he called him a shitty 100-year-old war criminal, moving him up to a maximum -995 points on a scale of 1 to 10.

He’ll get a few more if he’s infected him with Covid. Fingers crossed.

 

[Choc]

he hasn't started a new war!

 

[ginger_syn]

Not yet, there's time

Trump was instrumental in getting Covid vaccine in record time.

Innit.

And he’s feeling cheated of his second term.

So many plans, thwarted!

Oh fuck of now Marty

You’re like that annoying bloke at the pub who pretends to be a human being

 

[Raheem]

Remains to be seen, TBF.

 

[weltweit]

To be fair to Trump I liked the way he wanted to bring manufacturing jobs back from China / Mexico etc, though the way he went about it with things like tariffs just made imported goods more expensive for US consumers so perhaps that was a bit of an own goal. Anyhow he kept banging the drum for US manufacturing and shaming companies like Apple who farm out manufacturing while not paying much in the way of US taxes.

I’ll say thank you when you deliver my parcle, but as for the rest.

I wonder who your gf really is. What is she like in her own life that she chooses you.

I know this is unkind but I don't actually care. And I doubt that you do either. You seem that zombie like rubbish.

It’s the way you demonstrate zero curiosity about anything outside your own meme-o-sphere, zero intention for investigation , that puts you beyond the pale for me.

Because capitalism.

 

[weltweit]

Because capitalism.

Yes, but it is more to do with globalisation and the removal of trade barriers - which tbf the USA has been all for in previous administrations. Now they see Apple electronics being made in China and American cars made in Mexico while Detroit suffers unemployment.

I love you weltweit but your naivety is kinda annoying.

You’ve been on urban for aaaagesand you’re still not getting it.

So what are you going to do about that Marty1 ?

You say but you act

You choose to be on here, so you’re either deliberately and provocatively maintaining this particular mindset; or you’re curious about alternatives. Or maybe you’re just an arse.

Which is it?

The general consensus here is that you’re a proven provocative bigoted arsehole.

If that’s not the case, you’re running out of time to indicate anything else.


Tick tick, tick tock.

Recalibrate or fuck off

 

[SheilaNaGig]

Blimey.

I didn’t remember making these posts til I saw them just now. I was obviously feeling ornery on Saturday night.

Apologies for hurt feelings.
