Perhaps DC Entertainment just understand the (non glue-related) meaning of tacky?

Sometimes people just need to be protected from their total lack of taste. Bloody oiks.

Here we have A.K. "Skid" Marc (the somnolent stoplight running lardass) failing even to do a link properly. And doing it as AC, for shame.

Now here's how to do it properly:

"So rather than being needlessly wordy, treasure trove is the etymologically complete phrase, misconstrued over time [by stupid fat idiots] as a noun-noun compound rather than a noun followed by an adjective. "

Love how your cite proves how retarded you are. The noun there is treasure.

You can't just chop a stock phrase in half and assume that either bit has the same meaning as the original. Do you sit on a longue eating a brulée?

Strictly speaking, trove is an adjective. You cannot have "a trove" any more than you can have "a yellow" or "a miniscule".

What kind of laptop runs on 3.7 volts?

I wasn't aware that a non-removable battery constitutes sneakiness and trickery.

Well there you go. You'd hardly expect them to tell you, would you?

I am fucking up your UI. Pray I do not fuck it up further.

8 bits per byte... we could have each finger represent a bit, on or off.

66.

Thankfully, still version 2.xx

... including, at times, itself.

It seems more likely that if you want to use a gun to kill yourself, you will buy one.

You've had a shit day at the office, so you set off for the gun store, and on the way there you start to calm down, and there's a nice sunset so you turn round and go home, have a few beers and fall asleep. Then in the morning you go "shit, what was I thinking?"

You've had a shit day at the office, so you pull the gun out from under the pillow and shoot yourself with it.

Which is better? Which is more likely?

All I did was float around the Big Pond (East coast) in Uncle Sam's Yacht Club DURING the Vietnam era.

I don't know why you call it the big pond, it's smaller than the one on the other side.

Still, you were maintaining a state of preparedness & covering the other flank in case the Frogs, Limeys or Krauts got up to something.

There's a metal for those wounded in combat

Usually it's lead. Though it might be cold steel.
