Jean in Newcastle Posted October 16, 2015 Share Posted October 16, 2015 Jean, what's your diet like? Zone diet. Fruit, vegetables, lean meats. No grains (though the Zone diet technically allows some). I realized that I have some leftover not-so-stupid chicken stir fry. I'll have that instead. I like salads. Just not every single day . . . . 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Susan in TN Posted October 16, 2015 Share Posted October 16, 2015 He was probably right. People use "thus" all the time when they should use "hence". Or rather, just use the more conventional, but admittedly less abbreviated, non-archaic English for maximum comprehension in the first place. Yes, but would you interrupt a conversation between two people you didn't know having a conversation you didn't care about to correct their word usage? And then give a look that indicated you were God's gift to the poor uneducated masses? 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Susan in TN Posted October 16, 2015 Share Posted October 16, 2015 Well, when I just looked up "thus," the definition provided by the all-knowing Gooooooooooogle had "in this way" as the secondary definition, and "consequently/for that reason" as the primary, so I have decided, and consequently so it must be, that: 1) it depends on which dictionary you use 2) popular usage defines a language, and things fall in and out of fashion, rendering your grandma's rules archaic 3) transposing them is not the same as comprise/compose, because even MW has the third definition of THUS as "because of this or that: HENCE, CONSEQUENTLY" so :001_tt2: However, I will defer to Queen Ellie and if she tells me I have to use Hence instead of Thus, I will. #h in both My New Lexicon Webster's defines "thus" 1. In this way, and 2. For this reason I will endeavor to forthwith use both words with the most obscurely defined usage as possible. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Slache Posted October 16, 2015 Share Posted October 16, 2015 The bills are paid, we have a little grocery money, and I ordered the Bible Study Guide For All Ages stuff because it was from a hive member and I didn't want to keep her waiting. We also pulled off Erin's birthday gift and my dad hopes to get the bunk beds for my man as a birthday gift. If we can make an extra $300 by next month we should be in the clear and back on track until the next catastrophe. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
