    'Coz that's kind of a phrase at this stage....

    I'll correct it if it's wrong.....

    If a word doesn't exist, and you think it should, you can just add it, like I did with quorange. :D

    Soliloquy and Dissolute

    I dont know why but the combination reminds me of The Novel "An Artist of the Floating World."by Kazuo Ishiguro.

    Amicably - Characterized by or exhibiting friendliness or goodwill; friendly

    Personification - Artistic representation of an abstract quality or idea as a person

    It might not be a bad idea to explain what your words mean. ;)


  • Registered Users Posts: 14,330 ✭✭✭✭Amz


    ^^^
    They've been explained ill try and find a more concise definition of them later but i have to study to do that..... which we know aint going to happen.....

    Procrastinate..... hmmm.... looking up a definition of that might help me waste time instead of doing something constructive


    I can feel myself moviing closer to being banned...... meep!
