No Problem!!!!!!! I thought that was the case which is why I clarified it.
Should have made it more clear at the onset. My fault.
I'm on your side!

Yes, Porkbutt IS the ex operator so named. He made himself infamous during
his years as an overbearing, selfish, and overpowered Ham op on 14.313.
Rich is not missed save by a few of his malingerers.
The band is a better place without him.

And Frankie, why can't you and Dan just get along? Yeah, Dan is garrulous,
he is known to be a pain in the ass at times, but why promulgate it with
your inane comments?
Do you take pleasure in needling Dan? Why?
Dan has his schedule full enough as it is...he has to deal with jammers and
the likes of David Tolassi and Dumbass Donnie. There is no need for you,
Frankie, to be tossing your two cents worth into the already confused foray.
Frankie...ever pull your dictionary off the shelf and read the definition of
"maturity"? Perhaps you and Dan should both do so, but most of all, YOU
should do so Frankie.

One thing still eludes me in all of this. Why the Hell are all of you guys
so set on attacking Lloyd? He doesn't really upset the cart all that much,
but yet you guys persist in attacking him at every turn. What gives? Is this
a "pile-on" mentality whereby all you macho Ham geeks attack the weakest of
the weak? Like sharks going for the scent of blood? Playground Bullies?
Cowards? Pussies? Whassa matter? Lloyd doesn't use a pocket protector for
his fifteen multi-colored ball-point pens? Doesn't wear his callsign on his
baseball hat? Doesn't run around with six HT's on his belt? Doesn't have six
antennas on his SUV?
Face it...look at all the posts allegedly made by Lloyd...there are many.
You guys don't know the real Lloyd from the sock puppet Lloyds, nor do you
care to find out, if you can.

Give Lloyd a break, whoever he is. It is beyond your areas of expertise to
cull out the real Lloyd from the anonymous Lloyds.

Maybe one of these days you freaks can take off your aluminum helmets with
the rubber duckies mounted on them and join the real world.

Frankie...stop messing with Dan. Change your diapers and move on....









NO CALL, NO BALLS HERE.....

Malingerers? Do you know what a malingerer is? It's someone who goofs
off and does no work. It is not a synonym for "apologist" or
"supporter."

Yeah, Dan is garrulous, he is known to be a pain in the ass at times,
but why promulgate it with your inane comments?

Promulgate? Do you know what promulgate means? It is the process of
developing legislation or procedures. It is not a synonym for
"antagonize" or "perpetuate."

Frankie...ever pull your dictionary off the shelf and read the definition of
"maturity"?

This is the best part. LaShaun telling Frankie to "pull [the]
dictionary off the shelf." Try it yourself, and while you have it
open, read the definition of "ironic."

Oxymoronic. Simply a typo. Malingerer, and promulgate were not.

From http://www.brainydictionary.com:

"Malingerer

"(n.) In the army, a soldier who feigns himself sick, or who induces
or protracts an illness, in order to avoid doing his duty; hence, in
general, one who shirks his duty by pretending illness or inability."

Which says to me that the poster is likening the supporters to a bunch
of military duty shirkers. That's quite a valid use of the word in
that case.

But that's not what the context is. The intent of the original
statement is clear that he is referring to his (Rich's) supporters.

"Rich is not missed save by a few of his malingerers."

Malingerers is clearly a noun. In the case you try to make, it would
be descriptive of his, what? supporters? apologists? In other words,
more like an adjective. Then what is it modifying? Nothing.

In other words, you are trying to convince us that the original poster
was saying that "Rich is not missed save by a few [people who feign
illness or inability]." Sorry, no sale.

: Yeah, Dan is garrulous, he is known to be a pain in the ass at times,
: but why promulgate it with your inane comments?
:
: Promulgate? Do you know what promulgate means? It is the process of

: "antagonize" or "perpetuate."

Oh heck: Let's look it up on the web again, since LRod needs all the help
he can get.

At http://www.hyperdictionary.com/dictionary/promulgate, we find that
some synonyms for the word are "exclaim" or "proclaim." That source
also suggests that you look up "announce" and "trumpet" if you are
trying to get a feeling for the meaning of the word.

I will concede that I've never heard promulgate used in that fashion.
Sue me. I will not concede, however, that given the whole text of the
definition (which refers to publishing laws or proclamations) that the
original poster's use was appropriate, particularly in the context of
the original post.

In fact, "perpetuate" is another perfectly good synonym, contrary to the
erroneous statement by "master language butcher" LRod.

Interesting propaganda technique there; citing a source and using
actual material from it, then adding one's own thoughts in the same
paragraph to give the impression one's own ideas are also from that
source. Please cite any source in which "perpetuate" is a synonym to
"promulgate." It's certainly not in the ones you used.

Perhaps "LRod" would do well to consult a dictionary himself before
attempting to correct someone else.

Just one? Why, you used at least two, neither of them mainstream, to
try and make your point. Something wrong with http://www.m-w.com ?

Instead of the intended result, LRod, you now have your foot firmly planted
in your own mouth.

I know you'd like to think so, but, I refer you to Mark Twain's essay
"Fenimore Cooper's Literary Offenses" in which he describes, with a
musical metaphor, Cooper's misuse of words as "sharping and flatting"
his way along. The vocabulary use in the original poster's message
fell short in substantially the same way.
