The DU Lounge
Related: Culture Forums, Support ForumsWhole lot of eviscerating going on...
Is this possibly the most over used verb by DU posters? A search for "eviscerates" on DU reveals 1190 results. "Eviscerated", another 4790 results. These are mostly in the thread title.
I mean, if I see the word eviscerated in the title, I'm expecting to see a Julia Sugarbaker type smack down of someone who desperately needs it. I find that too often, I'm disappointed in the smackitude of the posts that claims some evisceration is going on.
Anyway....I love words. Blessed be and peace to you, Joni Mitchell. You eviscerate other song writers.
That's my two cents.

Everyone forgets the e after the w so we had a massive conference and voted to use eviscerate instead, now people forget the c after the s. Can't win for losing around here.

Too is a lovely synonym for "as well" which is quickly becoming overused.

However, i believe we can adapt that to DU liiiiiike, I don't know.
Elizabeth Warren totally clusterfucked Jamie Dimon in today's Senate Finance Hearing.
I kinda like it!
