    And part of language is to use terms that people understand whether or not the term makes sense.

    You must have a lot of trouble with people who say things are old news or taste bittersweet.

      You think people can’t understand “Biden campaign staffers”?

      I think you just turned to personal attacks, so cheers. (But to respond, old terms are old terms. You use them in the old context, but this is the new context. Nor is this bittersweet, which honestly doesn’t make any sense and I think is a blind attempt to ‘rub it in’ in the hope that it hurts. Anyways cheers.)

        For someone who is complaining this much about a term being misused in their opinion, you sure have a funny idea of what constitutes a personal attack.

        We all understood what he fucking said. In context he could’ve said “got rid of Biden’s fuckers for Obama’s” and the rest of us would have understood while you requested proof none of them were virgins.
