Did you ever see history portrayed as an old man with a wise brow and pulseless heart, waging all things in the balance of reason?
Is not rather the genius of history like an eternal, imploring maiden, full of fire, with a burning heart and flaming soul, humanly warm and humanly beautiful?

Hi All,
Sorry I need to vent, well an interview I went for on Thursday came back today with the standard 'I am sorry, but..' it appears as though this week is going to awkward as parents are moving and I have to give them some help... Like a certain Cat I am begining to dislike Mondays.

Cheer up. Just in this post you've demonstrated your creativity and wit by verbifying 'awkward'. Just think what you can achieve in a whole week!!! (Too soon?)

After the self driving cars debate of yesterday, The mouse over text[^] is particularly relevant!
Does Randall read the lounge?

We are a team consisting of people from different cultures and we do have our regular faux pas with some terms.
One frequent word is "Girl Friend".
How to refer a person( female) whom you are not seeing or in relationship. She can be a friend or just an acquaintances.
Will the term "friend" just suffice or is there any other term which can be used?
cheers,
Super

how about 'colleague' ? - does it really have to be gender specific in this day and age ?
|
|

Colleague works fine. We have few guys who always call them as "girl friend" which sometimes leads to some embarrassing discussion later.
cheers,

It can be situationally important. And at those times, saying lady-friend would work (when it's not a coworker).

Friend without benefits?

I'm not a native at all, but it sound to me just right to use 'friend' with no addition...
She's a friend of mine...

In the UK we would use the word "mate" which has no connection to mating!
