Your words are unmistakably clear.

Meanwhile, in the 90s, I was regularly enjoying downtown meals at Luigi's, the Astor, and Chez Francois.

The context was that I said that GAR is serving 90s era food. You asked me to describe 90s era food. I asked if you were too drunk or poor to remember 90s era food. You retorted by claiming to have eaten in the 90s at a downtown restaurant that ceased to exist downtown in 1975.

It was a big, big fuckup. It only further exposed you as a lying fraud.

Nothing is clear but your fallen-behind butthurt lack of English comprehension. Got any trips planned for the weekend? LOL!

There is no other way to read it other than the fact you claimed to eat at a downtown restaurant in the 90s that ceased to exist downtown in 1975. You fucked up.

Your claim.

WHO: You

WHAT: enjoying meals

WHERE: Downtown at Chez Francois

WHEN: In the 90s.

You fucked up. You didn't know Chez Francois ceased to exist downtown in 1975. Or, you lied about it. Lies and blunders! LOL!

> Got any trips
> planned for the weekend? LOL!

Not this weekend. Last weekend and next month. Oh, and the following month. You? Oh wait, nevermind. LOL!

He's a poor writer.

It's obvious he isn't successful at writing the idea he is wishing to convey.

You do nothing but stumble over the written word. And you are too ashamed
to admit where you went last weekend. FRAUD.

Seems to be a continual problem.

You seem to stumble writing words.

Not at all ashamed to say where I was last weekend.

> FRAUD.

LOL! You got caught in a big fuckup that exposed you as a fraud.

When did Chez Francois decamp DC?

Meanwhile, in the 90s, I was regularly enjoying downtown meals at Luigi's, the Astor, and Chez Francois.

There is no other way to read it other than the fact you claimed to eat at a downtown restaurant in the 90s that ceased to exist downtown in 1975. You fucked up.

Your claim.

WHO: You

WHAT: enjoying meals

WHERE: Downtown at Chez Francois

WHEN: In the 90s.

You fucked up. You didn't know Chez Francois ceased to exist downtown in 1975. Or, you lied about it. Lies and blunders! LOL!

Not at all ashamed to say where I was last weekend.

> FRAUD.

LOL! You got caught in a big fuckup that exposed you as a fraud.

When did Chez Francois decamp DC?

Remember, slow-pokes: I wrote for years for the academic and professional presses. Also for the op-ed pages of newspapers that people have actually heard of.

There is no actual evidence entered into the record indicating that any of that is the case. And, even if you did, you fucked up here.

What we do have are your own words which are either a blunder or a lie. Pick one.

Meanwhile, in the 90s, I was regularly enjoying downtown meals at Luigi's, the Astor, and Chez Francois.

There is no other way to read it other than the fact you claimed to eat at a downtown restaurant in the 90s that ceased to exist downtown in 1975. You fucked up.

Your claim.

WHO: You

WHAT: enjoying meals

WHERE: Downtown at Chez Francois

WHEN: In the 90s.

You fucked up. You didn't know Chez Francois ceased to exist downtown in 1975. Or, you lied about it. Lies and blunders! LOL!

Must have written under a nom de plume, and that’s why we’ve never seen any of his work.

No PII. Dummies.

Again, there is no actual evidence entered into the record indicating that any of that is the case. And, even if you did, you fucked up here. Now, given your numerous blunders and lies, it calls that claim into question.

What we do have are your own words which are either a blunder or a lie. Pick one.

Your claim.

WHEN: In the 90s.

Do you dispute that the above is what you claimed?

You fucked up. You didn't know Chez Francois ceased to exist downtown in 1975. Or, you lied about it. Lies and blunders! LOL!

Old fart sent a few letters to the editor and thinks he wrote op-ed pages.

May have had an anecdote published in Reader’s Digest.

That never got printed b\c the newspapers don't publish potty mouth name calling screeds written by somebody with the mental dev. of a 5th grader.

Just more of Gerund Boy's lies.

Even Reader's digest doesn't print stuff obviously written by somebody with a 5th grade mentality. You know, full of potty mouth name calling & unproven sentences & lies.

Slim Jim’s, pork rinds and Mountain Dew!

Well, English comprehension has proven to be quite the stumbling block for the Whiffies once again. As with the likes of doglegs and dressing on the side, there is no recognition here of what is rather plain and evident meaning. And still of course, no willingness to disclose the destination of last weekend's alleged trip, where in DC one lived prior to 1998, or what 90's food actually is beyond some tissue paper meme made up in a sorry attempt to cover for another bit of poverty-driven ignorance plus those other two things. .

Meanwhile, skies are brightening just a bit this morning for all us wealthy retirees and others similarly situated out here in the magnificent Sweet Spot. It was 54 degrees when I got up to greet still mostly cloudy skies. We did have better than an inch of post meridiem rain yesterday, but there is no great chance of seeing any more of that today. Single-digit breezes from the south, and humidity in the low 90s round out the current state of affairs as we head for highs in the low 60s, readings that we might not see so often as we head into November. We do at least have one more week of daylight savings time.

Real President Joe is meanwhile getting near the end on wrangling whiners into backing the $1.75 trillion budget package. Meanwhile, law enforcement may be more evident than usual for a while after credible threats of possible terrorist actions against local malls and transit hubs were identified. Hopfully, nothing will come of these, but so much craziness is loose in the land.

Speaking of crazy, VOTE NO on Trumpkin, Virginia. Down the rabbit hole is no place to go.

In other news, the Cheaters were shut out on two crummy hits as the 'Braves' took a 2-1 lead in the Series. Game-4 will be tonight in Atlanta.

Tonight will meanwhile be another night of nothing good going on in feeble Falls Church City. By rights, there should at least be free classes in English as a Seiond Language going on, but the afflicted of the Sorry City only continue to suffer in their ignorance. And envy and butthurt.

LOL! The dope thinks her unread morning shitpost and spam make the following go away:

Meanwhile, in the 90s, I was regularly enjoying downtown meals at Luigi's, the Astor, and Chez Francois.

There is no other way to read it other than the fact you claimed to eat at a downtown restaurant in the 90s that ceased to exist downtown in 1975. You fucked up.

Your claim.

WHO: You

WHAT: enjoying meals

WHERE: Downtown at Chez Francois

WHEN: In the 90s.

Do you dispute that the above is what you claimed?

You fucked up. You didn't know Chez Francois ceased to exist downtown in 1975. Or, you lied about it. Lies and blunders! LOL!
