*yawns*

In America, the term "half a dozen" doesn't necessarily mean exactly 6. Just like a couple doesn't necessarily mean exactly 2. My point was not to say that the tactic was in direct response to exactly 6 ab fs and no more or less. I meant a handful. And no. Not exactly 5 either. Lol

But 3 is also incorrect just for the sake of making you angry lol. It was 4. I guess none of us have a flawless memory.

1275, 1315, 1436 and 1476 all show up as ab fs in earthgraphs.

And I'm sure a couple says exactly two too. Is everyone unfamiliar with slang? Sheesh.

I would hope a dictionary gives the actual definition and not slang lol

Sorry derrick, you're wrong on that one. Here's urbandictionary:
Half a dozen
The same as the number six, but used by people who think "six" is way too long.
I entered the "No usage of words thought to be way too long when actually short" club and there were half a dozen guys armed with bats looking at me.


A couple is definitely two unless you are in Utah where polygamy is cool :P

What you should be saying is the average of a couple and half a dozen

Typically but not always as a few has been used in some notable instances to refer to more than a dozen, such as a notable scene in Henry V, "we few, we happy few, we band of brothers". Of course, that is completely moot as clearly the English had white privilege and were being racist when they called themselves brothers, which is the exact point of this thread.

There are approximately 186,000 active duty and 38,500 reserve US marines, though they are often referred to as "few" and "proud." However, roughly 16,000 of roughly 21,000 officers are white males so this is clearly also a product of white privilege.

This is directly related to a couple to few half dozen sugar cookies that Celphi cooked me after our long evenings spent together in bed. They were not chocolate cookies or crack brownies also because of white privilege.

I've been called a lot of things but short of words is certainly a new one. Perhaps some more walls of text are in order. Yuge walls at that.

In the 90s people called each other gay. I'm just gay for you. That's very in fashion these days. Every time I see your name I just get hard af.

I wanna have sex with you bro. I take your consistent lack of response to my asking if you are dtf on irc as you just playing hard to get. If you don't want me then just cut the foreplay off and tell me no.

We can't have you on here all #metoo

To jayr's point tho, I think this thread has been completely devoid of an actual cohesive thought for a solid page and a half. I typically just talk nonsense on AT but you bring it out of me on irc too. You're a special kind of believing you are epic when everyone else thinks you are strange.

I'm just gonna keep trying for that hookup. Your response or lack thereof is worth it.

That's because they are using 'few' to say that the number is limited. Relative to the overall US population, there are very few marines. However, I feel like a few of you will still find a way to disagree with me.

You can read my edits. I actually just added to it. Didn't feel like double posting. But I am also a notorious post editor. I edit them all. I've probably edited a good 15 posts on this thread alone. One time I posted some alternative facts then went to edit them to truths instantly and got called out for my original post before I could finish my edits.

It may seem random but after about a half dozen comments about the few I decided that a couple posts about the few and proud might warrant a half dozen responses from a couple people.

And yes. I edited this post as well.
