It's nice to see Cliffy tryiing to expand his mind. Or perhaps the doctor has him on something that will curb his hateful nature and posting only silly memes.

It's a start.

. . . and it puts him well ahead of you.

Dear me, you're off your feed today, aren't you? Between Cliffy and you, it's often difficult to tell where the reality ends and the fantasy starts in your worlds. When was the last time you got abducted by aliens or Conservatives? We're so interested.

For someone with so many issues - a hater, especially of Jews, government - I suppose it's in your nature to lash out at any one who displeases you. When the rational people post, it butts against the confused thoughts in your head and you lash out.

Are you still receiving alien or Illuminati broadcasts because of the plate in your head?

It's a phrase meaning face to face.:)

Mano a Mano

"Q: I’ve noticed that some people use the term “mano a mano” to mean man to man. What puzzles me is that mano means hand in Spanish, not man, so “mano a mano” should mean hand to hand. Why do people misuse this term and how did the mistake come about?

A: You’re right: mano does mean hand in Spanish, and mano a mano literally means hand to hand in Spanish. But Spanish speakers use the phrase to mean between the two of them, especially between two men. So, two Chilean legislators could have a mano a mano debate, and two Spanish bullfighters could have a mano a mano in the ring.

In English, the expression refers to a direct (think “hand-to-hand”) conflict or competition between two people, such as a mano-a-mano playoff between two golfers or a mano-a-mano struggle between two prize-fighters.

The term “man to man,” on the other hand, means frank and honest (as in a man-to-man talk) or refers to a one-on-one defense in sports, according to The American Heritage Dictionary of the English Language (4th ed.) and Merriam-Webster’s Collegiate Dictionary (11th ed.).

Many people, though not dictionaries, think that “man to man” also means hand to hand (as in man-to-man combat), which probably accounts for much of the confusion between “mano a mano” and “man to man.”

What’s more, the Spanish word for brother, hermano, has a slang version in Spanglish: the short form mano. So “Hey, mano” is a rough equivalent of the greeting “Hey, man.” This usage, which cropped up in the 1960s, is probably influenced by the English word “man,” according to the Random House Historical Dictionary of American Slang."

Did anybody watch the video or are all of you arguing over the title?

Galling, isn't it, Cliffy?

You post a discussion topic and replies range from mocking memes to diverting drivel.

BTW, I watched the video.

You figure that he authored the whole thing, do you?


... and then, they translated it into Latin in later editions?

It's a confrontation between two entities without arms, not necessarily in an unfriendly contest.
BTW, in the ol' spirit world sex is a past thing as are arms, and the things you hold in them as well.
:)

The man thing? Its all symbolism, you know...the "image" thing.

The original bible, the one sanctioned by Constantine and used by the Catholic church was in Latin. The King James Version was in old English. I didn't author the article or film the video. I never gave my opinion.

Your sarcasm is duly noted and point taken.
