Are you a child? Then you're not an orphan.

The definition of orphan is "a child deprived by death of one or usually both parents".
AWwww...You shouldn't have told them suzianne, they didn't know any better. I was having fun watching. 🙂

Do you think my OP for this thread is an example of "shameless self-promotion"?

@divegeester
Are you citing that as an example of an "agenda" or "self-promotion"?

Hardly an "agenda". It was a one-off.


Since FMF does almost nothing here except self-promotion, yeah, for him, it's an "agenda".

'The Passed Pawn is a criminal, who should be kept under lock and key. Mild measures, such as police surveillance, are not sufficient.' ~ Nimzovich

Suzianne thinks of you as a passed pawn that seeks to promote.

I didn't realize you were a mind reader as well as a gravedigger. 🙂

No, it isn't. Don't be prescriptive. Don't be such a petty Websterite.

Another, just as valid, definition of an orphan is "someone deprived by death of both parents".

By that definition, I am an orphan as well.

(And I really am. For I am an orphan boy, and have been so on stage. Hurrah for the orphan boy!)
