Not that there's anything *wrong* with being a grad student -- per se.

Criticism? Why should "big tits" be a criticism?
> And should there be a comma after "slut"?
No. There should be a telephone number, though.

Actually, I believe the correct form would have been 'per sem'.

Is there a "sem" at all? In any case "per" governs the accusative and "se" is the accusative of the reflexive pronoun (se, sui, sibi, se).

In what language? Not Latin, certainly.

Sorry -- it was an attempt at a joke, connected with the recent gender-neutral pronoun discussions (the suggested forms being 'se', 'sem', 'ses', 'semself').
Stan: the language is, of course, Finglish.

That's not what I've heard. Rumor has it that Ms. Truly "Queen Cobra" Donovan flew to India to spend two weeks at the famous "Cobras-R-Us" Herpetological Clinic of Uttar Pradesh to have her venom-sacs enlarged and refilled, her fangs resharpened, and to nurse her wounds inflicted by AUE's fearless mongooses.

Sensitivity has no place in aue (no capitals no sic sneer), as I found from the first, so your imputation leaves me unruffled.
>Has any human being on this NG heard what's with her? >Polar
I think she is probably just gathering strength, but I guess I don't get a voice, eh?

Polar, so far I've treated you as the harmless, cowardly, paranoid, hysterical, airheaded Dizzy Dame that you are. But your above accusation is downright nasty and doubly repulsive coming from a hypocritical bitch who's always so "sensitive" and concerned about the feelings of others.
Not *one* of us -- and I dare to speak for all the AUEers who think that Ms. Donovan can be an overbearing, arrogant, know-it-all pain-in-the-ass -- would *ever* wish that anything negative should happen to TD.
You, on the other hand, deserve to get the running shits for six months for being such a nasty-mouthed CUNT. Quelle espèce de con! So eine freche Schnauze! Sacco di merda! ¡Puta chingada! Pizda! Farkakte pirge! Zoná! Lófasz a seggedbe! Go n-ithe an cat thú is go n-ithe an diabhal an cat! Malaka! Bint ishsharmuuta!
As cowardly Polar ("Sarah" Meric) does not receive my posts, perhaps a polyglot reader will translate the insults to give her more foreign-language snippets she loves to use.
