Too many bitches?

I'm sorry, did you say "ale"? As in ... "real ale"? Has that reached Texas?

Hey, in their defense, there's some good beer in parts of Texas, courtesy of the Germans who moved out to the Texas plains in the 19th (I think) century.

warped language = coining new words with no basis in reality; intraverted would be an example; changing the meaning of words already coined like conservative not being someone who actually conserves, but someone who does whatever he wants to stay in control, or freedom meaning not having to accept responsibilty for ones actions. I suppose you can get a basic idea from this.

 

thanks for the welcome.

You are welcomed.  I guess there won't be any condemning.  Why stop with new words though?  What about old words with no basis in reality?  Like, god?  I do disagree with changing the meaning of words, this is how language evolves and it is constantly happening; an unavoidable, inextricable effect of language use.  You don't have to like it, but then I would highly recommend limiting your vocabulary to particles if you don't want to use words whose meanings have been changed recently, or at least to qualify practically every word you use.  I'm nitpicking, obviously, but you may appreciate where I'm coming from.  I do get the idea of what you mean; you have the same issues with poor language use that we all do.  It's important for understanding to be mutual and when people use a word in a way that we're unfamiliar with or perform a fallacy of language it complicates or inhibits understanding and that is a nuesance.  I think you'll have a great time here because many of us are very particular with our language use and go to great length to ensure that we are understood and that there is little to no confusion over the meaning of the words we use.

Celis makes some good Belgian style ales in Texas.

The worst stuff about twisting meanings if words is used by the religious. Like when they claim they are persecuted when they are prevented from persecuting others. Or claiming that it's unfair that they aren't allowed to prevent gays from marrying.

Bock beers are made in the Texas Hill Country; i.e. the area around and south of Austin. the plains are buttwasher country.
