Have you decided to fill the gap left by Shep?

I don't think Shep was ever this inventive.

But, you know, I've learned from others that adapting people's user names into mildly insulting epithets is OK.

It's a literal Shepism. Do a search. I'm not against having fun with people's usernames on principle, but there was more than a whiff of homophobia about this particular coinage, and it belongs in the bin, in my view.

Inventive? Two people have called me that name before, and as a matter of fact it's the two people that you start cryarseing about every time someone suggests you're being a bit extra on the forum.

Homophobia?

Not seeing it. The inference being that jim is a bit of a fanny. Possible sexism, yes.

It's usually you that starts whining about me, to be fair.

Come on Multz - there's no need to be obtuse. Shep has very fixed views on what Proper Men are like, and uses terms associated with women or girls to denigrate men he sees as emasculated or effeminate. See also "jimslip". And his shitty little cheerleader Jowwy sniggers along approvingly. I'm not suggesting that you used the name with the same intent - I'm just telling you what I see when I read it.

I'm afraid all that predates my arrival.

It harks back to a golden age of NACA, where threads were bathed in the gold celestial light of dopamine and serotonin. The cherubim Shep and jowwy were harmonious in intent to spread love and affection wherever they went. Rusty was optimistic and Fozy potent. Bobsmyuncle had a thought in his head and AndyCXR was happy and content, just as long as he had his arm up a cow's arṣe.

And prescient.

You are Jowwy with a dictionary AICMFP. (March 2023)

And prescient.

You posted that after my arrival, so it can't be prescient.

Want a lend of my dictionary?

It was prescient in that I saw early signs of your potential as a newby on my forum despite your self-effacing nature.

Will that dictionary explain to me when 'lend' can be used as a noun?
