Full indent ?

Yawn....you criticize another member, for using a common street accepted parlance, (which could have also been a typo )knowing what the member intended, but God forbid your holier than thou glass is broken. BTW, dumb, not dum. The thing is, you had the exact small comment concerning the exact same usage.....must of....the other day.

You did finally figure out what I was referring to, and why, so there is that. But, you railed 3 weeks ago about members not checking their posts for proper English usage. Yikes......

I don't know if this is sarcastic or just way over my head.

 

Dum loquimur invida aetas fugerit. (While we talk, hostile time flies away)

 

I'm going to assume he is typing faster than most of us can read. He's using hyphens for God sake. He probably used to rewind the ribbons.

 

Not aetas, in that particular use. Blame it on the Jesuits.

 

For God's sake, maybe he can stop hyphening typing corrections of other member's English. Crushed Tonka Toy Syndrome.

 

He's a tough one.

 

Misspelling a word and using the wrong word is two different things. At least I can admit it when I make a mistake. That is more than I can say for you, foo! Oops! There I go again.....another typo! Well, I'll just leave it. You are so full of it, your eyes are brown.

 

Relax why so ho today,wait my bad i forgot the(T).

 

Not intended to be sarcastic at all. People fairly often will use whatever, including coins, when there is a bit of wiggle that can be fixed by a shim of some sort. After years of being there, one side will wear down, but if the upper side is fairly immobile, such as gradually becoming pushed into a wooden table leg, it will show little wear. The original question had to do with what would have caused it. Certainly it did not come from the mint that way, and the suggestion was made that someone ground it down, as with a metal grinder, which is a possibility. I was suggesting another possibility.

 

Ok this is creative, I want to play... Maybe it was in the street and a vehicle had to stop suddenly for a careless pedestrian trying to cross the street and just as the tire approached the coin, locked up the wheels, dragging the coin several yards. I wonder if the careless pedestrian made it.

 

I cover a "full indent" in the book I sent you

 

Right! My memory is getting shorter and shorter. Thanks!
