30. Don't worry, some people around here look for a reason to jump on others.

A thick skin is good to have around here. Haven't seen anyone use the term Billary for years! You must have pulled that one out of deep memory!

Êtes-vous en France? MineralMan Feb 2014 #26
Yes Im French, and always lived there mylye2222 Feb 2014 #36
MM - Some of us know this poster as a human rights activist in France. She's legit blm Feb 2014 #54
OK. MineralMan Feb 2014 #58
They use the word Billary the same way E will say 'Brangelina'. It's NOT a pejorative there. blm Feb 2014 #90
Whatever you say. MineralMan Feb 2014 #105
So that is all you have to contribute? TroglodyteScholar Feb 2014 #18
Correctly using slang like 'Billary' isn't helping the non-native English narrative you are trying stevenleser Feb 2014 #19
She's for real, steve. blm Feb 2014 #56
Which makes it even weirder. Iggo Feb 2014 #64
Not really - foreign press reported the 2003-4 campaign more accurately than US media blm Feb 2014 #73
Yes, really. And I'm talking about today, not '04. Iggo Feb 2014 #77
Think what you want - she's using the term the way they say 'Brangelina' - nice of you to target her blm Feb 2014 #89
I said if she's as legit as you say (and I have no reason to believe she's not)... Iggo Feb 2014 #93
And I said, NOT REALLY. Not if you paid attention to what had been going on during the timeframe blm Feb 2014 #98
And then I said YES REALLY... Iggo Feb 2014 #111
So what? See my #103 below. nt stevenleser Feb 2014 #104
She is French - karynnj Feb 2014 #101
Then its still her fault. You should never use slang in another language unless you are sure stevenleser Feb 2014 #103
Actually - she was sure of its meaning and you knew who she meant karynnj Feb 2014 #108
That's silly. A European poster should see 'Brangelina' as OK, but, should question 'Billary' before blm Feb 2014 #112
Please forgive the rudeness of some of the replies. NYC_SKP Feb 2014 #80
