Title: Four-word posts
Post by: Omicron9 on August 23, 2017, 08:24:11 AM
Enjoying the x-word posts threads.  I didn't see one for four-word posts; nor could I locate same using the search function.  Ergo, I submit this thread and kick it off with the following.

"Mon semblable, — mon frère!"

As much as I am digging this excellent forum, its one downfall, if it has one, is the lack of "Like" buttons.  With so many posts, I find myself glancing at the bottom of the screen so as to hit Like.  Dang.

I'm used to that Elsewhere. But I think the argument goes it can become "an issue."

Agreed.

Ah, there we are.  Back to the four-word posts.  Even if questionable grammar.
