I bet seeing a pistolero with dual pistola's would make him implode.anygunanywhere wrote:Pistola?Wolverine wrote:How about pistil? And stamen.fickman wrote:Use any synonym, euphemism, or colloquialism that you want and I'll go right along. Say "pistol" and I'll look like I just ate a lemon.

At times, it comes across as cowards criticizing heros for doing the right thing.

I agree. My comments are regarding when it is used in a derogatory way towards those that are willing to act in an effort to save another. There's a difference in someone out looking for an opportunity to play cop or good guy and those that go about their lives and are willing to assist another if they happen upon an opportunity to do so.Oldgringo wrote:Granted, the term "Batman license" is subject to interpretation.mojo84 wrote:"Batman license" Used by those that are afraid to assist another human being that is in trouble and those that want to demean the ones that are willing to assist.

You are too old to be worrying about stuff like that.Dadtodabone wrote:How to put it...
In the neighborhood I've resided in for the past 15 years, unique pronunciations of place and street names is the norm. San Feleep, Guadaloop, Kirkendoll, Tailspin, San Jahsinto or San Jack, etc. I've received not a little bit of good natured ribbing from folks back home as we prepare for our move, because I'm automatically applying a Houstonian pronunciation to Spanish and French words. Long A, short A, no e at the end, ch instead of sh, i's are i's or maybe they're e's.
Lord help me, I may be too old to change and people are going to snicker at me for decades!
