They may appear to be synonymous due to misuse and misunderstanding of the idiom. Fortunately for the age of reason, as opposed to the age of stupid, only one of them makes any sense. johncrow, LSP_Matt, Rick Griewski and 1 other 2 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rick Griewski Posted February 3, 2022 Share Posted February 3, 2022 (edited) OK let’s practice. I could not care less about the P-51D variant. We IMHO, no wait my not so humble opinion need a new P-51B! Stop with clouding up the cosmic wish list with these kits that are every where, good value and perfectly fine to build. Hmmmm maybe you were joking about the D variant? (Note my granny said to alway use the two full words. Do not merge could and not. Ain’t was off limits too.)

Nobody with any education says 'nucular' That's the preserve of those who've never used the word 'nucleus' in their lives, ever. Ignorance is ignorance no matter how bigly it is trumpeted. Unless you want to find yourself slipping into Idiocracy, you should resist at every opportunity.

If you think this is about 'grammar', you should re-read carefully, because that's not the word you want. Ability to communicate with clarity is way more fundamental than that.

Johnny Cloud Posted February 3, 2022 Share Posted February 3, 2022 About the P-38J, I was really pulling for a 1/32 scale kit but I'll probably get this one. Mr.T is hard to resist! LSP_Matt 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Maxim61 Posted February 3, 2022 Share Posted February 3, 2022 Well, I'd much prefer Tamiya provide us the F-86 Sabre Such an iconic aircraft needs to done correctly in 1/32 scale. Dragon, D.B. Andrus, LSP_Matt and 1 other 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
