Title: RENE - was Re: [VFB] PROOF that the group is NOT Clickish

Rene,

To help you übersetz it, try looking up the word "clique" in your worterbuch.

To make it an adjective, you would then use the word "clique-ish", which is

pronounced "clickish".

That's the problem with English, which uses words from other countries that aren't

spelled the way we think they should be.  (Without checking, I think "clique" might

be Franzozische,

Allan

Keith, Nick, Dan, Henk, Chuck, Jim,
thanks a lot for the english lesson. I figured, it has something to do with the mouse click, and didn't understand one wort of this thread.
Best
Rene

Good. I was waiting for someone to ask... so someone could answer him. Finally I can say something on the subject. ;o)

 

The only 'clickish' group I know of here are Jester, Buster, Ghoster, Buggs and Dr D. They might not really 'keep to themselves', since we often see their less than intelligent comments on the list. But they do think a little much of themselves and see themselves as a top class group of people. So this maybe makes them "semi-clickish". But since they in some ways are a little 'special', noone really wants to join them either... so I don't see a reason to make a major fuss about it.

Rene, a click is a small group of people that tend to keep to themselves and not allow anyone else to join their group.

Folks: I can PROVE that this group is NOT clickish.. If it were,I would NOT have been accepted as part of the "family" when, as  a Dirt Poor Bama Boy who came along, without the money to get to the county line, much less go all over the country or world to shows etc, and asked a MILLION questions, and got send umteen "care packages" from ppl of all walks of life here, asking NOTHING in return, but maybe reports on how I was coming along.. Taught me EVERYTHING (or directed me to books, videos etc that would) I know about fly fishing and/or tying..Did NOT laff when I told the group that all I had was a Shakespeare "$29.95 Wal Mart Special combo rod/reel given to me by my daughter for Fathers day. and I could go on and on, but it would use too much bandwidth, Chuck
