milquetoast

[tielan]

I've never considered the word 'milquetoast' a particularly powerful insult to start with (not to mention possibly the least believable insult when it comes to me) but it loses even that faint air of disdain when someone tries to stick it on you in an anonymous, private message...

Mate, I ain't the milquetoast.

:D (That's very funny!)

"That word, you keep using it; I don't think it means what you think it means..."

[gaffsie]

Wow, that must have been devastating for you to hear.

[tielan]

It was! I was heartbroken!

[misbegotten]

Anon, you're doing it wrong.

(And I agree, that's very funny!)

[tielan]

Of all the insults they could have chosen to fling...

[shorti]

Seriously were do you find all these crazies?

[tielan]

Darned if I know.

Well, actually, I think it's because I'm being rather outspoken about things like gun control and voting and Americans not being precious little darlings about their principles, and sucking it up and voting for the lesser evil...

[shorti]

Ahhh,being reasonable. That always results in a call for the pitchfork mob.

I actually had to look that one up, and um... not a word I'd really associate with you, no.

I wonder if they know what it means.

[tielan]

I'm guessing they don't. But it was amusing all the same...

Wow, that is an ASTOUNDING failure of vocabulary. Honestly, I'd have to say you closer to mustard, a strong flavor and necessary in many places!
