Any more ground breaking news?

Stout; strong, hardy. Astute; apt, clever. 'A stout' = astute?

You're obviously fallible and mocking the OP! You have the right to remain silent and are sentenced to the Grammar and Spelling Gulag, Northern Siberia. Dave, take him away!

Shouldn't it be, "...fallible AT mocking..." rather than "and"? Anyway thanks for the spelling correction. No matter how I tried it Firefox wouldn't let me do it. But I wasn't entirely coherent last night. I will correct myself...

Savvy?

"Capitan"? Is English your first language?

Glad to see the hakwon trolls are on the board and defending their masters.

Anyway my post was intended to warn those who are posting about their bad experiences. Truth is no defense against libel in Korea.

Shouldn't you be out there recruiting newbies for your overlord?

Are you calling me Captain or OP? Anyway The fact that they read this is the reason I don't say anything condemning on Dave's.

There used to be a poster named Captain Obvious about 6 years ago on the old board.

perhaps you are one of those we should be worried about?

fyi, your so-called "observation" reeks like the open sewers after a rain - more like a veiled threat of sorts.

Funnily enough I guess all the posters who over the years have made this observation are making veiled threats as well.. Rolling Eyes

I hope they are reading. The good ones have nothing to worry about. The others can kiss my asphalt.

^ It's a good thing that Dave's is based out in Los Angeles instead of here. Imagine the endless litigation by groups such as Hagwon Owners' Association, the KTEWU, the anti-English Spec . . . (the other site that once was; I don't think I'm allowed to say it here per the TOS), it would never end. Posters on here would get rounded up and charged.
