  • If you reverse the first two words such as "The bad, the ugly, the playful, and the promising" it would be a tetracolon crescens (four parts in increasing magnitude of syllables). -- GreenC 19:10, 18 August 2016 (UTC)[reply]
  • I found the Tom Mendelsohn article on Ars Technica to be an entertaining read, and a curious reflection on the overly sensitive age in which we live. Praemonitus (talk) 19:25, 18 August 2016 (UTC)[reply]
I enjoyed the article as well, but I'm not sure I understand your comment. Do I understand your statement that we (humanity) are too sensitive? Ckoerner (talk) 16:21, 22 August 2016 (UTC)[reply]
I too was unsure of the meaning there. Was it meant that Tom Mendelsohn was too sensitive about the Wikipedia article's content? If there were a WP article about me, I would not want it to say untrue stuff about me. But there isn't anything overly sensitive about feeling that way; rather, it's the rational amount of sensitivity! Quercus solaris (talk) 23:27, 23 August 2016 (UTC)[reply]
