Thanks again Agent360

WOW!  very intersting thread

S! Zoney...it's all good.

I did give Zoney a 200 lashing. This is true.

Mtman said "Disrespectful, arrogant, spoiled, childish, belittling, and a few other similar descriptions "....not sure about that one but I did say "lame" a bunch. If I call you a "twit", "pond scum", "ho bag", "looser", "coward" or any combonation of those involving "twit" that would be much more serious. I would say on the Muppet banter scale he got a....."3" lashing (1 being nice and 10 being banned)

Here you are thinking "loser" is spelled looser the first time I noted it.....

[FALCONWING]

Falconwing,

Since you brought it up.

....
An "empiric victory" IS a legal term. The word "empiric" is used as a noun to refer to the defendant in legal cases where the plantiff looses at great cost in either expenses or effort, or, results in a technical victory resulting in no punishment in relation to the crime....more of a slap on the wrist.

Both words are often used in the same sense. It depends on what context one is speaking.

Here is your second misuse of the word....

[Slash27]

Anything else doc?

[FALCONWING]

Funny you should ask Slash!....yes it continues...almost as if he believes that he is conjugating the verb "lose" properly over and over again...

.......

adjective form is proper vs using the implied form as an adjective.

Most people think that the proper phrase would be "pyrrhic victory". This type of victory describes

a victory that comes with great or unacceptable losses. Such as loosing all of your soldiers or in

law spending great amounts of money and using up resources.

In law the term empiric is used due to its roots being knowledge, right and wrong. Further, it is in

fact, used to describe a civil legal battle where large amounts of money were spent to win but

without significant or even no return for the win and in criminal law where a lengthy trial resulted in

no serious punishment to the defendant.

A pyrrhic victory is one where you still win but at a cost so great it becomes worthless. You do win

and may keep winning and gaining something of value but all the time you are loosing more than

you win.

An empirical victory is one where you win (with or without great loss of something valuable) but did

not gain anything of value for it. One only gets to say "i was right". The win gained nothing,

accomplished no goal, had no effect positive or negative. It achieved absolutely nothing. But the act

of winning did not result in a great loss of anything to you. This is quite different from a pyrrhic

victory.

Who's your daddy now???

Here you are misusing it twice in one post....  Perhaps next time you accuse me of inattentiveness you should review your own posts...

It seems that in this dictionary fight, Agent has the more maneuverable dictionary, and Falcon has the more high powered dictionary.
