Having said that, in Anthony Trollope's The Last Chronicle of Barset, the Archdeacon describes the tag "De mortuis nihil nisi bonum" as "founded in humbug" and refuses to follow "the namby-pamby every-day decency of speaking well of one of whom he had ever thought ill."

@shavixmir saidOh and i thought his death couldn't be more of a good event.
Oh well.
At least he lived to see trump lose the election.
The world is a better place without him living . That asswipe actively worked towards a worse world. Good riddance

Woodsman A eats what he kills. Woodsman B next-door eats what other people kill. Which is the liberal? Make your fellow liberals proud and answer the question, pretty please. you get to ask questions, I dont. 🤔

@averagejoe1 saidObviously Woodsman A is the liberal worker and Woodsman B the conservative capitalist.

@athousandyoung saidThe way he talked reminds me of a big fat obnoxious pig who talks while chewing his food.
I heard Rush Limbaugh was a big fat idiot.
I didn't mind his views though 🤔

@phil-a-dork saidHe was an unapologetic hypocrite, if you're into those things. You gain more traction as a populist if you ridicule the actions of powerful people instead of actually working for the benefit of others. It's so much easier to complain about immigrants instead of complaining about decades of conservative-led initiates on economic deregulation and weirdo social policies. Idiocracy.

The post that was quoted here has been removedActually, most grammatical authorities agree that "than" can function either as a preposition or a conjunction and that either the subject or object pronoun is acceptable. Thus, if the proposition is "Duchess64 is more pedantic than Teinosuke", either "She is more pedantic than he [is]" or "She is more pedantic than him" would be permissible.
Shakespeare: "A man no mightier than thyself or me."
Samuel Johnson: "No man had ever more discernment than him, in finding out the ridiculous."

@earl-of-trumps saidRationalise with him? How is that possible? You cannot rationalise with an unflushed turd you can only poke it with stick.
@Duchess64 - I doubt that Rush Limbaugh would have cared about what his enemies thought of him.
That's about it. He'd allow them to call into his show and try to rationalize with them. That was a comedy all of its own, sometimes.
