Resign vs Re-sign

[pjayz]

That didn't deserve a troll unless you were specifically singling out someone. But I do agree with @anthonyb1965 those who nitpick and correct other people's grammatical errors are a bunch of w-ankers.

Ahh I don't believe there is a hyphen in 'wankers'

With this social media stuff it can be easy to accidentally offend one or more people. It happened early on here with me so I'm cautious now to a level nearing paranoia (for want of a better term). I don't know how some of you guys got to 15,000+ posts.

Thanks Brian, you naughty boy.

Around here I prefer ‘Vires Acquirit Eundo.’* Quite appropriate.

Or ‘Vincent Amor Patriae.’** The ‘Fatherland’ in this case being Manly-Warringah.

But perhaps on the re-signing front our owners are applying some ‘Festina Lente’ *** to the process.

A door prize for the first person to work out what they all have in common.

Personally I prefer latinas to Latin

Not hard to offend people these days. Outrage and being offended by everything is life in the new age.

Is it a brothel per chance?

Heh..heh..yes, but no cigar.

Now ladies and gents, these two words have completely different meanings, and if used incorrectly can give rise to a heart attack, particularly the former.

At first I thought they were all quotes attributable to Virgil but the last quote seems to be by Caesar Augustus. so I dunno.

If not Virgil....they are all mottos of our current recruitment team?

Plus I think it is "Vincet" and not vincent.

beer!

 

[Terry Zarsoff]

It is Vincet. My mistake. These ****ing iPhones.

They are all current and former RAN ship’s mottos.

Vires....HMAS Melbourne

The latter two - the ex-HMA Submarines Otway and Onslow, respectively.

Jamie Lyon was our best ever centre!
Or was Steve Matai our best ever center?

grammar is the difference between knowing your sh!t and knowing you're sh!t.
