PaulinMyrBch said:You got the nope right. I'm not saying any of that, nor do I think it.
I was responding to Baka, who asked if anyone could make sense of a quote that seemed to have contradictory facts based on a very limited amount of information. But since you're so good at pulling facts out of nothing, why don't you take a crack at a headline that says "Kaepernick investigated for sexual assault" and reconcile that with her statement that says "we did not have sex".
It's all speculation at this point until we get some real info, I thought I made that clear when I typed "its a reach" in my first sentence.
Just throwing this out there but not every jurisdiction requires sex to charge sexual assault. Sexual assault could be a sexual battery which would include a non consensual act of the following: " 'Sexual battery' means oral, anal, or vaginal penetration by, or union with, the sexual organ of another or the anal or vaginal penetration of another by any other object; however, sexual battery does not include an act done for a bona fide medical purpose." - FL Statute 794.011PaulinMyrBch said:

Dude, that is just wrong.Vinho Tinto said:
That's Mr. Rapernick to you.
PaulinMyrBch said:Problem is you didn't keep your fucking mouth shut. You just didn't speculate. So stay out of the fucking discussion since your obviously not in agreement with the level of the discussion. When we get it up to your standards, I'm sure you'll let us know.

This is misused as much as "ironic".
Which is ironic.
OR IS IT?
@Kaepernick7 (1/3) The charges made in the TMZ story and other stories I’ve seen are completely wrong. They make things up about me that never happened.
@Kaepernick7 (2/3) I take great pride in who I am and what I do, but I guess sometimes you have to deal with someone who makes things up.
@Kaepernick7 (3/3) I want to thank all of the people who have shared their encouraging sentiments. I assure you that your faith is not misplaced.

It really begs the question: why do people use expressions incorrectly so frequently?
Perhaps, but we all remember what Sherman did the last time Kaep tried to "score".Marciano490 said:If Kaep was going to hang out with a Seahawk, he should've brought along Richard Sherman.

You have unwittingly confirmed that you don't understand the expression.MalzoneExpress said:"Russell Wilson is a successful mobile QB in the league without a felony rap sheet" (the exception) "proves" that a successful mobile QB in the league needs a felony rap sheet.(the rule).
The word police on SoSH are obnoxious.
I mis-wrote. I should have stated:Reverend said:You have unwittingly confirmed that you don't understand the expression.
I'm sure many here would be happy to explain it. But you don't seem very open to that.
MalzoneExpress said:I mis-wrote. I should have stated:
"Other than Russell Wilson, a successful mobile QB in the league must have a felony rap sheet" (the exception) "proves" that a successful mobile QB in the league must have a felony rap sheet.(the rule).

I'm still quietly seething even though it was intentional. And humorous.DrewDawg said:Nicely done.

Reverend said:
The Latin original of this saying dates back over two millennia to Cicero. It means if you make an exception to a rule, a rule must exist. If you say “in case of fire students may use the emergency exits” it is clear that the rule is that normally students are not supposed to use those exits. Few people understand this point and they misuse the phrase “the exception proves the rule” to mean that a rule is not really a rule unless there is an exception to it. This makes no sense. It’s better to simply avoid this misleading phrase.

I was really hoping this one would be the exception that proved the rule.Reverend said:Another Sexual Assault thread turns tragic.
MalzoneExpress said:
These two statement, mean "Other than Russell Wilson, a successful mobile QB in the league must have a felony rap sheet". Rusell Wilson is the exception that proves the rule "To be a successful mobile QB in the league you need a felony rap sheet.."
