I wondered if that was the case.DrGreg said:Yes, I knew that. My response was intended as a joke in itself. But I obviously failed.

No, it's a clever device to stop moronic pests reaching the admissions office. I think I'll install one of those on my front pathway too.jtbell said:I wonder whose idea of a lame joke it was to put this pillar right in, and blocking, one of the sidewalks leading up to our college’s admissions office.
[Edit:] Or maybe it's to give students some practice with the essential skill of repeatedly banging one's head against brick walls?

I will start being careful when someone calls me 'mate' from now on.Bandersnatch said:@Bystander @fresh_42 I know. But that is not the 'this etymology' I was referring to, as you can readily see by comparing your own links to what @Klystron posted. I don't feel too comfortable with my Latin, since it's been a while since I took it (and only a semester), so I'd be happy to learn that there is a 'mate' verb that means 'kill, murder', or that the word 'deci' means 'tenth' (as opposed to e.g. 'decimus').

I didn't get this one either.fresh_42 said:I'm not really a fan of videos, it was more a test of PF5 than a joke, although it is funny, or sad.

Mate is really good, you should try it. I prefer the smoked variant.WWGD said:I will start being careful when someone calls me 'mate' from now on.
(And yes, I do not like that English doesn't provide a distinction between geräuchert and geraucht. So no jokes please, it is not my fault that English has a gap here.)
