RE: Outrageous Fortune?

in Proof of Brain4 years ago

great

Here I am sitting and being educated on the philosophies of Shakespeare just because we had the word outrageous.....no offense

But quite a review and so much digging I guess

Sincerely, when I saw your title I thought you were going to deal with the negative part of outrageous as it relates to amassing a lot of wealth and fortune

Now you threw me off the scent and just wanted to highlight the positive part of it, even going to the "Candy" extent

Sort:  

heh, i suppose it was intentionally misleading. sorry if it was boring, but it was the process i followed when researching the word, because i'm a nerd and words are fascinating.

the candy is ridiculous but the story about the name was too good to pass up.

thanks for reading.

Oh, you are a nerd?

You don't need to tell, I can see it for myself

the candy is ridiculous but the story about the name was too good to pass up.

Yes, I agree

thanks for reading.

My pleasure

Nerds and geeks are the coolest. The coolest! Don't ever let anyone tell you otherwise. Hell, being one feeds my family. I'll admit that I came into the article thinking one thing and then left thinking another. Not many people used outrageous on a positive note. I still wouldn't have tied it to an author like Shakespeare.

i'm definitely not upset i'm a nerd. it's all i've ever known, heh.

i couldn't shake the positive angle on the word, even when i understood the context, part of me was that '90s kid thinking, "wow, outrageous!"
