soar vs sore

Postby adragons on Tue Mar 13, 2007 6:03 pm

I'm not usually a grammar nazi, but every comment I read lately has said "Soar loser". Lets just clarify:
soar : to fly, rise rapidly, glide.
sore : painful, sensitive, causing misery or distress.

I know some people would like to be a soaring loser, but since you can't fly, its 'sore loser' :-(

Well, when you say that you are soaring sometimes it means you are happy and uplifted... so it could be a "soar loser" as in happy loser not taking to hard and not being a sore loser ;)

I'm a soar loser... although I don't like to lose but it's ok, it's just a game.

I'm on a 4 game losing streak AND just got my butt kicked on another game... but oh well :D

that would be "soaring;" soar is a verb, while sore is an adjective.

ie That guy is a soaring loser.

Did you do the civil war, i remember how on one of the first battles the confederacy used logs or something like that to trick the UNion into thinking they had more cannons than they actually did, the Union didn't attack long enough for the confederate forces to get away. Though i doubt using logs as fake cannons would help at all on conquer club

Public chat, I can say that it only looks like I have 1 guy there, but they are heavily fortified and they pray to the dice gods ;)
