Nothing wrong with the french and their very affectionate women.

What a summer that was.

Sigh.

Skillessness? Only when it comes to politics. Just look at all our crummy leaders we've got.
Besides, we had half the planet under our control, but we lost our way by becoming corrupt.
It's your turn to fall. Tongue

Whatever your opinion on our politicians, they piss all over US senators, their only pre requirement seems to be a lack of knowledge of anything.

Nope. A misuse of something is to use it in an unintended manner, usually for a personally understood adverse effect. Such as misusing my socks as a substitute for bubble wrap.

An abuse of something is to make excessive use of a thing to the point where it has become damaging to or difficult to maintain the supply of. Abusing a woman tied up in your basement would not be misusing her unless you thought it was.

America can fall all it wants to... I don't classify myself as American for reason of having been born on American-claimed territory or having lived in such.

Skillessness in all matters, actually. Such as law, parenting, sex, marketing... there is no end to it Heart

I prefer having paper and a pen on hand when it comes to Greek.

So if I banned you for nothing, would it be an abuse or misuse of my mod powers?

Law, parenting, Sex? Some wild assumptions there. You're not exactly perfect either. Tongue

Extraordinary claims require extraordinary evidence - Carl Sagan

Mankind's intelligence walks hand in hand with it's stupidity.

Being an atheist says nothing about your overall intelligence, it just means you don't believe in god. Atheists can be as bright as any scientist and as stupid as any creationist.

You never really know just how stupid someone is, until you've argued with them.

Abuse. A misuse of banning would be akin to using such as warning substitute.

Your laws are kept by being a nanny state, your parents can't parent and rely on laws to do it for them, and I've yet to meet a brit that's any good at sex.
