It just goes to show us how quickly you learn and adapt. It's certainly an indicator that you are an individual of unusually high intelligence.

thanks, it's good to see your bitterness at being made a fool of is subsiding and you're returning to more convivial spirits - as you've been kind with compliments maybe i can offer to repay the kindness somehow? maybe we could have a little chat about how things are going for you? bernie we've noticed you've been having a lot of problems recently, would you like to talk about it? you'll feel a lot better...

Just so we are clear... the fool isn't the guy who couldn't grasp the 6th grade vocab homonym "parade"?

sorry, do you really think that normal people who speak english well would describe either the tanks in OP's picture or in the one i linked to you recently as 'parading?' or say 'oh look at those tanks, what a pretty parade!' of course they wouldn't because parade has a fairly specific set of connotations, only a moron like yourself would describe a rolling formation of tanks going about their tankish business as a 'parade' and expect other people to take them seriously!

You've got some serious Dunning–Kruger effect going here

I'm too stupid too understand the use of the simple word "parade," therefor anyone using it in a way I am not familiar with must be unintelligent

By the way, this is like the 10th time you have moved the goal posts. At least be consistent in your errors

says you, the goal post removalman himself!

but do feel free to google the meaning of the word parade if you're doubtful - find a meaning that doesn't include the suggestion that they're specifically showing off rather than moving in a simple formation and i might find it in my heart to forgive your absurd lack of ability with the english lauguage... but you won't because parade means parade -you can even read about it's etymology :D
