*!*~*!* Good night everyone :)

12:44 am

hurshy

are you calling a pi4/7 a procurer?! lol

12:44 am

cybernan

yep

12:44 am

hurshy

that's hilarious

12:45 am

cybernan

it is what one does - the term does not specify a commodity :D

12:47 am

cybernan

on my way :)

12:48 am

hurshy

how long does it take for it to be used only in one context before it ceases to hold the broader meaning?

12:48 am

hurshy

(she mused)

12:51 am

cybernan

It is the polite term I've always known to be used for the pi 4

12:51 am

cybernan

Just as "ladies of the evening" was the polite term

12:52 am

cybernan

different generations and all that, I guess

12:53 am

hurshy

yeah the younger generations don't care about being polite

12:54 am

cybernan

didn't mean that -- just that certain usages and phrases do die out

12:55 am

cybernan

niters

12:55 am

hurshy

i wasn't saying YOU meant it, i was just saying it. i mean, not EVERY kind of polite, but, i feel like my generation and younger don't care about polite in this sense. we'd rather just call a spade a spade

12:55 am

hurshy
