    I no longer require an extensive vocabulary since discovering that I'm an alpha.

    Ummmm...I work in education and people use big words all the time. Not to intimidate, but because their educational experience and knowledge allows them to express themselves with a larger vocabulary.

    The issue here is that people FEEL intimidated or dumb because they don't know what a word means. Get over it and ask what it means or look it up. It is a great learning opportunity.

    Are you calling me dumb?

    Never. Being mentally challenged is never something educated people bring up in casual conversation. That's rude.

    I find your "intimidation" to be mendacious‎. Please go back to your happy life of brachiation and masticating bananas.

    No, I just have a sense of humour and can pick a joke thread when I see one. Especially when it has multiple pages of hippopotamus pics :)

    Darling. I think after the OP, we begin discussing the actual subject. Sometimes tangents and opinions vary. It's so cute, how you are.
