OMG that's awesome! I am totally incorporating that phrase into my vocabulary!
thanks!
Oh, it was just the kind of remark I couldn't resist.

I do wish you'd change "populous" to "populace" in your signature line. I know you're quoting, but that would be a normal kind of edit for a quote.  Or stick a "sic" in there.

  • I'm sorry, Dave. I'm afraid I can't do that.

Done!
Politicians and bureaucrats are considered productive if they swarm the populace like a plague of locust, devouring all substance in their path and leaving a swath of destruction like a firestorm. The technical term is "bipartisanship".

Thanks !  My proofreading eye is happier now, but shouldn't that "locust" be plural?
