<p>Your point is? Stop it with your pretensions. What is your point in saying the “canconical phrase is, ‘flog an expired equine’”? To show how knowledgeable you are? To enlighten me? Oh boy, I’ve been so enlightened. Don’t correct me unless it’s warranted. Besides, beating a dead horse is far more effective than your pompous way of saying it, “flog an expired equine.” Find 5/10 Americans who understand your phrasing than I’ll listen to you. Plus, aren’t you a little to old for these forums anyway?</p>
