I'm a bit of a fan of humbugs but where the heck did you find that site, Esme? We have sweets in this country - not candy!
First site that popped up on a search, could not be arsed looking any further.
Maybe next time ZB doesn't understand the use of a word he can ask politely rather than being confrontational with ''WTF are you babbling about?" and attempting to ridicule the poster by editing out every other word posted in his quote.
Maybe then I wouldn't have the urge to bitch slap him quite so hard.

He understands the word and also understands that your use of it is nonsense.
I like your MacDonald's analogy though, but you got that wrong too - you went to KFC and asked for a Big Mac.

No, you are wrong...In context, she was using the word "humbug" as the candy (or sweet).

If that's really the case then tell me where this entitlement to the candy comes from.
And why can't I get a Big Mac at KFC?

And here I cant even spout Hammer Tenets in a Thief forum without getting the 3rd degree...
Mwahaaa

Yes, that's really the case.
There is no entitlement, just choice...Just like how EM isn't entitled to community support, just because they happen to slap "Thief" on a sub-standard, freedom-restricting, stealth-action game.
EM has made its unsavory choice...and now, unsurprisingly, most in the community are choosing not to like that.
