Is it too wankerish soundering to use the term fait accompli in an undergrad history essay?

 

[FiFi_LaRue]

Nah, go for it.

 

[frona]

No, that's a most commonly used phrase for.. erm... that type of thing. Foregone conclusions, I suppose.

 

[Gambra]

That's ok so. I hust thought it might sound a bit odd appearing in a undergrad paper. I actually loved writing this essay though and getting it finished today means I can go rock on Saturday! Hooray!

Gambra's use of the term 'fait acomplis' (Gambra, 2009) reveals a latent discourse of academicism.

 

[Gambra]

The espousal of the discovery of the latent discourse by stevenoblunt reveals the obvious decline of the standards in academic literature. 1

And then I woke up ...it was all a dream
That always worked for me.

 

[Gambra]

It sadly doesn't in a History/Politics course I'm afraid. Would be interesting to submit that as a theory for some events though.

You're referencing is in a heap.

It's 12:30pm and I've been writing all day. Gimme a break!

I've used the word 'nay' in every essay I've written since 5th year. It can be difficult sometimes.

 

[Gambra]

I try to get the phrase "X/Y fanned the flames of discontent" into most things. Works really well most times.

 

[flashback]

and here's me giving people jaunty looks and knowing nods when I get "indeed" into a sentence.

this could be an extremely nerdy joke. I'm not sure if you're a nerd though.

I think I'll rep on the safe side.

Nah it wasn't that but sure thanks for the rep.

It was the use of a common error to highlight a common error.
