Neil_Asheville 114 Report post Posted May 10, 2006 I came across this glossary of terms and thought I'd share it... http://www.howtocleananything.com/docs_articles/hca_glossay.htm The header is pretty gay, but the glossary lists quite a few of the terms commonly thrown around in here. A lil' help for the REAL NEW folks:) /neil Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Neil_Asheville 114 Report post Posted May 11, 2006 sorry if someone's offended. i sure wasn't speaking about someone's sexual preference. it had a real feminine look for something that really should be more masculine. can something not be labeled 'gay' anymore without prejudice? perhaps Parisianly Peppy would have been better.

PressurePros 248 Report post Posted May 11, 2006 It made me want to dance and chant cleaning mantras. I was offended that you used the word pretty gay. Whatsa matta, you prejudice against ugly gays? Or did you mean rather gay, which offends a different part of my politically correct hard line. I need to know which so I know which way to direct my anger over this appaling word choice.Why do I have a feeling this post is either headed for some slash and burn editing or seven pages of ranting?

jnoden 15 Report post Posted May 11, 2006 In the glossary it states that TSP is a water softener. We all know that hard water does not clean quite as well as soft water. My question is, can this be added to house wash mixes to soften the water and clean more effectively (ecspecially glass that sometimes gets water spots from the hard water? Just curious if anyone knows for a fact if it works or not. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
PressurePros 248 Report post Posted May 11, 2006 Yes. It is in my housewash mix. Too much can have a negative effect and etch glass. How did this end up in a post about gay headers? LOL Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Neil_Asheville 114 Report post Posted May 11, 2006 If I had a bias or motive I’d have put it in the Club House! It was used as a slang term...is this not obvious!?! My slang must be different that what’s accepted in CA? That’s why I don’t live in CA. Asheville has taken on the nickname “Sheville”, our official Chamber of Commerce 2006 tourism slogan is “Asheville – any way you like it”, and it’s my less-than-straight friends I have here that have not a single problem with who they are. The humor I find is it’s the heteros that are usually the PC ones. As for the direction of the thread…hopefully it ends with a pH of 7 with a high “solubility”. ;) /neil Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
