Damn, where's that dictionary...?<g>

Hmm. I couldn't find "bagatellise" in about 7 or 8 online dictionaries... I
give up - what does it mean?

Yet-another grunt neanderthalesque (you can shove your dictionary up the
arse) post from Eldred. when !=Arguments then Flame_over_language. It's a
nice escape route you use.

Anybody using a little common sense understood what he meant, I know what's
a bagatelle and it's obvious what he meant by that. But hey, I guess you
have anything to say here except the same old boring routine.

You should use a real English dictionary instead of American English...in
which case you would find out bagatelle means a trifling sum...therefore to
bagatellise (sic) would likely mean to trivialise.

What exactly is your problem? Are you better than all of us here? It must
be hard for you to make friends. I'm sure I'm opening a big can of worms
here, but really, a little less arrogance will get you a long ways, pal.

don't say anything, if you dont' have anything constructive to say.

by **Douglas Elliso** » Wed, 12 Dec 2001 19:38:51

So if the best you've got to say is "WSC? Vapourware" - which has already
been posted a dozen times in as many days - perhaps you should shut your
trap - because the rest of us are sick of hearing it and are bright enough
to get out there and found out whats going on ourselves

However much you might want to see the above things - I can assure you that
Chris and Tony probably want to show you them just as much - but they cant -
end of story.

We've already seen more screenies, movies and interviews than any other
title - to whats the problem anyway?

SO many people allways giving me cryptic 'I know a lot about WSC but I
can't tell you anything' answers out there..
I've got the feeling I'm the only one who doesn't have a beta version
:)

As I said, in the beginning Chris and Tony were close to the
community, open for feedback and keeping us updated, and I think that
worked well, everybody was very enthousiastic about WSC.

But then there was this information stop - haven't heard anything
about WSC for months, except for a lot of rumours from 'insiders'
which allmost allways turned out to be horsecrap.

So.. just don't be surprised about the daily WSC status posts here.
And you can't blame people for asking.

But you can if 3 posts down exactly the same ***y question gets asked.

Ooops... a gallicism. If my old English teacher reads this post I'm dead
meat!! ;-)

In fact both the noun and the verb are gallicisms in my language (Dutch)
too. A bagatelle is something of little importance, something one mustn't
take into account. So to bagatellise is to overlook importance in order to
be able to ignore.
