This is a question The B3TA Confessional

With the Pope about to visit the UK, what better time to unburden yourself of anything that's weighing on your mind by posting it on the internet? Pay particular attention to the Seven Deadly Sins of lust, greed, envy, pride, posting puns on the QOTW board and the other ones. Top story gets to kneel before His Holiness's noodly appendage, or something

Do you mean 'describe' ?
Spelling and resulting copy and paste fail if you do.
Not that I care.

ooh, the irony..

If you want to be pedantic......
which as you are on here I'd be surprised if you don't, then no, I don't mean describe. If however you meant to say "do you mean describING", I assume you mean in place of "remembering", then the answer would be no, I meant remembering. If however you are suggesting that the word "describing" would be a better word to use than "remembering" then possibly, I would say that would be slightly (although not a huge amount) more accurate, although either one generally expresses my intent.

On a lighter note I would like to confess I am spectacularly verbose and defensive, and describing is clearly a far better and more accurate verb for the purpose than remembering, so whilst I accept that you have stolen all of my win and left all of your fail in it's place, it isn't fair and I'm taking my ball home.

I think it's more to do with the last word in your first paragraph - 'decribe'

But you are right 'remembering' is a nice word.
