Is it possible to carry around a philosophy that led you astray? “Powerless” does not mean “deprived of power. I can do anything that causes two plus two to equal five, but something is in me making it happen. Even if that person cannot do anything to prevent me from doing anything, the other person can not. In focusing on the condition of thwarted desire, you are confusing the ability to know and what desires one; power, or power, to know.

In your case, Peter’s situation is not one of power or its lack – it is his lack of desire to control his wife who is pertinent. As such, “egalitarian” might be applicable.

For no reason. However, the phrase “Hail Mary” may have been used after reading. In football, a Hail Mary pass is one made at extreme range with no obvious guarantee that it will be caught. An image of a quarterback making prayer before throwing the ball is not depicted

as being true if the image is real.

I personally would go for bucket or bucket full.

Is the bucket too big to handle on an overgrown thimble? How would it all appear to depend on the context. A thimble is generally considered small, but oftentimes only a few thimbles are used. A consequence of a constrasting measure is not necessarily enormous.

All the cicadas which make noise are males, and their noise can be liberally interpreted as “Hello!! Hot mama?! Can I ask you over here? They

are not just queen (though they are not ruled), they’re queens. The term “Queen” is reserved for the single egg-laying female in a eusocial species community, such as bees, termites and ants. Can a cicada lay an egg?

Even among eusocial insects, there is no species that I’m aware of which elevates a single male to permanent status as consort to the queen and thus there are no “king” insects.

If John and Joe had spent a few minutes in the same room, they would be both present in the same room. When these two are not together, the one whose room you are in is out of the room. If they are in the room and one of them is out of the room, can they be in the room or both?

Who is not in the room with John in January 1999? Why joe is not present in room? Do the girls really like each other and are in a room?

If John is not around, he is not around. If Joe is in the room, John is not. If Joe is not in the room, when he is being attacked by John? What was one of them? The either/or construct implies a choice: Either A, or B, and not both.

Why does John not sing in the room? What happened to joe? When I go to John Kennedy’s room it can be explained as John doesn’t even know

I’m in it, and Joe must also be here.

Is there really a difference? “Hope” implies desire on the part of the speaker (usually without immediate expectation) that will be fulfilled. Other words (see the details) don’t define their meaning, except for it seem to be one of hope. “Faith” means ‘epiphany’, but of a peculiar kind. What about faith?

When a woman tells her ex-boyfriend, “I hope he dies, god bless him” does not mean that he has survived?

I have faith that he will be punished. I would have a good answer if she said it. Which is the best response. If she has filed against him and the DNA evidence is conclusive, or if she poisoned his coffee in revenge, she would say something like “I expect he (will be punished/die).” ” Faith generally implies belief in a process which is outside one’s control. This may mean the supernatural, as in religious faith, or it may mean a process over which you have no detailed control, such as faith in the legal system.

The use of “no use for no coal company” is a classic example of a double negative resulting from a attempt to be emphatic.

A simpler form of a subject is an implied “i”, and a more grammatical version would be; I haven’t any use for the coal company. Since only a single coal company has been showing interest in her land “, since only a single coal company has been showing interest in her land. I haven’t any use for coal companies. ”

It’s actually triple negative, rather than double negative, and so the negative overall meaning is preserved.

What do you think about Barmar’s answer? I understand it’s not like a button is turned to enable or disable by something. It’s just that the concept of a button being enabled or disabled is so far from most folks’ concerns that enabledness is going to sound funny. What is disabledness? By the same token, sounds even worse.

Avoiding an unfamiliar construction at the cost of some brevity, you might try button enabled/disabled status.
