...I'm very confused

Snowflake, why did you say "ew"?

Ahh, I see.

Cerberus

Eww normally expresses disgust.

@SnowFlake Bother me? How? And why would I be their enemy? They do not concern me.

WendiKidd

Yes, I'm with Cerberus. I'm confused, what harm do you think they will cause?

Cerberus

Hmm how do they bother the site?

I'm not a huge fan of the Islamic Revolution, that much is true.

I didn't see them.

WendiKidd

@SnowFlake, if these people are spamming and posting lots of bad questions, they will eventually be banned I assure you.

Cerberus

I'm basically just glad that they're far away, hehe.

@SnowFlake No doubt!

They'll get a temp ban at first, then longer ones. I think the SE staff can do IP bans even if it gets too bad.

So don't worry, if they abuse the site it will be taken care of :)

Cerberus

Yeah, flag their Islamic asses off!

WendiKidd

Well if you have evidence and are really worried about this you can post a question on meta.stackoverflow (or I guess EL&U meta if it's just happening there) and try and get it resolved.

@Cerberus, is there a way to send private messages in chat do you know?

@SnowFlake Why do you think they're after you specifically?

Cerberus

@WendiKidd There isn't.

You can create a private chat room, but anyone can read it.

WendiKidd

@Cerberus Okay, thanks :)

Cerberus

Alas.

WendiKidd

00:43

Ah, pity!

Cerberus

@SnowFlake Very annoying.

I thought you asked for deletion because you were angry at people closing/deleting your question on EL&U?

WendiKidd

Ah, clearly there is history here I don't know about!

Cerberus

By the way, why didn't you simply delete your Yahoo address from your other profile?

@WendiKidd Indeed!

WendiKidd

Or wait, are you user37324? I'm confused about why some people's usernames are user[random number] but if your account was deleted maybe that would be why?

Cerberus

@SnowFlake You clearly have children!

Because that's what all parents say.

WendiKidd

00:45

LOL I am so confused here you guys.

Cerberus

@WendiKidd Yeah, I think that happens after a deletion.

@WendiKidd Hmm by what, exactly?

WendiKidd

@Cerberus Ah, okay, well that makes sense then.

Cerberus

Hmm.

SE accounts have always been a mystery to me. They never quite do what you expect them to do.

WendiKidd

Haha. I can agree with that

Cerberus

Great!

Ok! We shan't.

WendiKidd

00:48

Okay, I officially don't know what we're talking about here, haha. So I'm going to pop out for now. See you guys later.

Cerberus

@WendiKidd Later!

Bye!

What is the reason of this question being down-voted continuously? Anybody has any clue?

Q: Pronunciation of "gibberish" and "direction"?

I heard two different pronunciations for both the words. I heard "direction"; "di" is uttered as "dai...." as in "die" and "di" is uttered as "di...." as in "did". I heard "gibberish"; the sound of "g" is like as "g" sounds in Greece and also the sound of "g" is like as "j" sounds in Jesus. So...
