Please sir- I did not say "Clinton and cutting off heads"
I begin to understand one of your many problems. You apparently do not have the ability to understand colloquial English. Whether that is because you are learning English as a second language, as it appears, or are, as is more likely and less pleasantly, merely being deprecating, I do not know for certain, but it is obvious that you are oblivious when in comes to common conversation. You have much to learn.
For example: Parados did
not say you said "Clinton and cutting off heads." Did he? No, he did not. He was listing the two oddly unrelated subjects of your post and clearly indicating, at least to a native speaker of English, that you were avoiding the subject at hand.
Perhaps you should go to your tutors and have them work with you on giving other person's posts honest appraisals and removing the stilted and arcane rhythms from your own writings. That, we can only hope, will clarify your own thoughts and avoid the appearance of you being in an ESL medium level course. If in fact you are purposely being as obtuse as it seems, you ought to pursue other hobbies. Try pretending to be a tourist on one of your city streets, you'd be good at pretending to be lost.
