Yes, I believe you outed my faded memory of English classes from like 4 decades ago. Yikes, that sorta was weird to say.

I'm going with, the Aardvark name is so unique and special that he gets a free capitalization ; )Also too, I wouldn't know an Aardvark from a Wombat.

Tucker Carlson is proof of a lot of things. Like "If you make a potato square enough, it becomes semi-sentient" and "Natural selection doesn't always work out" and "There are people out there that can make even Seth MacFarlane feel embarrassed and ashamed"

I wonder how the NRA feels knowing they and all their precious, precious Bear Arms they have so many rights to would never exist without 'MURI---

Nope. CHINAAA!!

Is it a proper noun? I'm pretty sure it's just a noun. It's an animal, like a monkey or a bear. "While in South Africa, I saw an aardvark in broad daylight, which was odd because aardvarks are nocturnal animals." If it was an aardvark NAMED "Aardvark", then you'd write, "I saw Aardvark the aardvark in broad daylight, which was odd because Aardvark is a nocturnal aardvark." ...And now the word "aardvark" is beginning to sound like "marclar" from that one South Park episode with the aliens who have one word for pretty much everything.

MAKE MARCLAR MARCLAR AGAIN.

Tucker Carlson has always been a preppy dick. I had the honor of being in the CNN studio while Jon Stewart at his lunch.https://www.hollywoodreport...

Crossfire was cancelled and Tucker got fired, but of course he found a home at Fox.

I’m sorry I responded to your serious post with a joke, but it was just too appropriate to resist. I knew some ex-pat South Africans back in the 70s, when many (white) families up and left in despair at how their country was being run. (Australia was a popular choice for re-location.)

And by economic anxiety you mean fear that his business model, based graft, corruption and laundering money for the Russian Mafiya, might be revealed. Right?
