Few Indo-European languages have a word so generic, which can be used of the upper part or surface of just about anything. More typical is German, which has

for sharp peaks (mountains),
oberfläche
for the upper surface of flat things (such as a table). Meaning "highest position" is from 1620s; meaning "best part" is from 1660s. To go

is World War I slang for "start an attack," in reference to the top of the trenches; as "beyond reasonable limits, too far" it is recorded from 1968.
Top of the world

You feel like that a lot, dude, so that doesn't mean anything to me. Also, cherry picking isn't saying "hey, remember in my opening post when I said I can't wait for you to scum read me? there it is," so no. Especially considering I followed up in the same post with how it isn't alignment indicative. But you go ahead and continue buzzword shading. I know it's a healthy passtime of yours.

@Nero can you explain your scumread on me? I feel like I’m being set up. If you flip scum, I’ll look bad for sticking up for you and it will look like you were trying to bus me.

personally, I feel like anything past CHK is very likely to contain scum. I'll agree with Titus that bypass could just be tunneled town and move that down the totempole for now.

Also, what is Not_Mafia doing? This is some of the worst play I’ve ever seen.
I will SEARCH for games with you and N_M to help you policy him.
I can't remember the last N_M post that wasn't bland, unimaginative and lame. Some shitposters are at least somewhat funny. You are the epitomy of the type of poster that nobody would miss if you were to suddenly disappear. You never add anything of value.

I gave Gamma my vote as his reason for your wagon resonated with me. The day was dragging and this has undoubtedly produced worthwhile content on many slots both with regard to and regardless of your alignment, so that's reason number B for the sheep. And Idk man... I'm not getting that town Nero vibe I got from before the Zelda game closed. It's more from the time you were scum and pushed my elimination through.

I've never asked, didn't ask, and won't ask anyone to travel down that golden WIFOM road, guy, and I genuinely feel like you know better than to say that I of all people would assume townreads from people. I think you're equating me saying "there's that Nero charm" with "how dare you not think I'm town" when that couldn't be further from what I actually said.

For a guy all about meta, you ignore the fact that not catching up is meta for some. Or at least it was.
How do you feel about the fact that he's focusing solely on the weakest of the three meta reads on Nero?
