    An old friend[^] who was a self-described gardener once said a weed was anything you didn't want in the garden. I believe this did not extend to bloody pigeons and stupid moggies but I feel they fall into the same category.

    I've always said a weed is something that is growing where you don't want it to. For example I want grass in my garden, unfortunately most of it is growing in the flower beds whereas the lawn is so bald I have to let the grass grow and attempt a comb over.

    Some men are born mediocre, some men achieve mediocrity, and some men have mediocrity thrust upon them.

                Now that's sweet actually :) Yeah that's right (in Turkish) "Tashakkur" is basically a Persian word. Though Persian is not my mother tongue, I like using some Persian words in my convos :) To me, Persian and Turkish languages to seem have close resemblance (with respect to both words and accent). Not sure though.

                      :omg: And if Google told you it was beneficial to your health to jump into a volcano ... ? Kidding (maybe?)! It is a common misapprehension but there is a clear distinction. A tree is fractal, with both roots and top branching out from a single large (relatively) trunk. A shrub has a crown of stems of equal size arising from either a central or diffuse root system.
