It's a corruption of the word ''Taverna'', which means Tavern.

It's "taberna" in the original Latin.

But yeah, this sucks.

Why do people have to use language like that in the thread title? It's no wonder kids today can't speak or read English. I can't imagine how confused non native English speakers on this forum are after seeing this thread title.

As for the topic, idc either way. I'm starting to get used to it.

I think we all know why. Affirmative action. Him and his homeboys haven't been visiting the library for a dictionary, I'll wager.

It's a pre-huffed kitten, and a ginger one, at that. Very dangerous.

No you cannot have it back. This is a great move and long overdue. To finally open up OT and not find the 3 threads I'm interested in reading closed because people were *gasp* arguing about something is a breath of fresh air. You may post and read where and how you like-why do you hate freedom?

Current count (53 Tab vs 10 Civ). Give it time there will be one OT again.
