After all, what other September 11 attack could one possibly
be talking about?
I thought there was an attack by the US some exact number of years before 11/9/2001? I seem to recall some heated discussion in the aftermath over
which had
the most fatalities.
The coup against Salvador Allende, IIRC. For that matter, the Catalan national day on September 11 commemorates a military defeat as well.
Now, for something serious to argue about: what is the correct plural of the word "clitoris?"
You could use either the regular plural "clitorises," or the Latinate plural "clitorides."
And the Latinate plural of "penis" is "penes," not "peni." (Just like "testis" and "testes.")
(Does "anal-retentive" have a hyphen?)
