I was like, ‘I want us to stop using that term. I’m not a ‘girl gamer.’ I’m just a gamer.’ The reasons I love gaming are the same reasons everyone loves gaming.
While it is clear that we need to make some adjustments to protect Social Security for the long term, it is disingenuous to say that the trust fund is facing a crisis.

I’m perplexed, though, by your application of the term ‘negative’ to my figural imagery.

I’m confident President Obama will continue his unambiguous commitment to the Jewish state in his second term.
I’ll help repeal Obamacare in my first term, or go home, because you deserve a senator who gets the job done or gets out of the way. Repeal or go home. That’s my pledge to you.

It’s hard to be successful over the long term if you’re not unified and there’s not that synergy between coach and front office.

Everyone may have some advise for the RBI. Some may advise, ‘Cut your lending rates and raise the deposit rate.’ How will a bank function? We take a medium term view. The bank has an 80-year-old history. I don’t want to destroy it for a few decisions.
I was born in ancient times, at the end of the world, in a patriarchal Catholic and conservative family. No wonder that by age five I was a raging feminist – although the term had not reached Chile yet, so nobody knew what the heck was wrong with me.
I don’t like the term ‘colour-blind’ – because I don’t want people to be blind to my colour.
The term ‘alpha female’ originated in my field of animal behavior, but has acquired new meaning. It refers to women who are in charge, for example, by flirting and dating on their own terms. It is also used maliciously for a loud-mouthed, controlling woman who has no patience with deviating opinions.
Hard work – I mean, does anybody use that term anymore? Laziness doesn’t fly. It’s all in the practice. It does take work and it ain’t easy – but man, the rewards!

There’s nothing fun about stuff like estate planning, getting mammograms, or talking to a guy about long term disability insurance, but do it anyway. Trust me, the stress of not having done the above is prematurely aging.

Given the difficulty of resisting such temptations over the longer run, a proper concern for the welfare of congressional souls may well be the ultimate argument in favor of term limitations.

‘Oh and Oh’ is a tennis term… It’s a nice way of saying you took your opponent to pieces.
Would I be the 3rd term of Rudy Giuliani or the 4th term of Mike Bloomberg? It’ll be neither. It’ll be the first term of Joe Lhota. We’re all different.

We agree with Simpson and Bowles and others who have looked at this. What’s necessary is to stabilize the debt and then work from there. You can’t balance the budget in the short term because to do that would be to ratchet down the economy.
I am clearly more popular than Reagan. I am in my third term. Where’s Reagan? Gone after two! Defeated by George Bush and Michael Dukakis no less.
Charity is a fine thing if it’s meeting a gap where needs must be met and there are no other resources. But in the long term we need to support people into helping themselves.
‘WASP’ is the only ethnic term that is in fact a term of class, apart from redneck, which is another word for the same group but who are in the lower social strata, so it’s inexplicably tied up with social standing and culture and history in a way that the other hyphenations just are not.
Of course China is an important new market for Tod’s, and of course we need to succeed commercially. But I believe the way to do that is not to aim to deliver results in the short term by thoughtless expansion, but instead to explain to the Chinese people what our brand is really about.
