Neither was metacritic, and C. spoken word/slang evolves over time and he thinks it doesn't. |
Erm... All I said was that I've never come across the term "flop" to describe" critical acclaim before. Believe it or not, you can't pass comment on that because that's purely my experience. I was just pointing out that I've not come across it before.
As for the internet, it's roots trace back to the late 50s and it really exploded in the late 60s. You clearly are confusing it with something else, possibly the "World Wide Web" which came about in 1993. Though that was still 20 years ago. I guess having a degree in E-Commerce had educated me better in such topics...
I know it's a shock, but the Internet wasn't invented by Microsoft for the Xbox.
