Why would she marry the fish?
Since I invariably wind up getting “name suits” types of comments, here’s the explanation behind it:
Around the turn of the millennium, I was trying to come up with a username to use on a particular site that had a shortish character count limit for usernames. My goal was something related to the fact that I would often be making my points in arguments with “holier-than-thou” types by taking what they were saying, and turning it on its head so the offensive stuff was directed back at them.
I also happened to learn shortly beforehand that many years ago “'ape” was somewhat commonly used as a verb to mean “imitate” or “copy.”
I’m sure you can figure the rest out.

I say milk 'em for all they’re worth. They grift plenty enough, so I’ve got no problem turning the tables.
I was a kid in 6th grade the last time I spoke any significant amount of German while attending Internationale Gesamtschule Heidelberg. With nobody to speak in German with since then, I have forgotten too much of it in the roughly 45 years since to hold even a minimal conversation. I wish that weren’t so, as I still miss that beautiful country (kid me loved exploring the castles).

Of course Prez Grifter does - he’s never at fault for anything.



They’ll twist themselves into double-knots coming up with any absurd “justification” they can to avoid ever admitting they were wrong.
