Here's your English lesson for the day:
"Complete" or "Finished"?
No dictionary has ever been able to satisfactorily define the difference between "complete" and "finished."
However, during a recent linguistic conference, held in London, England, and attended by some of the best linguists in the world, Samsundar Balgobin, a Guyanese linguist, was the presenter when he was asked to make that very distinction.
The question put to him by a colleague in the erudite audience was this:
"Some say there is no difference between 'complete' and 'finished.'
Please explain the difference in a way that is easy to understand."
Mr. Balgobin's response:
"When you play a long and trouble free career in the NRL, you are 'complete.' If you piss all over someone’s house and rape the Dog, you are 'finished.' And, if you drop the ball in front of the posts in Golden Point at the GF, you are 'completely finished.'"
His answer received a five minute standing ovation.
