English Dictionary


No English dictionary has been able to adequately explain the difference
between the two words COMPLETE and FINISHED, in a way that is easy to
understand.

Some people say there is no difference between COMPLETE and FINISHED.

However, there is a difference.

When you marry the right woman, you are COMPLETE.

And when you marry the wrong woman, you are FINISHED.

And when the right one catches you with the wrong one, you
are ---
COMPLETELY FINISHED.

You can throw a few more words in there to really confuse the description

ended, total, final

cheers

Next someone will get on line and tell everyone that the McQuarie Dictionary does not have the words gullible or naive listed.  I wonder?
