100% of the precincts reporting, the #MAPS4 #Proposition is APPROVED! | #Propose #Proposal #Proposing #Propositional #PROP #Propositional #Propositioning
'That word' (below-hyperlinked to The Oklahoman's report of MAPS 4's landslide-approval) is built on an even-deeper source ... something crucial that firms the foundation upon which our lexicon stands ...
The word “Proposition” is built on words that mean “a |Setting |Forth, Statement, Presentation, Representation, |Fundamental |Assumption (|Propound)” (when not discussing matters of government-action or city-management, 'to Proposition' (Propositioning)' is too-often taken-to-mean "|Offer Sexual |Favors").
The word is also said to mean "the action of Proposing that something be done," and "Propose" is built on words that mean "to |Put-, Place |Forth (Pro-, |Pose)" (often taken-to-mean "to make an |Offer of Marriage").
Or am I looking at that wrong (or 'wrongly' 🤓)? Tell
me how-wrong/right I am in the comments below 😁

NOTE (hopefully something you should already know, but written
here just to make sure): the display of Kristen Wiig's or Chuck
Norris's approval does not necessarily indicate that they personally
approve or -disapprove of MAPS 4 or the etymology of 'proposition'
or ... anything.
They are actors; most of the actions you see from them &
the statements you hear from them are the words & actions
of 'characters they portray.'
They might express their personal opinions elsewhere, and they
might portray characters whose personal opinions they share;
but they get paid to express whatever opinions they are given
by the producers/directors/writers/editors/others-in-charge-of
-their-scripts.

I appreciate your comment, and I'll probably approve it & publish it soon (give me about a week before you try to post it again when it doesn't publish immediately ... thanks)
