Of course bugs are viruses.

of course = taken for granted

Isn't it offcourse?

I was wondering why THeOnlyOne had written 'of course bugs are viruses'. Your explanation of the phrase 'of course'
was totally uncalled for.

You all seem to be in a tangle. Huda seems to be thinking that it should be "offcourse" which would not make any sense; Roy was confirming the meaning of "of course" something. And I am not sure why The OnlyOne thinks the bugs are viruses.

I think its better if we leave of course and offourse and bugs.... ( Actually I was saying because I have seen offcourse and not of course)
We're supposed to be discussing idioms.... I don't think we should make it a point to be argued... ;)

a wolf in sheep`s clothing

- a person who pretends to be good but really is bad
"Be careful of that man. He is a wolf in sheep`s clothing."

[Huda-M]

a lone wolf

- someone who prefers to spend time alone and has few friends

The boy was a lone wolf and spent most of his time alone.

Actually bugs/insects like mosquitos spread many diseases so I call them virus. I think we should simply leave this topic now.

Watch out! That's not a sheep! It's really a wolf. (Cool pic!)

I'll have to shave him first to be sure it's a wolf....
