I have NEVER reported someone on this forum. But having just been mentally assaulted by a recent post, I'd like to know how to do it.
Thx.

I think deport flags it for the mods to look, I deport, then block, and hide, then refresh and waa la, they’re gone.
Handy info (not being an asshole?) - it does sound like waa la so maybe it's meant to be funny? Voilà definition is - —used to call attention, to express satisfaction or approval, or to suggest an appearance as if by magic.
Thanks, guess I forgot how to spell that!
Thank you.
No, you are certainly not an asshole here.
The more people who learn that that voilà is not spelled “waalah” or some phonetic variation thereof, the better.
Voilà means "here it is" or "here you are". (J'ai entendu le français à l'école.) And it's generally a hard "v"; no "w" sound.
Moi aussi, fren. I know how it’s pronounced (it’s Latinate, but not Latin), and how it’s mispronounced.
And I also know that voilà actually means “there it is.”
Voici is “here it is.”
Derived from la, meaning “there”, and ici, meaning “here”.
