What is the "other" man or woman called?
Homewrecker?
There's more than one way to skin a cat. And I happen to know that's factually true.

[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risque (and frisque), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.

If I want to become a cloud of bats, does each bat need a separate vaccination?

I'm sure there's a snarky (as well as grammatically correct) answer to this, but I also wanted to call attention to one of my favorite cheating terms, the "cuckold."

Oh, unless you meant cuckold, which would be the spouse NOT doing the cheating.

Shit's all sorts of different now.
Right. I love cuckold. Makes me think of Yul Brynner.
I meant the homewrecker.

What is even happening?
Technically, I think it's okay to refer to the partner as an "adulterer" or "adulteress." An adulterer is a person who engages in the act of adultery. The act of adultery is defined as sexual intercourse between a married person and a partner other than the spouse.
If I were trying to differentiate between the cheater and his/her partner for something I was writing, what I called the unmarried participant in adulterous sex would depend on the context.

Now tagless for your comfort.
Asshat's argument was that I didn't produce anything he can use. But he wasn't paying me to produce anything. He was bascially testing me to see if I could figure out their spreadsheet. Which he didn't think I could do to his satisfaction. He said I would be compensated for my time.
I'll see how he responds to my last email but this makes me so glad I didn't get the job. I just want to get paid for the time I put in.

Asshat's argument is full of shit. Unless you agreed in advance on a flat fee upon delivery, he owes you for your time. End of story. (And I suspect he knows it, which is why he's being an asshat now -- he fucked up, and he's prefer not to have to pay for it.)
