you're a moron, it is already implied that it's a verb as "vacation", they don't need to write it again. the other terms are added on afterwards.

It'd be helpful if he knew how to read it.
Well it all it boils down to is that I think I am right and you think you are right. It’s obvious that we will never agree on the point on whether it’s a verb or not. You alkey have no cause to question my intelligence, silera does because she probably holds more degrees than me.
I can understand you defending your women though.
she didn't need your help though

no, you see, if vacation was not a verb, it would not even be listed as a verb. the dictionary is not obligated to tell you that THIS WORD CAN BE A VERB IN THIS CIRCUMSTANCE, since there is a seperate entry for "vacationing, etc".
