I think you can make an argument either way of whether it would be better to have $1 or $100 bills.

I was more interested in debating the meme format XD

criitz,

Sorry, I didn’t mean to insult your intelligence in any way. Just trying to have a friendly chat also. Sometimes tone can come across wrong in text. My bad

Heres my example

  • [wrong] police can get away with any crimes they want (child POV)
  • [average] police can’t break the law even though they are police (the way it ‘should be’)
  • [enlightened] police can get away with any crimes they want (reality)

The middle person thinks they are smarter than the left person. But it turns out the left person was naive but correct, as shown by the right/enlightened person having the same conclusion. IMO anyway.

EDIT: also, the point of the example you gave is that Frankenstein the Doctor IS the monster (metaphorically) because he created the actual monster - I think you have misinterpreted it.

criitz,

The point of the meme format is not that the middle guy is right. It’s the opposite.

criitz,

Agreed. I bought the lifetime membership back then and I still have to deal with ads and upsells. Unfortunately they are still the most comprehensive tab source.

criitz,

The brother and sister had a questionable relationship

Americans consider themselves Americans, but especially in the early days of the melting pot, cultural identity, and specifically that heritage was important. That’s why Americans are always saying they are Irish or Italian or whatever. The actual people from those countries laugh or get defensive about Americans who have never left the US claiming that heritage, but there’s a reason behind it.

criitz,

Yeah they were still Europeans when they names them. This should be the Obama award meme

criitz,

Just pay attention to what makes you happy in life and don’t sweat the rest so much

criitz,

There are FOUR more? I never even watched #3… Without Macaulay what’s the point.

Im American. I might read the number 615 as “six hundred fifteen” in some cases. Like if I was counting.

But I would not say “six hundred fifteen giraffes”, I would say “six hundred and fifteen giraffes”

criitz,

Thanks for spelling out why this felt wrong to me

criitz,

I’ll be damned if I’m gonna eat a blue egg

criitz,

The word phobia may also refer to conditions other than true phobias.

For example, the term hydrophobia is an old name for rabies, since an aversion to water is one of that disease’s symptoms. A specific phobia to water is called aquaphobia instead. A hydrophobe is a chemical compound that repels water. Similarly, photophobia usually refers to a physical complaint (aversion to light due to inflamed eyes or excessively dilated pupils), rather than an irrational fear of light.

Several terms with the suffix -phobia are used non-clinically to imply irrational fear or hatred, such as Xenophobia and Homophobia

criitz,

Cuz the world is messy and language is messier. Not everything fits into neat OCD boxes

criitz,

My favorite of these were the old Rocky And Bullwinkle cartoon

criitz,

You leave Conan alone, he is a treasure
