It used to be in small letters but after so many idiots responded to me with “name checks out” and trying to mock me for my name by using it as an insult against me
I made it big and blue just to spite them ❤️
It’s also a good way to figure out who to filter. Anytime someone goes “name checks out” they get automatically blocked. It’s funny that they think they can insult me using my own name, yet all have 1:1 the same response
Love it. It’s so easy to jusy say “oops” and try again. Much admiration to people who can do that and have unhindered acceptance of the world. I hope it spreads around.
Damn, you’re so far up the ass of your own misogyny that you can’t even read critically. Life must be really hard for you.
EDIT: would this commenter saying “All [insert race here] look the same?” be acceptable to all of you? I sincerely doubt it. Why is them ‘joking’ the same about women okay for you all?
It’s an ancient concept, depicted several times over history. The oldest one is an old Chinese tale (and related paintings) that has an emperor cutting his sleeve to avoid disturbing his sleeping lover (a younger man). So famous that “cut sleeve passion” became euphemism for homosexuality in China.
The prophet Mohammed has been drawn many times. It’s a shame that very often the head of Muhammed has been scratched off of the paintings. People still honored the artwork but thought depicting the prophet was a mistake. Persian miniature art is a beautiful world to dive into if art has your interest. Kamāl ud-Dīn Behzād would be a nice starting point.
Well they do say the rabbits small so maybe you just need an average height GF and you’re the small one. It also says she’s giant so maybe it’s a little bit of both you been small her being big
Someone I worked with was super into GW1 and was very excited about the sequel, excited enough that I tried it out at release. I liked it but didn’t have a lot of time so lost interest.
I was quite surprised to see it pop up still being updated the other day!
New gear isn’t better than old gear either, no item levels that constantly get higher like in WoW and FFXIV. Basically a char with only items and skills from the first expansion can still be competitive today.
American English perhaps, “on accident” sounds absolutely absurd to most Brits.
Are you someone who thinks it doesn’t matter if someone mixes up they’re / their / there etc? These things do matter because if you don’t use them correctly people are more likely to misunderstand you.
All of my English teachers were “old” women by the way, nice attempt there to shoehorn in some baddies. Nothing worse than old men, am I right?
The whole point of language is communication and being able to understand others and make yourself understood.
Considering that, most English speaking people would have absolutely no problem understanding the meaning of this post so it’s really not that big of an issue.
However, you do have a point about encouraging the use of good English in the sense that it allows for less confusion, but maybe if you came across of less of a pedantic porcupine who cares more about making fun of others than trying to give useful information then more people would be willing to listen to you.
Just like you were trying to make that point Deceptichum was trying to point out that people use different forms of language in different settings such as being more informal and loose with grammar on the internet, for example. Using their/there/they’re is much less worse than saying on accident instead of by accident.
Stop promoting bad English. English has rules for a reason, you can’t just speak or write however you like, else we wouldn’t get graded in English class, now would we?
Language can evolve all at wants, but Americans are still wrong whenever they say it.
Language has to evolve into something, the Americans seem to be trying to make language evolve away from coherence. You’re probably the type that says using the word literally to mean figuratively is acceptable as well.
Funny how this canard is always directed towards the literate. It’s only ever allowed to evolve one way, usually with some vaguely political bias towards the youth/against anyone over the age of 25, or as some kind of act of pandering to the lower classes or some minority group (willfully ignoring that the spread is in large part attributable to multi-billion dollar media organisations, and far from organic).
I think you have it backwards, perhaps. Prescriptive is like when a doctor tells you what drugs to take via a prescription. That’s the old man one. (Although I think it’s quite often younger people who have recently had the idea of correct and incorrect useages of languages drilled into them!) Oh, either you edited your post, or I’m crazy. :)
Also, while too much prescriptivism is certainly obnoxious, not enough has its own problems. Language needs a certain amount of conformity to ensure were actually having a conversation about what we both think we’re having a conversation about.
Unilaterally occuring in the vicinity of another event at the same time: possibly by chance: -A/N short description of the sorry State of English. Vol. 3
You realize tomatoes are not native to Europe at all? They are native to South America and weren’t introduced to Italy until the 1500s. Even if you consider pizza at all to be Italian, the pizzas we know are a far cry from true Italian pizza.
I guess every culture that came to the conclusion to make some kind of bread at some point in time eventually put stuff on that bread. Like leftovers. The question is, do we call that a pizza… Or is it a flat sandwich or something…
This is amazing. I feel enlightened and the cube is my new religion. I must spread the word and tell everyone that pizzas are toasts and hotdogs are tacos.
Yup. Pizza as a word to mean a flatbread with toppings pre-date the arrival of tomatoes in Europe by a good 1400 years ish.
Just like how ketchup originally was just kind of a type of plant matter derived sauce with a runny consistency that utilized a fair amount of salt. Tomato ketchup was at one point a fairly new fangled novelty as for the longest time the favoured version of it was made of mushrooms.
The tomato more than most tends to just take over certain parts of food culture and drives out all other varieties. It’s kind of the cuckoo of the food world.
Ooh. Looks like it’s available on Amazon in the states. The reviews are good but seems like it’s almost more of a steak sauce than ketchup in texture/taste.
I sometimes watch this 18th century cooking show on YouTube and saw that a while ago and was surprised since we consider tomatoes synonymous with ketchup. IIRC mushroom ketchup has more of a consistency to Worcestershire sauce than tomato ketchup.
I just got one that way, sweet little thing. Already had one cat, that my daughter begged and pleaded for, said “no” because we have 2 dogs already, finally relented on the condition that, “if the dogs kill the cat, you can’t hold it against them because dogs are gonna dog, and they were here first.”
One dog absolutely fell in love with the cat and they’re inseparable now, and the other dog didn’t give a fuck either way. Then suddenly door cat shows up and adorabled its way into our lives…
Incredibly apt too lmao. I was not a cat person whatsoever, treacherous self-centered critters. I had no use for them. But I’ll be damned if they ain’t fucking cute and lovable once you let your guard down lol.
The cat distribution system is broken in my area. There are almost no strays, we were “hunting” for one for a couple of months until we decided to go to a petsmart to adopt our boy
The prevalence of coyotes and other predators in my rural mountain town means that there are effectively zero strays around me. We had to drive an hour plus from our house to a shelter at the closest “big” city to adopt our latest.
Yeah, those poor 90’s kids were dealing with some unacknowledged or untreated intergenerational trauma, parenting, a cycle which they’ve been working on breaking. It’s really hard to have emotional regulation and not take out your feelings on someone else when you have no pre frontal cortex development, yet, and you’ve never had that exampled for you, by parents. Not having a go at you, at all, or refuting you, your statement is entirely true, they (we) were assholes at times. I just find the second half to that story hugely uplifting.
