in line with your take: artificial orange is the best artificial fruit flavor . strawberry i can Stand but orange candy is the only non-chocolate kind of candy i actually enjoy
real orange is pretty sour/bitter, thats why they oversweeten it.
If asked how you are:
You are doing well. Not good. If you really are doing good, it's an active thing that makes a difference.
Otherwise, you are doing well.
The use of 'literally' as hyperbole is fine.
The sentences "I laughed so much I died" and "I laughed so much I literally died" mean exactly the same thing, but only one of them will have people respond with tHeN hOw ArE yOu TaLkInG tO mE iF yOu'Re DeAd?
We’ve just run out of superlatives. Unfortunately we seem to have a society always looking for the extremes and craziest behaviors to the point we have a churn of “new words” like brainrot with everyone desperate to coin the next “fetch” and trying to make it happen. So stacking hyperbole on superlative on brainrot is what we get.
Sometimes a game being a little unbalanced can make it more fun.
Horsepower is a stupid way to measure how powerful a car is. What is this the 1800s?
We should ditch ethernet, coax, and copper completely for data transmission. Everything should be fiber cable. Fiber internet to the house, fiber throughout the house, etc.
English language pedantry hot take? As long as a reader can understand, spelling a word the way it is pronounced is more correct than spelling it the way a dictionary spells it. The word only ended up in the dictionary spelled some way in the first place because some people were already spelling it that way. But it doesn't mean their choice was correct then and forever. Let language evolve.
Pineapple on pizza is fine. If you don't like it, you don't have to eat it.
"Steep learning curve" means quick to learn, not difficult. The curve is learning over time. If the curve is steep there is much learning over short time.
Doesn't mean easy nor hard, just quick.
Also it is more of a wall, if you fail to learn quickly you are out.
