Fair. But there's no stepladder that will help you mimic my power of sitting comfortably in trains, planes and busses.

I'm pretty sure my washing machine is the thing that saves me most time. Washing by hand is fucking hard work and very time consuming. I would neither have the time nor the physical endurance to keep all my clothes and household items in a state acceptable to society.

But are you gonna return something for this method??? You said you'd return an integer, yet there is no return statement!

Not only more readable than A and B but I would argue it's also easier to remember who did what a few sentences or paragraphs earlier since Alice and Bob invoke slightly less generic mental images than A and B. For example one is a woman and the other one is a man, maybe even some person or character you know.

And now that I'm thinking about it, the different gender also makes it easier to keep track of who does what because different pronouns are used (at least in English and many other languages).

I can't believe that no one has mentioned the famous shower orange yet. On Reddit there is a whole subreddit dedicated to it.

A cold orange in the shower is perfect – it's refreshing, it smells great and you don't have to deal with the usual mess of eating an orange.

Also: cleaning. I've had flatmates who managed to take the same time for cleaning the bathroom or the kitchen and yet it somehow still wasn't clean.

Ich denke mir: wenn es gut genug für Lessing war, ist es gut genug für mich.

Bin generell auch kein Fan von präskriptiver Sprachkritik und von dieser Verteufelung von Anglizismen. Klar, man sollte es nicht unbedingt übertreiben. Aber warum genau sind Anglizismen cringe, aber wenn man mit Fremdwörtern, die aus dem Lateinischen oder Französischen stammen, um sich wirft, ist man eloquent?

Hilfe, wie komme ich hier wieder raus?

Remember those stupid people in the past, drinking lead-poisoned water? At least we could just stop using lead in pipes when we found out it's bad for us. Good luck finding anything to ingest without microplastics.

KDE Connect

I can share files, links and clipboard items between my phone and my computer. Use my phone as remote control while watching stuff. I see phone notifications on my computer and don't miss calls when my phone is in silent mode while I'm at my PC. It has made my life so much smoother.

Or being able to breathe normally when you don't have a cold.

I kinda can't see many women wanting to share any contact information with the random creepy stranger sitting opposite them on the train.
