What's really neat linguistically is that "helicopter" isn't a compound of "heli" and "copter," but rather "helico" (as in helix, helical) and "pter" (as in pterodactyl).
"Rebracketing" is when this happens (i.e., the split in the word is moved in colloquial language).
Seems more analogous to clothes than housing
clothes can be "too big" in the sense that the extra size is detrimental to the function, which is somewhat different from houses.
And it's pretty common to have buy-nothing groups in cities or even at large companies. Got a loooot of hand-me-down clothes for my toddler from friends, family, and randos in the neighborhood.
It can be extremely luxurious if you pay.
I'd rather get to my destination with my wallet still in tact, but you do you.
The next crowdstrike mistake could happen at any time...
Sounds like the tagline to an action movie.
"...today is opposite day."
You're not just being inconsiderate to your landlord, though
'Monster' fatberg found blocking east London sewer
Perhaps the endorphin hit from sticking it to your landlord makes it all worthwhile.
In California, the major utility provider was found guilty in relation to wildfires, and fined.
Guess what happened to electricity rates...
I also added a Makefile for mine (LaTeX), and it would add the commit hash to the front page (with an asterisk if the repository had uncommitted changes).
So, if I gave a draft to someone and got feedback, I'd know exactly which revision it was.

I used to be older than my little brother.
I still am, but I used to, too.
As a social construct, I like that I can be anywhere in the world and know that around noon is probably an appropriate time for lunch, etc.
I think an issue here is that taxonomic and colloquial definitions don't always agree.
Spiders are colloquially bugs, but they're not taxonomically "true bugs" (which is itself a colloquialism for Hemiptera). Tomatos are colloquially vegetables but taxonomically fruits...but afaik vegetable is a purely colloquial term anyway.
And as someone else in the thread mentioned, colloquial berries are not always taxonomic berries.
So...colloquially, "plants" sorta means, "macroscopic multicellular living non-animal thing," but taxonomically it's something else.
