And environment

DISPLAY and PATH in particular.

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.

If you're OOTL, it's a reference to the Republican posting about being a black nazi on a porn site https://www.rollingstone.com/politics/politics-news/mark-robinson-black-nazi-porn-forum-1235107129/

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).

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

Perhaps the endorphin hit from sticking it to your landlord makes it all worthwhile.

I did this in undergrad. Campus security stopped me, I argued, he called his supervisor on the radio. We chatted for a while, and turns out he was from Venezuela, had studied what I was studying, and was an overall pleasant character. Supervisor response was basically, "wow college kids think they're really clever don't they?", and I was asked, politely, to cease.

I felt like a bit of a dick after that.

I used to be older than my little brother.

I still am, but I used to, too.

Minimum wage shouldn't be a dollar amount, it should be a living amount defined in a reasonable and realistic way. (Probably should be region dependent, too?)

Possibly because a zip code implies you live in the US instead of your own sovereign state.

Or something...probably giving these folks too much credit here...
