We don’t need gender specific words for things that aren’t gender specific. Does the aviator use their penis for flying the plane? If not why do you need to tell me with their title if they have a penis?

I hate the word widower. It sounds like a verb. A widower kills married men and makes widows. Widow works fine for everyone.

Island has an ‘s’ in it. This was started as a stylistic choice to make the word look more Latin despite the fact that the English word has no Latin roots.

This is proof enough that English is a stupid language for the unwashed masses. There are no rules, all that matters is how it is used and understood. Anyone who tries argue that “literally can not mean figuratively” or that gif has to be pronouced a specific way is an idiot trying to force logic into a system that has none. Don’t waste your time trying to explain that you know the only true and proper rules to Calvinball.

That ‘s,’ that’s what broke me.

I’ll happily do it for $1 million a year and do a hell of a lot better than musk. Considering the difference between $1 trillion and $1 million is pretty much $1 trillion I’m basically working for free.

And there are far more dollars in 11 billion than 100 million.

59 seconds is 1000000000000 pico seconds away from a minute, so I’m not sure you could say 59 seconds is “so close” to a minute.

Miss a turn.
