The phrase "based off of." It's always been stupid. I'm still ahead of the curve because many people still think it's OK. It's not.

I can't say for sure, but it certainly seems like the people believing these things speak in ways reminiscent of people with delusion disorders (e.g., schizophrenia). The patterns of how they use words and concepts just feels very delusiony to me.

Depends on where in Canada. Toronto? Vancouver? Montreal? Oy, insane real estate prices. Bumfuck, Alberta? Manitoba? Rural anywhere? Much cheaper.

And regardless of the price I could afford the utility and maintenance on a condo or apartment in a major city in Canada (if I could ever afford one) much more easily than on a castle in France. Not a great comparison.

My kid would like to still have a dad. One who is, ideally, not in prison or dead.

I'm sure it's a hard problem to solve. However, I'm still not using a product missing a critical feature just because the developer found it too difficult to include the feature. Sympathy to the developer but also I need that feature.

If I believed in a god I'd ask them to save me from the baby communists who see a sickle and hammer on a flag and insist they must have represented utopia.

First, I dig this meme. I'll probably share it elsewhere.

Second... "POV" just means "hey look at this," now?

Remember, kids: Don't do genocide, or else after only two years of murdering people wholesale the UN might say something about it and let you keep murdering.

I've taught statistics for over 20 years. I flipflop on this constantly, sometimes in the middle of a sentence. Even more disturbing: I don't have a consistent position, at least grammatically, on whether it's singular or plural.

Well, this is fucking horrifying, and it won't make the news because of the other, louder apocalypses currently happening.

So this is saying Palestine originated with Nazis and Soviet-style communists. I guess some people just missed all that critical thinking we keep trying to put in the education.
