Most messy disasters could be avoided by a two-step process. Take a dump and then flush it down Use toilet paper and then flush that down (I mean, if you're going to use toilet paper that is; obviously the bidet would avoid this whole issue) It's normally the toilet paper that's the culprit...

I was gonna say, "I'm still sober enough to drive to the store" but actually I just dropped a bunch of tortilla chips on my stomach when I was trying to eat them so maybe I'm not actually all that sober.

I wonder which time zone that is; mine says you said that at 10:39 AM.

There's also the use of the ampersand (e.g. males have all the power & reject most females); I've just been leaving that as is cuz that's pretty 18th-century too.

What about random capitalization, like people used to do in the 18th century? Maybe that was even accidental in some cases, e.g. when early drafts of the U.S. Constitution were written by hand in a way that might have been ambiguous or prone to error instead of saved by a word processor that...

So apparently when phrases like minimum wage are used as adjectives, you put a hyphen. https://www.dictionary.com/browse/minimum-wage Gonna add a hyphen there. In contrast, I'm removing the hyphen here because it's being used as a noun rather than an adjective. I've seen some writers use...

This sounds like it could be the topic of a much longer narrative about what was done and how this all played out.

I heard he wanted to give out $2,000; not sure what the details about that are or if Congress would cooperate. My guess is that the House might vote against it just to spite him, so he couldn't claim it as an accomplishment. If Trump proposes it, it must be somehow racist or fascist or...

@Oxblood One thing about loserdom is that it can be hard to define just what makes someone a loser. E.g., in that film Idiocracy, who is the loser, the yuppie-looking SWPL dude with the frigid wife who doesn't want to have his kids, or the redneck who has kids out of wedlock and lives in a...

Does that mean they actually have it, or could they have had it and fought it off? Would these same people test positive for it a month or two from now?

Here we have @FeminismIsCancer , who speaks French; @adolf512 , who speaks Swedish, right? Then @Oxblood , you speak some classical languages right, although obviously not as a native speaker; but maybe you reached a high CEFR level, if you were transcribing texts? Native speakers, or those who...

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Doctrine_and_Covenants https://en.wikisource.org/wiki/The_Doctrine_and_Covenants This is my favorite book of Mormon Scripture, because it shows how their doctrine evolved over time, e.g. as people fell out of favor or got reinstated or whatever. They were able to...

Yeah, that's quite possible; the document is probably buried somewhere in my stuff, but when I went to court awhile back, they used as justification for sealing the search warrant that my "victim" might be subject to harassment by the media due to my political beliefs that had been in the news...
