When people use “different” with a preposition other than “from”. (Different to, different than)
I know it’s not technically wrong, but it just feels so wrong.
Also, when people add a phantom R between two words. “I’m a big fan of cinema ‘r’ and video games.”
Both stem from me not being a native English speaker, I think.
That’s a small thing?
I live in Canada, where eggs need to be refrigerated, and yet I’ve never seen a fridge with an egg holder. I already have an egg holder. The box they came in.
I may be missing something, but why can’t you have the bank account and phone number both in Lebanon?
In a ranked choice system or other better voting system, yes.
In the current system, voting for anyone but the least bad choice among the two that stand a chance is almost like giving your vote to the one that has the best chances, regardless of your preferences.
Look up the spoiler effect in elections.
Or, CGP Grey has an excellent explanation of the whole thing.
That is not the question. The question is: it’s a binary choice. People should be aware that not voting helps the worst candidate win. Why not vote for the less bad candidate then?
Wait, does it? Are joules in thermal energy per kelvin a purely linear relationship?
Omelet composed of >60% frozen vegetables and seasoned with soy sauce.
It doesn’t hold itself together at all and it looks disgusting.
How is that unclear?
Dicarbon monoxide. Wikipedia is shockingly poor in information about it, but “stable” is certainly not the first word I’d use to describe it.
What kills me is when people will mix the two in a single context.
“Between eight and 13 percent”
NO. If you’re writing one number in digits, you need to write them all the same way.
Oh yeah, definitely very old stuff, huh.
I regularly say “from the 20th century” when I want to emphasize the age, the irrelevance, of my lack of knowledge of something.
I don’t know crap about cars, so sometimes, someone would ask me about an old one or something and I’d say “not sure, mid-20th century I think”.
It’s a funny way to talk about it and it almost masks the fact I just tried to get away with a 25-year window.
Although in a more rude manner I’ll also say I don’t care about some 20th century movie or something.
Oh yeah I pick up stuff with them sometimes but I wanna try the monkey experience lol
I’ve got a feeling we’ll see Bush v. Gore style recount shenanigans or worse. Trumpist “stop the steal” people have begun to infiltrate the election process, right?
It’s just a really well-known phenomenon. People thinking they don’t stink because it’s the smell they’re used to. I’m just speculating, and there’s of course a chance I’m wrong.
As for how I know I stink, i have a much keener nose than the average. I can tell when my hair stinks because it’s been too long since my last shampoo, for instance, a thing most people can’t even tell about others apparently. Even though it’s the grossest smell ever.
But even then, most of the time I can’t tell my breath stinks. It probably has to do with how close the mouth is to the nose. Mostly, I’ve associated sensations in my mouth with instances where I was told I stunk and work from there.
As for what I eat, oh yeah, I absolutely do eat carbs a normal amount. But I really don’t think this should have much of an effect when I’m not eating. I have trouble imagining bacteria having a stock of food for when I don’t eat.
Tbh if I could I think I would turn on the gene for prehensile feet.
Just to try. Looks fun.
I thought horses not being able to lie down for long was just competition horses! It’s all of them?
I do intermittent fasting.
My breath stinks quite a bit on days I don’t eat. The bacteria develop very well on those days, since they’re not being washed off as often. And that’s before “keto breath” even comes into play.
Point is, your mouth bacteria are fine producing all sorts of “charming” smells even without food.
You probably do stink. The two of you are just used to it.
I’m a woman and I was born in the 1990s. I do live in North America though.
