The Lemmy Project has been activated. You are our first and last line of defense!
It’s a joke an the futility of linguistic prescriptivism. I might not have represented it well but the whole punchline is that this ship has sailed long ago.
The difference in survival probably stems from a single hyphen.
Mint grows like a fucking weed. Silphium grew like a fucking-weed.
Good time to plug Dara O’Brian: don’t do that. One day you’re gonna have kids and need these words in their normal context. Your kid is gonna come in with muddy shoes and you’re all “oh my. You’re a dirty girl.” and then you’ll ask yourself wtf you just said to your own kid.
Some words and expressions need to stay with their original meaning! These include:
Tonight it’s just you, me, a bottle of olive oil and a “seven step program”.
Technically no. A slice needs to have been - well - sliced at least once. There is however no clear requirement how large the remaining slice needs to be…
It just recently hit me out of the blue that Ellen Tigh from BSG is the same actress as one of the vampires in Kindred the Embraced, a show that I only ever saw one episode of.
After watching John Wick 4 it kept bothering me to no end where I knew that German Clan leader from. It kept rattling in my head during the drive home to the point where I considered, stopping somewhere and googling it. I decided to let it go and google it when I’m home. 5 minutes later my mind screams: Tonks! Nymphadora Tonks!
I looked it up and it can indeed go up to 13.5% inclination but they can only run powered cars, no attached wagons. That reduces capacity.
I don’t want to shit on trams. I don’t like this bus vs tram bashing in either direction. I’ll happily take either improvement over a sea of cars…
How is a tram safer?
The tram supremacy doesn’t lie in the inherent nature of the technology but in the way we treat it! Trams get:
In short, they are (usually) treated like public transport. Busses on the other hand are too often treated like just another car that’s thrown in with the rest but also has the obligations of public transport. If you treated trams like that (sharing the road, waiting behind cars) they would be even worse than busses.
I wanna see how you get a while loop to actually go to infinity. I’ll wait…
on second thought, no I won’t.
No it’s not harder to grasp, just less concise. Summation and Product notation exist for the same reason we don’t say “a discernible but subtle level of humidity” and just use “moist” instead - it’s more convenient. People can be taught to readily understand “moist” or the summation notation. It’s much harder to teach people to read the longer notation more quickly.
Which makes the integral sign ∫ a non-discrete for-loop
Off course, fellow human!

The secret source of humor isn’t joy but sorrow. - Mark Twain
The situation is dire but not serious - Viennese proverb
Life is too important to take it serious. - ome other proverb
Levity is good. It relieves tension and the fear of death - T80
Humanity has a long tradition of lightening the mood in dark situations with (sometimes inappropriate) humor. Internet memes are simply one of the newer iterations…
