Well, I don’t agree that making an offensive joke is necessarily being an arsehole, but I suppose you are right in principle.

Now he’s Sitting Straight, I suppose. Sorry, that’s in awful taste.

If we ditched the daft names?

I used to know someone who learnt Dutch from age 60, and granted he’s very sharp, but if he can do that, I’m sure you can do this.

Jesus. You can’t even see a solar eclipse everywhere when it does happen. Travel really does broaden the mind, I suppose.

Bluetooth gives me the same sensation as a stove with faulty knobs. It’s like there’s a veil between me and the machine.

I don’t know, ask them yourself?

I can! But it’s often like I can’t say “God love him” without some self-assured milksop craning his neck to tell me God can’t love him because God doesn’t exist.

I thought we’d snuffed this shite-arse logic out with “toxic masculinity”? They said “acting like a 2007 edgy internet atheist”, not “being atheist, which makes them edgy”.

See, I could reply to this with “nothing, because there’s no afterlife”. That’s what’s irritating: taking figures of speech or offhand comments based on this old idea of God and opting to be a humourless little twerp about them.

Can you not just leave it out for a bit? It’s irritating now.

If you decide to use Mastodon afterwards, there’s an instance where a bot reposts everything a given Twitter account posts called bird.makeup.

Amazing, thank you.

I actually use their WordPress package, so I take it that kaiboshes the whole operation? I can’t just store it in the rest of the memory I’ve been allotted?

That’s the most arrogant reply you could’ve written. And I’ve just clicked on your name and seen your other comments, and it all makes sense. Wind your neck in and go outside.

No, I meant it. “Two forty-five” is a figure of speech. If you were giving the time in exact terms you’d say something like “it’s been two hours and forty-five minutes since midday/midnight”. You’re just stuck in this idea that your way of expressing it is the right one.

I feel this comment betrays a misunderstanding of what language even is. Saying it like “two forty-five” or whatever is a figure of speech as much as “quarter to three” is.

Same in English, except that we say “half past” for xx:30. 08:35 is “twenty-five to nine”.

They chose 12 precisely because it’s easy to divide!
