For me, it may be that the toilet paper roll needs to have the open end away from the wall. I don’t want to reach under the roll to take a piece! That’s ludicrous!
That or my recent addiction to correcting people when they use “less” when they should use “fewer”
I know this is unpopular. Have had several long winded discussions on this with friends and folks alike. “All religions are cults”, doesn’t matter the person is alive, dead or imaginary, you’re just following a charismatic leader(s).
Canon is important to science fiction and comic book adaptations because the rules of those universes operate so wildly different from our own that it is important to put more work in keeping things consistent.
But the question becomes: Who dictates the canon?
The original creator or the IP rights owner?
Gene Rodenberry’s Andromeda would have been amazing if they hadn’t fired the first season writer and remade the show for syndication.
He posted a ‘It’s not canon but if I were still an employee it would be’ post and it was amazing and so much better than all the seasons that came after.
So in my mind, the original creator’s vision was the true vision and the bastardization of corporate greed that resulted is an abomination and all involved should be whipped.
By that logic most of Star Trek isn’t canon. Lemmy would be in shambles!
So then let us agree that some rights holders take better care of their IP than others. Earth Final Conflict is another example of this terrible trend.
YYYY/MM/DD
It’s the only way that makes sense to parse. Imagine if literally anything else worked with the minor amounts first.
This thing costs 25 cents and 3,000 dollars
The time is currently 45:9.
This program is v11.7.9 and the next release is v0.8.9
I don’t like “mixed number” format, like 1/4 and 648,3. I’d much rather say “five hundredths, two tenths, six ones, four tens, 8 hundreds and 3 thousand”
I guess a lot less recipes would get overseasoned though.
What you’re saying makes s lot of sense, but how do you speak dates?
When did you start working your current job? It was in 2022, Aprill 11th
What’s your anniversary date? We were married on 2012, September the 9th.
People don’t talk that way, which is how writing them down got to be the MMDDYYYY format in the first place. Technically, it was MMDDYY exclusively until mid 1999.
