And think of the vomit!

That level of change took centuries and I still understand it.

The internet speeds up change to the point where we’ll lose intelligibility.

Yep, real childish of me to insist that our goddamned primary communication protocols remain consistent because it would cut down on fun improvisation.

Yeah, I missed “to mean”. Looks like at least one other guy did, too.

Sure, but Jesus Christ fucking up part of speech is a childish mistake to embrace. Maybe we shouldn’t just go along with every fuckup people on Tic Tok lean into.

It is the proper usage.

Then your example should have been “this house is aesthetic”. Aesthetic is being used as an adjective.

Saying “this house has a pleasing aesthetic” is correct. Aesthetic is being used as a noun. “Pleasing” is the adjective. While the aesthetic is not defined enough to your liking, it isn’t being used as an adjective.

Use your original wording and replace the word “aesthetic” with the word “quality”. “This house has a pleasing quality” is a proper sentence. Sure, there’s ambiguity as to what that quality is (is it the shape of it? Is it the color? Perhaps the landscaping?), but it isn’t grammatically incorrect.

Who are you, who are so wise in the ways of science?

George Lucas gonna George Lucas.

Mace Windu getting killed was the turning point and point of no return for the three film character arc of Anakin Skywalker. That’s a long way from “needlessly”. Sure the character didn’t have to be killed, but the impact of him being betrayed and killed was enormous. The plot of the third film (and the entire prequel trilogy) culminated with his death scene.

So post non-US centric content.

Also speaks to their average reading comprehension and ability to follow basic instructions.

ITT: I’m not a part of the two generations you specifically asked for, but here’s my life story anyway.

Holy shit, is that the guy from the ice cream episode of Modern Marvels?

Doomerism. Not even once.

Of course the only reasonable answer is all the way at the bottom.

I tell you, the worst part of Lemmy is the users.

OK.

As someone who has lived in multiple states I can confidently say that your preconceived notions about our country are not based on reality.

That is NOT the typical experience in the US

In certain parts of Wisconsin, yes, but not the rest of the US.

Holy shit I had to do a lot of scrolling to get to the real answer.

See, that gets in the way of the doctor’s tee time.
