But if c is right, then c is wrong.
No, the Earth looks smooth to the naked eye when viewed from that distance.
Not Philly and not a cheesesteak.
Yeah, only the West Coast knows how to make a Philly cheesesteak, made famous by the West Coast city of Phil Francisco.

The best evidence for the fact that unsweet is a shortened form of unsweetened is the fact that that is how it is used.
But tea is the least of your problems. You seem to have a touch of NPD. You may be constitutionally incapable of recognizing that you have a problem (indeed, that is one of the symptoms), but I hope, for your and your family’s sakes, that you are able to get help.
This has to be a bit you’re doing. If not, I really feel sorry for that family.
Adjectives can be shortened. Like in the case of “unsweet”, for example!
Do you also think they have to remove lead from gasoline to make unleaded gas? (Sorry for using the word “gas”; we know how you feel about shortened words.) “Un” is a prefix that can just mean “not” sometimes, as in “unintelligent” ;)

Work Reform@lemmy.world•There’s a lot of confusion about what democratic socialists want, and that’s fair. Even within our group, there are differences among us.
1·5 days agoNo, I didn’t hear that. Did he try to spin it in his favor with his word choice? Because that would be the opposite of what this post is doing.
Unsweet is a shortening of unsweetened.
TV is a shortening of television. (abbreviations are a type of shortening)You’re right, though. You didn’t know how to respond.
Words are often shortened. It reduces the number of vowels and makes communication quicker and easier. Do you also have an issue with these?:
math
gym
bike
fridge
TV
ad
lab

13·7 days agoAnyone thinking this is real (“dOnt TheaTeN mE wiTh a gOOd tIMe”, “They’re trying to scaremonger”) is a fucking moron. Republicans are evil and often stupid, but not stupid enough to word an ad like that. They’re well aware that “corporations and wealthy owners” has a negative connotation and “workers and the public” has a positive one. Please be more skeptical.
Is that what the story claimed? That a coyote just pushed a button?
Coyotes are not as trainable as dogs because they didn’t evolve alongside humans for thousands of years.
The story is fake on its face. It involves so much more than a wild animal waiting until it’s safe to cross the street. A coyote supposedly learned the difference between the crosswalk symbols, understood the connection between the button and the symbols, and learned and bothered to use them. Then, when humans gathered hours of video footage of this miracle, they only showed us a single grainy still image.
I’m disappointed in some of the comments here (not you - the whole comment section). People need to be more skeptical.
Sadly, I heard all subway dogs got eaten by the alligators in the sewers.
I’m familiar with humans creating cargo cults. Regarding your crow anecdote, are you familiar with the idea of anthropomorphization?
this would absolutely get coverage from real journalists
Especially with video to show us.



Sacre bleu!
