Or “How it feels”

I feel like there’s been a gradual increase in people saying things like this (“would of” instead of “would’ve”, “apart” instead of “a part”, etc)

OhTheMoose,

That and the unfortunate increasing failure of the education system.

OhTheMoose,

I’m tired of seeing that argument to validate incorrect usage of words that already exist. Words mean things. People using a language incorrectly don’t get to just decide that the words they’re using mean something else now because that’s how they meant it. That’s not “growing and evolving”, it’s just using the language incorrectly and being too stubborn to admit a fault in themself and instead try to change the language to fit their lack of education about the language and its usage.

The words “could”, “should”, or “would” followed by the word “of” is completely nonsensical and meaningless. It is a misunderstanding/misinterpretation of “could’ve”, “would’ve”, or “should’ve” being heard audibly because they sound similar. “Apart” literally means the opposite of “a part”, and, again, comes from a misunderstanding from hearing the word spoken rather than seeing it written down because it sounds the same.

A perfect example of language evolving is the word “another”. It literally is the words “an” and “other” pushed together to form a single word and has the exact same meaning as that. Another example is the word “bosun”. It literally means “boatswain”, and comes from the word being shortened down in spoken communication, but is a completely made up word and has no prior meaning.

Do not confuse incorrect usage of the language as growth and change.

I’m sorry for coming off as an ass, I literally did not sleep last night and I’m very tired.

OhTheMoose,

I would be pretty happy about getting my nails done too

OhTheMoose,

To extend what TheGreenGolem said, what you have understood as “could of” is actually a contraction of the words “could” and “have” into “could’ve”

OhTheMoose,

Some say they’re still playing hot-cold to this day

OhTheMoose,

That’s how jfk really died

OhTheMoose,

All good! “Fell” is the past tense of “fall”. Aternatively in some cases you could say “did fall”, though in modern English that’s usually used as an affirmative to a question about the fallen status of the chocolate (e.g. [which is short for the Latin “exemplia gratia” , meaning “for example”], Question: “Did the chocolate fall?” Answer: “Yes, the chocolate did fall” or “Yes, it did fall”).

There are actually other (irrelevant) meanings of the word “fell”; as an adjective in “a fell beast” for example, “fell” means “fierce, cruel, terrible, or dreadful”; or as a verb meaning “to knock, strike, shoot, or cut down; cause to fall” for example " to fell a moose" or “to fell a tree.”

OhTheMoose,

Oh I don’t like that at all

OhTheMoose,

Everything I’ve known is crumbling around me

OhTheMoose, (edited )

No no, that’s magnitude and direction

Edit: youtu.be/A05n32Bl0aY?feature=shared

OhTheMoose,

It’s tough because we’ve had “free” for so long of so many services. But I honestly think yes, as long as it was something very low like $5/month at most.

OhTheMoose,

Share the load

OhTheMoose,

Oh, I thought you said “romo”

OhTheMoose,

What’s wrong German owl, don’t cry :(

OhTheMoose,

It’s a whale egg

OhTheMoose,

Let me see if I understand:

Blue and red vase don’t like each other and are about to fight

Red vase smashes blue vase, killing him. Man in the background sees.

Man is sad about red vase smashing blue vase, red vase doesn’t care.

Man tells red vase he is trash if he keeps smashing other vases and being hateful, he’s going in the trash, red vase doesn’t care.

Man tells red vase he loves him, red vase doesn’t care.

Red vase tells man he hates him and the blue vase.

Man smashes red vase.

Man puts red vase in the trash. In the background there’s a picture of red, blue, and yellow vase, and a big picture of red vase (going by shape).

Did I miss anything?

OhTheMoose, (edited )

I saw that too, I thought it was a mannequin lol

OhTheMoose,

It looks like an old, oooold children’s book maybe?

OhTheMoose,

I’m just a Ho

Actually I’m “Ho Wgo HD”

OhTheMoose,

I’m not an engineer by any stretch, but I imagine it would be the downward force of the weight of the rest of the building on the top-middle of the butt. The resulting pressure would hold the rest in place.

OhTheMoose,

OhTheMoose,

I feel like the free PS+ games have really gone down in quality for a while now.

OhTheMoose,

You might enjoy “The Surge” 1 and 2, they’re souls-like in gameplay but in a more industrial-punk atmosphere. There’s also the “Darksiders” games, I enjoyed all 3 of them. They’re action-RPGs, but “Darksiders 3” is closest to a souls-like. “Remnant: From the Ashes” and “Remnant 2” are also very good fun.

OhTheMoose,

I saw it as more of a statement on how producers/writers/whoever perceive their audiences. They think that just seeing Batman beat the shit out of a guy isn’t exciting/engaging enough, but having him then say something “relatable” will evoke a positive response.

OhTheMoose,

You have perfectctly described what I have been trying to grasp for years. I’ve found myself liking less and less so many movies from the last ~20 years, but I just couldn’t put my finger on what specifically the reason was. I knew I didn’t like the writing, and especially didn’t like the humor (in particular how forced it felt), but I couldn’t determine quite why.

What I did know is that it felt like writers saw their audiences as big dumb idiots who can’t detect any nuance in writing, and need everything spelled out for them. It made many movies unwatchably unenjoyable, to the point that I have only seen… I think 5 of the MCU movies (a few of the early ones, a fee of the more recent ones).

Thank you for helping me to understand.

OhTheMoose,

Also found “arm” and “Sam”

OhTheMoose,

Always Roy

OhTheMoose,

Halls of Torment

A surprise to be sure, but a welcome one!

Does the FOV fix work for the gamepass version as well? I have it installed on a separate drive from C, and I’m not seeing Starfield in My Games.

Edit: figured it out, I forgot my default Documents folder lives on the E: drive. Had to manually navigate to the C: location.

OhTheMoose,

65° while I sleep, 68°-70° while I’m home, off while I’m not

OhTheMoose,

Who is Johnny? Is there a video or such that he’s from?

OhTheMoose,

I want my meme communities back, but I don’t want to create them, I don’t have that kind of commitment lol

OhTheMoose,

That makes sense, probably a “What’s your favorite video game?” or similar question

OhTheMoose,

Handtis

OhTheMoose,

Technically any amount less is not as much

OhTheMoose,

Why is kehrtwende the real name? Doesn’t it basically just mean “turn around”?

OhTheMoose,

“U-turn” isn’t more complicated, it’s describing the motion literally: making a U-shaped turn

OhTheMoose,

Mmm, mouth-watering hamburgers

OhTheMoose,

To the bone

OhTheMoose,

Many were increasingly of the opinion that they’d all made a big mistake coming down from the trees in the first place, and some said that even the trees had been a bad move, and that no-one should ever have left the oceans.

OhTheMoose,

Do you feel like you’re a worse person for learning about porn at such a young age? I also learned about porn around that age (2nd~4th grade) and I feel like it had no impact on my life whatsoever as an adult.

The funny part of the post is referring to “teaching crabs how to read” as “forbidden knowledge”

OhTheMoose,

Honestly though that’s the exact kind of thing I would want to know- the real you, not the you that tell me you are.
