Distraint or distress is "the seizure of someone’s property in order to obtain payment of rent or other money owed", especially in common law countries.
There was this bird chirping constantly, flying here and there, even close to me while harassing some nonchalant cat licking or nibbling on some food it found. I'm thinking maybe the cat caught the bird's partner, hence the distraint, so I chase the cat off. Then I search for remains like some feathers, but find nothing. I say sorry to the bird and move on with my day quite sad.
Couple hours later, same bird comes back, beak full with twigs for a nest and a partner sporting the same. They look around and chirp for a bit, then fly off together.
So now I can't help but wonder, did the bird use me to scare the cat away from their nesting area?
The bardbarian on the other hand needs enough charisma to charm even the most unlikeliest of opponents and the constitution that can withstand their passion.
Nah. Assholes will be assholes regardless of their mode of transportation.
The car/bike is an instrument and a conduit that helps express one's assholeishness, but that state of mind exists even on foot where it gets even more up close and personal.
Yeah, but it's not just "rocks" in space, it's everything. Or what we consider as such.
If you see light from distant stars, doesn't it mean there's radiation from there to here? There's lots of stuff in space, you just don't see it as noteworthy.
Nah, it's humans. Humans get farted on the most. Walking on foot? You're walking through farts. Using public transportation? Farts. Going inside any building open to the public? You've guessed it, farts.
The more crowded a place, the higher the concentration of farts.
Please remember that no matter where you go, someone will fart in your general direction.
It's an older word, but I used it poorly.
