  • were descended from people who voluntarily left the area generations ago

    There have been forced deportations from that area for millenia. They're talked about in the Bible and the Romans did it.

  • No, I think everyone should absolutely vote and fuck trump. I'm just pointing out that this meme is misinformation and wrong.

  • Presidents aren't decided by the popular vote though?

  • The downside to that is the epoxy would only be surface level. You'd want to fill any cracks/checks entirely, and pouring it into the hole or flooding the whole slab would be the best way to ensure that

  • Seriously, fuck off with the AI shit. At best it's intelligent regex. And "intelligence" here means a specific thing.

  • Id guess the alternative is to pour them one at a time? If you don't want to flood it but you want the checks filled, that's really the only other option, isn't it?

  • But the iceberg won..

  • picture of two guys kneeling in front of a wall

    Bullshit feely caption that doesn't make sense to any who understands the words being used

    Internet: omg, so wholesome!

  • You are wildly naive if you view things this way

  • That doesn't address the quality of hanging a TV. The things you mentioned are superficial. Being good at hanging a TV is structural. The only way one would know if another was good or bad at it is if the TV eventually fell off the wall or was loose, which one could not see from a FB post.

  • Bud, there's a term around men over explaining things because it's such a thing: mansplaining. There's also a real big trope in many relationships about men trying to solve problems instead of saying "wow that sucks". This behavior is so ubiquitous that it's in sitcoms and has been for as long as TV has existed.

  • That didn't involve you learning how someone can hang tvs better than you on Facebook. Having hung a TV or two in my day, I don't know how one can learn to respect another's ability there based on social media

    Quick edit: I'm also super annoyed at op to tie it to 'positive masculinity' while describing the quintessential male trait - they like teaching or displaying their abilities. Go grill or work on cars with a group of men and see what happens. It's a fucking trope. This nonsense wholesome schtick is gross.

  • Who notices that someone is better at mounting tvs? How does one notice this? What is this made up scenario?

  • Once we can assume the "common person" is well versed in post structuralism, we can have that chat. Until then, I'm good with a pragmatic approach to linguistics.

  • Things have meaning. In the process of expanding the meaning, the meaning is made less pointed. If it has less of a point, it becomes broad (or diluted). So to make the original point, one must find new words, since the original definition has been so watered down and broadened.

  • Nah, she's never been a contender. Unless the DNC rallies behind her and the rest of us agree, she will be a small blip on the radar as she was before being put into the VP spot
