Except there’s not a single example of that - the people who “go broke” are the racist/sexist/anti-LGBT businesses that get boycotted into oblivion. If you want games without politics, make your own boring game with no relationship to reality. Poor little triggered baby.

Not to be a dick, but if you don’t play the game, how do you know the “original point of the game”? Ignoring that, though, there are WAY MORE marginal words in the dictionary than in the Scrabble dictionary. Scrabble has pared it WAY back from what you’d get in the OED, for example. And no one’s telling you you can’t

Your point about “ok” seems to be that it should have been legal long ago (which I agree with). But your original point was that they were adding too many “non-words” and SHOULDN’T be adding new ones - that’s what I was disagreeing with.

You do realize that obscure words are still words, not “non-words,” right? The Scrabble dictionary is a significantly smaller subset of all English words than a real reference dictionary contains.

How do you “prove” a crime that takes place when two people are alone and leaves no measurable evidence? She says he did this, he says he didn’t. Obviously it can’t be prosecuted in a court room, because no one can PROVE anything.

“Do you defend that site’s right to revoke my membership for posting left-wing/progressive posts?”

“The PGA doesn’t make money every time a new player picks up their first clubs.”

Oops. Someone didn’t check the dictionary.com link before they said that...

There’s nothing “above board” about a thirty-something adult non-family-member giving dating advice to a 14-year-old. It’s not a crime. It IS creepy. I would not be super cool with a dude in his thirties buddying up with my teenage daughter, no matter how platonic it truly is.

Yeah, that’s what a boycott is. Racist restaurant? STOP GOING. It’s one of the oldest forms of protest - I’m delighted we could introduce you to it.

“Delta is pretty good at resolving these claims.”

“No racism detected here.”

“It’s not illegal to call the police on people”

Well, we’ve spotted the child rapist in the room: it’s you! You sure do have a potty mouth. I deleted all your replies - too icky. Stop raping kids, dawg.

I don’t know who let him out of the greys, but yuck. What a weirdo. Yeah, it’s totally normal to be friends with 13-year-olds when you’re in your thirties, “returning the screw.” Suuuuper normal.

Wow, what an impressive attempt to shut down discussion. You’re on the autism spectrum - we get it, you don’t understand social interactions or propriety AT ALL. You don’t need to prove it by posting a million of the same weird comment.

You save the phone numbers of 14-year-old girls in your phone and give them DATING advice? really?

So at the age of 37, you befriended friends of your 14-year-old sister, asked for their phone numbers, and you stay in contact with them via text to give them dating advice? If so, you’re ALSO a creep. If not, then this is not a comparable situation.

I don’t believe that you actually feel that common cognitive phenomena are “way more exciting” than communing with actual spirits, confirming that an afterlife exists. It definitely doesn’t, but if this proved it DID, there’s no way that would be less exciting than the real explanation.

If you think there’s no “squalor or filth” in Mrs. Maisel, you must have watched a different show than I did. That’s certainly not the focus of the show, but I don’t think it’s been excised from their version of New York, either. The Gaslight is routinely portrayed as a disgusting pit, with foul bathrooms including a
