“Does the adult control the shopping or does the child?”

You are right about that, but how does this fact relieve parents of accountability for their offspring?

Yes, they absolutely should.

You’re right. Negatives are better, but they are slow, boring, and not as “satisfying” to perform. I wouldn’t rule out assisted pull-ups entirely, though. Maybe just do them last so you feel like you got some reps in. Motivation is important.

That’s a terrible reason to carry cash. Why not just live somewhere else?

No way. Cash is an obsolete nuisance, and tipping for everything is bullshit. I’d rather pay more to cover decent wages than ever think about tipping again. There are even a couple of restaurants I like that I refuse to go to anymore because they are cash-only, which means they are either cheating on their taxes like…

Sounds reasonable.

Sounds pretty cooperative to me, if they are a plumbing company.

That’s the thing with coming up with a good vanity plate. If the only person who can tell what it says is also the only person who can’t see it (driver), what’s the point? The real clever ones are funny, unique, and don’t require any gymnastics, mirrors, or decoder rings to figure out.

They probably won’t, but neither will anyone else on the road.

If anyone asks why my muddy Jeep has no front plate attached, I just shrug and say it must have broken off and I didn’t notice. I just zip tie to the front of the jeep somewhere once a year for inspection time. Front plates are ugly and dumb.

Nope, just read the sign in the thumbnail. Got a summary?

Why does anyone care what third-person pronoun they are called? If they are referring to you in third-person, they probably aren’t talking to you. If they are talking to you, you already have something they can refer to you as—your name.

Almost everybody does. It’s usually their name.

I am ok with this. It is way less awkward or confusing than using “they” as a singular pronoun.

“My pronouns are NOT up for debate.”

This is fine, and less awkward than singular “they,” but only for people who use a pronoun for its intended shortcut purpose and then carry on with their day/lives. For everyone else, it is apparently terrible.

It would probably be easier to get people to stop getting bent out of shape over the perfectly fine gender neutral pronoun “it” than it would be to get everyone on board with this nonsense.
