  I hope somebody replied with “hi bias, I’m dad”

  No, you see he is the literal human embodiment of the concept of bias and was letting us know. The other tweets are unrelated

    It’s true, that’s why his role as Tuvok was so impressive. The exact opposite of type casting

  This is a pet peeve of mine

  • ApathyTree@lemmy.dbzer0.com ⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago

    A peeve of mine is the term “pet peeve”. 😅

    If something bothers you so, why the fuck would you keep, nurture, and tend to it as a pet?

    I propose it change to haunting peeve, because you don’t want it, can’t get rid of it, and it exists regardless if you think about it or not.

    😁 (I’m not super serious about this, but “pet peeve” really does low-key bother me)

      I can support this

        Omg you are an actual person. Every time I see your username under a post I, for whatever reason, think it’s the community name.

        I’ve seen a lot of your posts I think 😅 thanks for what you do! 🫡

      it’s actually short for petite peeve, because it’s something small and unimportant. Or maybe it’s not, but you don’t know.

      It’s partly a joke (your favourite peeve, for example) and probably a reference to the other, now archaic, meaning of pet:

      fit of peevishness, offense or ill-humor at feeling slighted

      I think you can accept idioms as they are or you’ll be endlessly feeling like one saying or another has got your goat

    I’m a little bias short and stout, here is my handle here is my spout

  They separated Tuvix on the bias and Tim got more of him.

• RaoulDook@lemmy.world ⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago

  I’ve noticed that grammar error a lot on the Internet. Bias is discussed frequently as a topic of popular rage-bait posts.

  FYI for those people: “bias” is a noun that is the thing, and “biased” is an adjective that describes a person who has the bias. “The biased person showed their bias” for example.

    It’s definitely one of the more common ones. I see that alot

  If you understand someone well enough to correct them, you didn’t have to.

  source

  • Doug@midwest.social ⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago

    Just because you understand someone well enough to correct them doesn’t mean everyone else will

    Just because you understand them well enough today doesn’t mean you will tomorrow

    We should all be striving to be better than we are, not breeding resentment from contentment

    • hydrospanner@lemmy.world ⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago

      Just because you understand someone well enough to correct them doesn’t mean everyone else will

      Then they should ask for clarification.

      Just because you understand them well enough today doesn’t mean you will tomorrow

      At which point you can ask for clarification.

      We should all be striving to be better than we are, not breeding resentment from contentment

      And part of “better” is having the perspective and desire to avoid pedantry where it’s not needed.

        We’re clearly not going to agree here. Plenty of people would rather be made aware of their mistakes and that’s no less valid than your point of view. Personally I would rather avoid potential misunderstandings than deal with them after the fact. I’m not the only one who feels that way.

      Just because … doesn’t mean …

      I hate this extragrammatical idiom so much.

      But given that colloquial usage trumps all else when it comes to driving the evolution of language, most people could care less.

      source

      • Doug@midwest.social ⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago

        Interesting choice given the way that’s been shifting slowly back to the more accurate form in the past however many years.

        If colloquial usage did trump all, irregardless would’ve been acknowledged as a correct word well before I was born. It may be the driving force but it’s hardly the only, or even constantly deciding, factor

  Autocorrect ducks for us all.

  source
• merc@sh.itjust.works ⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago

  Yeah, what’s the deal with that. Yes, the two sound similar, but saying “I’m bias” is like saying “I’m anger” instead of “I’m angry” or “I’m sadness” instead of “I’m sad”.

  source

  • Doug@midwest.social ⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago

    It’s like the “would of” people. They don’t hear it in speech so they type it how it sounds to them.

    Or it’s autocorrect

• CeruleanRuin@lemmings.world ⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago

  For people over a certain age I always assume they’re using text to speech and don’t worry about going back and correcting it. My wife is somehow always talking to someone else in the room while she dictates to her watch, so I have a lot of fun interpreting her texts.

  only because it makes him look like he learned to read on tumblr

    Tumblr is an offender but let’s not pretend it’s the only one

        Seems like it’s a bit of a sensitive spot for you…
