  It was friends and YouTube content creators from the UK that made me realize that dropping the L isn’t done everywhere else. I grew up thinking that it was just one of those English words that break all the pronunciation rules.

  I’m on the west coast, Northern California. Huh.

  I already do this with the word “solder” which confuses my fellow Americans greatly. They seem to think I’m lying that the L is sounded out in other English speaking countries.

  I just think the American pronunciation (SAW-dur) sounds wrong.

  Paper and Scissors were unable to attend.

  The fee you add for DoorDash etc should not be considered a tip. Tips are given after service is rendered, and are based on the quality of service. These fees are more like a bounty. “I’ll pay $10 to the person that brings me a hamburger, dead or alive.”

  I am so happy that I’m not the only one that thought Apple Jacks were vastly more profitable than I had expected.

  Coffee isn’t even on your list.

  Go to your room and think long and hard about what you’ve done.

  You assert that “the left loves the massive pollution aspect of it” and expect someone to take you seriously? I hope you are trolling, because this statement isn’t very well thought out. My understanding of the majority leftist energy position is that renewables like solar are preferable to burning hydrocarbons because of a lower lifetime environmental footprint. Do you have a different understanding of how leftists think?

  She had pink hair when they hired her. No one at the company bothered to engage with even a Zoom call to screen her appearance, so they are gonna do what now, exactly?

  She had pink hair when they hired her. If the organization has rules about things like this then the hiring manager is the one at fault.
