Elmo already suffered enough with his mind of a child and getting bullied and gaslit by his “friends”, he doesn’t deserve having his name sullied by having it used to refer to Musk.

You’d be just fine if you remain a decent human being rather than becoming an egotistical and racist pile of garbage.

Also, Musk was born rich and basically bought his fame.

Correction: Everyone is still allowed to make fun of American’s crazy politicians, there’s just more non-American politicians in the pool to also make fun of

Could be an A/B test and you’re lucky to be in the control group.

I’m not saying they’re fancy, just that there are more people on the planet that can’t speak English than people who can.

Also, most people on the planet speak multiple languages. There are even less people on the world that only speak a single language than there are English speakers. So, if anything, speaking just a single language, even if it’s English, is the abnormal thing.

Lastly, it’s not about “feeling successful”, as you put it, but about being able to communicate with more people and being able to enjoy more things.

What is a “normal person”? Most people on the planet don’t communicate in English.

Even if you’re pro-religion, voting blue is the better choice. Only blind mammonites and hate-filled egotists can justify voting republican.

Also, the way Trump’s base is all whipped up, not voting at all is nearly equivalent to voting for him.

(p.s. this orange kunt will never be president again)

I sincerely hope and wish you are correct. But last I heard he was ahead in the polls. 😱

The democrats really should have gone with a new face rather than Biden round 2.

The higher pitch for the entire sentence is another option in my Spanish, but indicates outrage.

The version where you hear it’s supposed to be a question from the word “dijiste” is more of a request for information, like if your mom yelled something and you’re not sure if she said “No me molestes” or “No te sorpreses” or something else that sounds vaguely similar or if she was actually yelling at a fly that was going on her nerves.

The sentence overall becomes more melodic, with the stressed syllables getting a higher pitch and more defined stress.

In spanish questions intonation changes occur only on the last word(s), not the whole sentence. I’m not a linguistic, but I think it’s so you can be sure a sentence is a question from the start.

That might be the case in the dialect you’re familiar with, but “¿Me dijiste que no te moleste?” has a different intonation to “Me dijiste que no te moleste.” in my Spanish (starting from “dijiste”).

As for English, questions normally start either with a question word or a (auxiliary) verb, while affirmations normally start with the subject. See “You told me not to bother you.” vs. “Did you tell me not to bother you?”. Using just intonation is possible (“You told me not to bother you?!??”), but when in writing, it’s usually formatted in a way that highlights it because it usually indicates outrage/disbelief.

Might be app- or instance-dependant. I’m using Liftoff.

For those who want to know, that makes Xitter sound like halfway between Sitter and Shitter.

As an English speaker you can try to make that sound by saying the Y in YEET and paying close attention to how exactly your tongue is positioned and where in your mouth the air is being constricted. Then try to position your tongue as if you want to say “yeet” or “yes” again, but make an S sound at exactly the same constriction point where you made the Y sound before. If you’re successful, it should sound like a hybrid between S and SH to your English ears.

That’s how I make it anyway, actual Mandarin speakers might find issue with my explanation.

Your spoiler tag failed

Just recently I got a job offer where I had clearly stated I’m willing to work a maximum of 80%. When I went there to take a look before committing to it, they mentioned that because of the high amount of orders they have, they need everyone to put in an extra hour of work every day for the foreseeable future and I’d be expected to do the same.

My thoughts: Hey asshole, I even told you I’d prefer 75% and that the maximum of 80% is for health reasons, and you’re here trying to push it to 90% on the sly?

Obviously I rejected the offer. And then they had the gall to report to the unemployment office that I wasn’t willing to work the 80% they advertised as their minimum.

Edit: Good news was that I was able to land an all around better job just two days later.

Yes, but there’s context about why I asked

In this regard, I’m probably part of the old folks. I’m older than the WWW at least. I just figured I’d try asking ChatGPT with context instead of Google because I didn’t want something I suspected to be Nazi terminology in my search history.

I was just surprised by how differently it reacted compared to when I tested it with alt history scenario requests a few months ago.

At least in German, there’s even a term that translates to grill vegetables. Meaning zucchini, eggplant, …

Just in! Man takes too many weightloss pills, ends up inadvertently cooking his testes! Read all about it in Blabbity Fair!

I quoted your comment to ChatGPT 3.5 and asked what you were referring to with “the 14 words”. I’ve never seen it take so long to answer, and when it finally did, it was like watching someone else write in a shared Google doc, including watching words getting replaced. Maybe my question triggered a reply by an actual human?
