Even if they do implement such tax, I wonder how many ways there are for rich people to avoid paying those taxes. They tend to be very good at skirting around such things. They even pay people who are professionals in the field of tax-around-skirting.

Some people sadly don’t care about that and just want punishment because it makes them fell good.

Word. Soda should have sugar, not artificial sweeteners, and if you get too much sugar from soda you’re simply just DRINKING TOO MUCH SODA. Stop it and drink more water.

Or is it what media outlets want, for sensationalism and clicks, which in turn makes it all the voters focus on because there is nothing else?

Edit: Eh, writing this I apparently thought they wrote more/other things than they did. Ah well, I’ll keep the comment up as a piece of history from my past.

Oh yeah? Well me and my click says it did leave!

I mean, he comes across as an incredibly pathetic sad loser that has managed to gather some money and fame. His fans probably relate to the former and hope watching his videos and taking after him will lead to the latter. 🤷‍♂️

I’m sure this will solve the conflict. Nothing bad will ever come from this in the future I’m sure. The Palestinians will swiftly put this behind them forever because who ever thinks of what happened in the past?

Thank you.

That’s what I’m saying! It does not say anywhere that it’s spelled extrAverted in the UK. If anything it says the exact opposite.

According to the Oxford English Dictionary, “The original spelling ‘Extravert’ is now rare in general use but is found in technical use in psychology.”

(emphasis mine)

Don’t come here with logical arguments! :(

Maybe I’m tired but this comment reads to me as if you’re disagreeing with me when everything you say supports what I said? My objection/question was how you came to the conclusion it’s a US/UK thing. There’s no support for that in the article.

Correct. But extrOvert makes no sense, etymologically (latin). The dictionaries accept it, but I (jokingly) don’t.

Tldr A British English, O American English

What? How did you get to that conclusion? That’s not what the article says at all? It says Phyllis Blanchard used the (then incorrect) spelling with an O (while also changing the definition of the term to something most people I think would disagree with) in a paper she wrote and nobody knows why. And it spread from there.

I think you’re interpreting “Today, ExtrOvert is the most common spelling of the term in the United States.” to mean it’s spelled with an A elsewhere, but the author even brings up the Oxford Dictionary (UK) that says that the original spelling with an A is rare in general use. I live outside the US and I pretty much exclusively see the O-spelling.

EDIT: Changed from “incorrect” to “then incorrect” to clarify. She wrote her article before extrOvert entered the dictionary, and - according to the author of the article linked earlier in this thread - her article might have been a big contributing factor for it entering the dictionary that was published soon after.

I get so much satisfaction whenever I see extravert spelled correctly, which is very rare these days.

So confident, yet so wrong.

Train station and bus station. Why isn’t it called boat station and plane station?

That was actually rather hilarious.

Both, thrusting your pelvis towards another avatar in VR Chat doesn’t count as sex!

;)

You don’t need currency for it to be prostitution. Prostitution is exchanging sex for goods, services or currency.

Oof.
