Your employers want you to be more like Spongebob. He doesn't care how his boss treats him so long as he gets to make krabby patties. Don't be like Spongebob.

"House MD is unrealistic" you're right here's my script for a realistic medical show

Patient: I threw up 4 gallons of blood

House: sounds like you need to lose weight

Getting more open-minded as the kind of autistic who's frequently described as pedantic from a young age isn't about becoming less pedantic actually the secret is you become pedantic about different things. Outpedantic the traditional pedants. Like. Kid who obnoxiously corrected grammar to adult who becomes incensed at the slightest hint of prescriptivist attitudes pipeline.

if i was one of the guys who worked at Los Pollos Harmanos i would have been so fucking pissed when Gus died. like look at that scene in Better Call Saul he was such a great manager. imagine the first good fast food manager you had got blown up. i woudnt even care he did all the drug stuff he gave paid holiday. they make a big deal out of his crimes but they never talk about his virtues. being the world’s only decent retail manager.

i love it actually when nonnative speakers make mistakes that reveal how their native languages work.

lots of koreans online say they "eat" drinks which would assume they only have one word which covers the concept of consumption.

arabic immigrants in sweden (my mother included) have a hard time differentiating between "i think/i believe/my opinion is" which suggests that in arabic these different modalities of speaker agency is treated as one or at least interchangeable.

swedish speakers in english will use should/shall/have to/must with much higher nuance precision than native english speakers, to the point where they sound well awkward, because the distinction between these commands in swedish is much clearer than in english. i make mistakes between is/am/are and has/have constantly because swedish only has one pronoun covering all grammatical persons.

i've heard speakers of languages without gendered pronouns (finnish, the chinese dialects, and a tonne more) make he/she mistakes because it's hard(!!) to learn two or more gendered pronouns and when to use them correctly.

how neat is that?! it add a charm to international english usage in particular and make our appreciation of both our native languages and our learnt ones stronger...!!

"save me, substance abuse!" i cry. before you can moralize to me about the dangers of addiction, a noble and powerful steed gallops into the room - my horse whom i have named "substance abuse". you learn an important lesson about making assumptions. i snort a line off its back
