Why do you think you can dictate to anyone what to wear?

I mean I guess.

But I always liked the idea of reclaiming stuff from the assholes.
So if people think this template is nice to make memes with, I always enjoyed taking it away from Crowder without giving him the power to stop anyone from using it.
In my eyes he doesn't own this meme, but I can see your point.

Steven Crowder is a well known asshole with an internet presence that he uses to sow misogyny and other forms of hate.

I don't want to see his face in memes.

That asshole shouldn't have a meme, cmm.

Just use Calvin.

Little Bobby Tables is my favorite XKCD strip of all time, and I don't even actively work with databases.

I am willing to bet that you are simply more used to the imperial system.

I am not convinced that it has any objective advantage over the metric system.

My foot is about 50% larger than my SO's, but I can perfectly invision 30cm whenever I want or need to.

I mean he defrauded rich people.

Off course he gets the book.

Do you actually wonder?

Those caps get lost way less and since the bottles themselves usually get recycled now the caps also stay in the cycle.

And it took me like 5 bottles to get used to it.
Even a slow learner should get it sooner or later.

That might be true in the US, but that is certainly untrue in other parts of the world, where college/university is way cheaper/free and the pay difference a degree makes can be huge.

I live in Germany and I think it almost always pays off to ge to university, at least if you are interested in anything even close to MINT.
And even in non MINT areas a higher degree opens many doors that otherwise are really hard to get into.

I respect your opinion, but I am completely the other way.

A meal wants to be a journey through your flavors.
Each getting a small time to shine, before coming together in the end for that one last perfect bite.

I mean I get your point and for all intents and purposes I don't even necessarily disagree.

I just wanted to add this little factoid, since I think using "octopi" instead of the at least equally as correct "octopuses" shows that one tries to follow the etymology of the word.
And if you try to do that, the etymologically correct plural is "octopodes".

Then again I hesitated even answering you, since I am by no means one of those weirdos that has a problem with language changing.

For all I care we can talk about octopussies and octopiarians or whatever, but as someone that had to learn latin as a child, the use of octopi just kind of itches my brain.

But it is all good, I get what you are saying and my first post was never meant as a negative critique of OP and more as a fun fact.
