@gol_mia In Paradise Lost, Milton interpets it to mean that the snake was still snake-shaped before the Fall, but held itself upright, which is an interpretation that I enjoy.
I think Americans are the only people who expect (& demand) not to face any consequences or backlash after consistently acting extremely terrible for over a decade now
Sorry but actions have consequences. Elections have consequences. It's not the our job to endlessly forgive you
@LexiTalksComix@FkMySmPnsLife See, I could see that if he was from New England or something, but he lives in California. Not sure he would be down with the California Republican party.
@Portsgun Mildly annoys me that Domino is "Neena" now. I miss when she was Beatrice.
I also miss Mageto being familiarly called Magnus, which is like a full two names ago at this point.
@ApexAlbon@rubycrossing666@laurenjesholmes Also, this really has nothing to do with anything, but vasectomies are most definitely not painless, and it would bother me if I let you get away with saying that.
@ApexAlbon@rubycrossing666@laurenjesholmes No one is saying you or anyone else has to take birth control. But people have the freedom to choose to do so, and if they do, they do not need to justify to anyone why they are doing so.
@DrugGovoruna@LanguageCrawler@JohnHMcWhorter I don't think that really counts, because it had already evolved into Sinterklaas in Dutch before it was borrowed into English. "Santa" maintains the same bracketing.
@rubycrossing666@laurenjesholmes The appropriate response to "you're doing all that so a man can cum in you?" is "Yeah, so what?"
That is all the rebuttal their point deserves.
@rubycrossing666@laurenjesholmes I mean, that's great and all, but you don't actually need to provide a "respectable" justification.
These people are the weird ones, and meeting them where they are just gives them credence.
@lethargyclad@EvilKeaton Membership in "fraternal organization" like the Masons or the Lions or the Shriners used to be way more common back in the day, even among working class men. It's a trope that pops up a lot in older media but is no longer particularly relatable to modern audiences.
@dumpsterjpeg Well, in that particular case their WAS a clear line of succession, it's just that the heir was an infant so things didn't go according to plan.
You notice how the 180ยฐ rule is broken and hands break continuity but the boob jiggle is so consistent you don't notice any of those things on the first dozen watches? That's cinema.
