Sure why not, and lets kill a couple goats and shit for good measure too while we’re at it.

Peer pressure.

No, I’m dead serious. I believe an exposed pie would survive on the ground long enough for a whole bush to grow around it and then subsequently be eaten by a dog. I am in no way being humorous.

Maybe the pie was there first and the bush grew around it.

And if you out your charizo in there, it’s going to come out looking like landjäger!

Why would you not name the company? If they won’t protect you, you are not obligated to protect them.

I am so powerfully intrigued.

Funny meme. Anyone know what this is actually a picture of?

This is some real lowest common denominator type meme.

“you just waited patiently at a traffic signal behind a soldier driving a Hemi !!!”

“You just merged onto the freeway behind a soldier driving a Hemi !!!”

“You just momentarily shared a roundabout with a soldier driving a hemi !!!”

“You just got served coffee at a drive through after a soldier driving a Hemi !!!”

“If you happen to be a soldier driving a hemi, that means a soldier driving a hemi is driving behind a soldier driving a hemi !!!”

It could be interesting to cut all the movies into even pieces making one movie with the average runtime of all of them and see if it’s cohesive.

I’ve considered when a word is no longer “made up”.

There’s always some enlightened centrist claptrap about “all words being made up”, which I think even they know is pedantic and not really a solution.

Then you have the Websters who intentionally annoint words prematurely, I’m certain for marketings sake. Every year they get some free press about adding surprising words. I don’t really know who buys dictionaries on a regular basis, but someone must, so they must want to appear modern and get some free advertising while they’re at it. In Short, you have early adopters who want to appear hip, and that seems wrong, too.

Finally you have the hard-ass who doesn’t want anything new added. In my experience these people just get off on gatekeeping and pearl clutching. They don’t think that slang is worthy and they want to be part of the ingroup who decides which words are “real”. In these peoples opinion, if they’re being consistent, words like “legit” shouldn’t be a word, it’s just slang for legitimate. So that seems wrong.

I think the only answer is perhaps time. I feel like a word needs to live as long as the average person before becoming “official” (whatever that means). Like, who knows if in 79 years “bussin” will still be a usable word. But then again, useable by whom? If the issue with slang is that it’s too new and therefor only understood by a narrow group of people, can’t the same complaint can be applied to highbrow difficult words that are only understood by the overeducated? Or technical words in niche areas of understanding? Can you really say that more people can define metempsychosis, or kentledge, than can define edgelord, or doggo?

But even my time argument fails. Because what’s the harm in adding words? We aren’t bound by any space limitations or something. We don’t run out of “word slots” and once they’re all used we’re stuck forever.

Long story short, I don’t know what the answer is. But I do know that horsefeatherses isn’t a word.

The bully part comes in when YouTube music is rolled into the cost. I would pay for youtube premium if all I got was a premium YouTube (and therefore the price was substantially lower). But what they’re doing is leveraging the popularity of YouTube to try and force the bolstering of YouTube music subscribers. Furthermore, they are currently increasing the price for premium in several markets. So the already too high cost is temporary at best and nearly guaranteed to go up even further with absolutely no increase in benefits. Paying to remove ads seems fine, but what they are attempting to do goes beyond that simple quid pro quo. They are being coercive and indirect to a degree I find unethical. Thus, bully.
