I don’t recall saying every use of a swear is a filler word.
I mod a worryingly growing list of communities. Ask away if you have any questions or issues with any of the communities.
I also run the hobby and nerd interest website scratch-that.org.
I don’t recall saying every use of a swear is a filler word.
I have made a conscious effort to reduce swearing, which has brought my swearing down to near zero, both online and in real life conversation.
I have found that it streamlines the ability to make a point. A lot of swearing is simply thrown in out of habit, and if you remove it, all you do is make your point more clear without losing anything of substance.
I think for many people swearing is a “filler word” in the same way that “umm” can be. I have also worked hard to reduce my other filler word use. My goal with both of these is better articulation.
The next effect is that swearing is normally viewed as an extreme use of language for an extreme situation, and when you don’t constantly swear the times that you do actually conveys how notable the situation is.
A well written resume, a firm handshake, and a willingness to knock on doors is the key to success.
The domain was always for me to archive the things I enjoyed.
Except for the absolute synchronized event where the person in front of you is done, and their weight is exactly what you planned on doing.
But America bad.
True neutral is carrying everything in your hands and avoiding the issue entirely.
Chaotic neutral is using a hand basket and putting it into an abandoned cart when you’re done.
Basically every episode of Columbo. The mystery isn’t the crime, but how he’s going to solve it.
/b/ is just nasty now. Even the YLYL threads are just awful stuff scooped from the bottom of /pol/.
There are few sometimes decent boards, especially if you can find decent reoccurring general threads with regulars in them.
/tv/ should just be renamed Prometheus though. It’s incredible how much that one movie has broken that place.
I like games that give you a little slap upside the head for being stupid. All things considered, losing the paltry amount of early game currency in Metro is getting off pretty light compared to some games.
It’s a suspiciously low price, and the interaction is just a little off. It’s clearly fishy.
It also happens so early that the mugging doesn’t take away much even if you fall for it.
Okay I hear you, but have we tried speeding up the conveyor belt?
Yes, that’s a real pickle.
Unexpected, yet entirely on brand to do the opposite of what he says.
Unexpected to see updates on this game.
His plan is completely bananas.
It’s really nice to have videos do it automatically though. I don’t even think about it anymore.
Then it isn’t a filler. I never said I don’t swear, but have greatly reduced it. One effect of reduced swearing is that when swears are used, they have more punch.
I’m not sure why you’re so invested in debating that people who habitually swear won’t insert swears into unrelated thoughts, but the only support I offer is to listen to someone who habitually swears speak. I don’t want to sound like that, so I make the effort not to.
My choice on how I speak and type doesn’t impose anything on you.
