For me, it may be that the toilet paper roll needs to have the open end away from the wall. I don’t want to reach under the roll to take a piece! That’s ludicrous!
That or my recent addiction to correcting people when they use “less” when they should use “fewer”
Get bent. Impacted is absolutely acceptable usage to describe a direct or follow on affect from an action or initiative. It’s useful precisely because it’s an intensifier that conveys not just that there is a detectable change in an indicator, but there is a major change that directly attributable to the manipulated variable.
Now, Bob, let’s keep it civil here
I thought that was a civil statement. I may be miscalibrated but I thought it was among the mildest of four letter words. I’d be happy to extend my vocabulary in the gentle art of dismissal.
I agree but you can be less offensive saying it
You’re right. Funny how language can evolve, like if a phrase from an obscure German sociologist takes on a colloquial meaning not quite in line with its academic definition in the original treatise. 🤣
This is probably the best thread in a while for all of Lemmings to display our true selves to each other. I love it.
