Tea contains oaxalates which are a main component of kidney stones. However, most studies indicate that you would have to drink a ridiculous amount of iced tea to cause stones to form. I think he probably just developed them through usual means, did a little internet research and convinced himself it's the tea.

And then continued drinking the tea that he thought was causing the kidney stones.

I love screaming in public bathrooms, and my acting teacher told me make the role your truth. I'm just being authentic.

I'm starting to think it's part of a growing Lemmy dialect

I've been using it pretty consistently for several years now. I think something about Lemmy attracts the type of people that use interrobangs, rather than Lemmy creating a culture of interrobang use.

I've been trying to get the semicolon to take off; haven't had much luck though.

When I was a teenager I used it a lot; irritated the hell outta people for some reason lol

I had an eloquent friend who used them in college. The advice he got from TAs (many were from overseas) was to not use them.

[–] techt 2 points 3 months ago (1 children)

I got that advice as well -- the explanation given to me was that it's almost always used incorrectly, so just be safe and don't. However, I like the way it makes writing more closely resemble natural speech; we usually talk in conjoined clauses rather than complete sentences.

[–] someguy3 2 points 3 months ago

Yes the TAs were wrong.
