Hah! Three words and you still spelled one wrong.

No spoilers exist here and it's a Christmas themed post - surely Santa was the original spoiler!?

So... Santa still exists here?

Unless you hate Christmas, then it's a sudden bucket of suck, then a release back into those lovely routines and coping mechanisms.

Hmm. I might be a little broken though. Don't be like me, enjoy your Christmasses!

Edit: Actually, it's not so sudden, it's between a 3 and 12 month to Christmas each year, depending on your age/ access to advertising.

Also... I'm all for the language evolving and words changing their meaning over time, as they've always done, but that one is crazy. Hopefully common use will, in time, fix that and get that new definition changed... but ehh, I don't hold much hope.

Bring on the AI overlords? Reading the Polity (Sci Fi) series at the moment, and it really doesn't seem like a bad option!

I'm just going to assume they meant that sarcastically.

The title correcting it to further is what caught my attention, but no, I'm not seeing people taking huge issue with it either.

And there's nothing wrong with being correct, I like to be eloquent too.

I was just saying farther is just as correct as further, and found it interesting is all. They may have been misused a hundred years ago, but not for a long long time, they have identical meanings nowadays!

Farther is the correct word, and has been confused with further for so long (over a hundred years), that they both mean exactly the same thing nowadays, so not sure why people are taking issues with it.

Unless I'm missing something?

It might take a while to get all the syllables, and I fully expect them to get 'mama' first, but I'm gonna aim for 'destroyer of worlds'.

That too. Stop the unsolicited fisting!

Mosquitoes would probably beat them, but they've had a hefty head start. The church are aware of this, of course, which is why they double down on the paedophilia to catch up.

Spock on a cock! Should have marked that nsfw really...
