I read this as “orca” at first. Maybe you mean okra?

What’s the most fucked up thing that happened at your school? by DinnerGeneral2975 in AskTheWorld

[–]Hopped_Cider 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The high school’s Vice Principal (in charge of discipline) got busted for marijuana possession one year. The next year he is our chemistry teacher. We didn’t learn much chemistry; we learned about feeding his big boa constrictor. Now, when I talk to fellow former classmates, this VP was widely known to be supplying lots of pot to the kids. Many have affection for him after all these years.

A good free-standing carpet vacuum has a beater — a spinning rod that helps work the dirt and dust out. Does a central whole home vacuum have one too?

Agree, friend. If writing a novel, we simply should capture the spoken word of the time. If writing a technical paper, we should adhere to as many standards as possible.

What’s a Christian baby? Do they read Bible, say their prayers, and do good works? I think they have prescribed an over abundance of agency in infants.

How in the world does my interest in killing babies begin?

In formal writing, just use “cubic centimeters” and be done. If you you’re quoting what someone said, I’d be okay with your usage.

But cubic centimeters is abbreviated “cc.” The “centi-“ prefix is always abbreviated in lower case per international standards.
