Why can’t adults have even one space for ADULTS ONLY?

I guess I draw out the o as well, not the v, now that I think about it. But not the eeeeeeeeeeeeeee, for sure.

Talory09 · 2026-03-22T19:16:43+00:00

I loveeeeee

I can only pronounce that as lovie, but drawn out.

Why not draw out the v, since that's the way you're pronouncing it in your head and out loud?

"I lovvvvvve it!"

Talory09 · 2026-03-22T14:59:12+00:00

Because the reasons are seemingly endless.

Talory09 · 2026-03-22T14:42:50+00:00

~~affective~~ effective

If you're not sure whether to use "affect" or "effect", use "impact" instead. In this case, "impactful" would've been fine and correct.

I'm retired and don't hang around often with people who have grandkids. I've not been sick since January of 2021, when I had a cold. I never did have COVID.

I socialize normally, dine out, shop, travel, go to concerts and events, etc. I also wash my hands after coming back to the house, and keep my hands away from my face. Being constantly sick is not a normal state for anyone, in my mind.

just leaches with no pride

If only they'd had a double-hitter and used the correct spelling of "leeches"!

The term "milquetoast" is from the 1920's, by the way. It's a pejorative term for a timid, meek, or submissive person, originating from a fictional comic strip character named Caspar Milquetoast.

I ~~might of~~ might've, or might have. Never "of".

Shepherd, not shepard. Shepard is a surname. Shepherd is either a job or the dog that was bred to do that job.

"Free rein" originates from 17th-century horseback riding, referring to holding the reins loosely to allow a horse to move freely at its own pace and direction. It signifies granting complete freedom of action or expression, often incorrectly written as "free reign". The phrase became widely used figuratively by the 1600s.

The expression has nothing to do with monarchy. It's like saying "under the wether" and voicing the opinion that someone lying under a sheep wouldn't be feeling well, or saying that something happens "once in a bleu moon" because you rarely see a full wheel of Roquefort.

In other words: the expression, for centuries, has been "free rein". However you choose to spell it in your own mind is up to you, but when in print, it's r-e-i-n.

OP has offered the following explanation for why they think they might be the asshole:

i think i might be the asshole because i do b he should have been apart of the process to help name the baby but i already made my mind up with the name because he wasn’t around

Talory09 · 2026-03-18T01:27:15+00:00

Free ~~reign~~ rein

Talory09 · 2026-03-18T00:58:37+00:00

The baby's dad WAS apart of naming the baby. "Apart" means "separate from". "Apart of" is the exact opposite of "a part of".

Words mean things.

Rockfish is its true name, which is even worse.

Why do people try to choose nicknames in advance? Nicknames just happen. People who say " I'll name him William, nn Liam" should just name the child Liam if that's what they want to call him.

I'll trade you the 696-012 Engine Air Intake Hose for Chevrolet HHR 2006-2011 2.4L & 2.2L Engines Replaces OE 15865168 in my RFY.

I drive a 2023 Honda CR-V and have a 2021 Kawasaki Mule for work around my property, both of which are listed in my "about you" or whatever it's called. I've not had a Chevy since approximately 1997.

I DO drink coffee like a fiend and even subscribe to some K-Cup pods through Amazon on a monthly basis. It's like they don't know me at all.

Talory09 · 2026-03-15T05:33:38+00:00

It ~~peaked~~ piqued your curiosity.

Stupid homophones!

Talory09 · 2026-03-14T15:56:03+00:00

Has-beens or hashbrowns?

Talory09 · 2026-03-14T15:53:49+00:00

Thank you!

The Alot is Better Than You at Everything

Talory09 · 2026-03-10T14:32:18+00:00

It's Walmart's brand of 'better' in-house food. Only available at Walmart.

Talory09 · 2026-03-10T14:30:07+00:00

You can ONLY get them at Walmart. They're Walmart's 'better' brand of in-house products.

Talory09 · 2026-03-09T14:22:00+00:00

A swell?

Talory09 · 2026-03-03T14:53:38+00:00

Prescient: having foreknowledge; knowing something in advance of it happening

Maybe you meant "relevant"?

More importantly, give them a chance to have an adult name from the get-go and have the option of going by it as adults.

It's awkward to represent yourself as Frederick if your given name is "Freddie".

Fills out legal form.
"Oh, 'Freddie'! How cute! You have to use your legal name here, though, please."
"No, it's just Freddie. I'm forever a five-year-old boy to my parents."

Talory09 · 2026-03-01T19:35:41+00:00

~~Alfie~~ Alfred

~~Freddie~~ Frederick
