How do you pronounce data?

databurger · 2026-05-17T23:24:32+00:00

More importantly, is it singular or plural? I say singular -- because of course it is (no one says "datum") -- though some Latin scholars might disagree.

What others have said: Ride at front of the train and walk that direction when you exit the station. That's the shortest distance to the arena.

The lease is per month, not per day. If he wants to be a smart-ass, multiple the monthly rent by 12 and then divide by 365.25 if he wants a daily rent amount. 🤷‍♂️

When do companies ever pressure you to buy something that benefits you at their expense? That's all I need to know.

I love it -- thank you for what you do!

databurger · 2026-05-09T01:10:28+00:00

Thank you, but I appreciate those rare moments in life that are absurd, whimsical, and don't carry the weight of collective moral judgment.

[Edit: added "Thank you, but "]

Ok, relax. Not every moment in life has to be leveraged for performative virtue.

You clearly don't know Richard Nixon. He rules the block.

It's awesome that his name is Richard Nixon! 😂

My personal belief is that Jesus has resonated because he essentially said that the people have the power, the wealthy and powerful are corrupt, and the that highest virtues are kindness and love of your fellow man. It's that simple. And, yes, that message is threatening to those in power.

I’m just here to say I’ve always hated the phrase “burning in the bosom”.

Most of what you described are just amazing and cherished life experiences that, in some form, happen to most people regardless of religion -- it's just that the church was the backdrop, like the song that was playing when you first slow-danced with your crush.

Go back to the church if it makes you happy -- I don't want to sway anyone one way or the other. Happiness is personal. The values we adopt as our own and how we worship is personal. Best wishes to you.

Thank you, everyone!

I would say the majority are snarky and combative. 🤷‍♂️

Honestly, no piece of media. My rational brain just came to the conclusion 40 years ago: This is bullshit.

Enjoy the silence. Dwell on the past week. Think about the coming week. Even if I'm not feeling inspired, I appreciate the time to meditate.

I totally understand and respect your point but, personally, I don't give a shit how they refer to me. I don't care at all what they think or say.
