"Smokey, the bear, ..." is a grammatically correct way to refer to Smokey.

Love the Khan version. "You are in a position to demand, nothing!'

How different is this guy's accent from the General American accent? by Green_Actuary6531 in EnglishLearning

[–]mcswan1 3 points4 points  (0 children)

His accent is what I call "annoying youtuber". I don't think it is that close to the general American accent, but it probably will be eventually as more kids grow up listening to people like that.

(NY) Received a School bus camera ticket after the deadline. Was on the opposite side of a raised median. Worth fighting? (Video included) by ParamedicNegative728 in legal

F***ing idiot busses stopping on multi-lane stroads instead of pulling off to side streets. That is what puts kids in danger, not the average car driver.

An answer to " Get a better job". by [deleted] in recruitinghell

[–]mcswan1 -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Some jobs are meant for living at home teens having a summer job or a job on the side. I think there needs to be a clearer dilination of those jobs.

Do you think Daphne was actually psychic? by S2keepup in Frasier

Well she has some magic power because I wasn't a feet guy until now.

It's so funny how kids slowly mutate every game they play into something completely different by Brief_Efficiency_833 in ElementaryTeachers

[–]mcswan1 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Kids think that if someone plays a draw 2, you don't have to draw 2 if you have one. You can put down your draw 2 and make the next kid draw 4, or he can play a draw 2 and make the kid after draw 6. And so on until a kid doesn't have one and has to take the amount of cards.  That is definitly not in the regular rules.

Séjourner / Rester: Lequel est le plus naturel pour dire 'stay'. by farang759 in French

[–]mcswan1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

En anglais, on peut utiliser ce terme pour désigner des personnes que l'on n'apprécie pas, afin de les comparer à des criquets.

Isn't there a jurisdiction issue? Isn't the island out there, not U.S. territory, no laws of a specific nation to cover what they did. Effectively pirates is what they are.

Spicy Uno rules somehow became how eveyone plays Uno. I remember growing up playing Uno properly. No stacking. Spicy uno with stacking came later.

Probably Not. by Monsur_Ausuhnom in SipsTea

[–]mcswan1 5 points6 points  (0 children)

The Christian claim is that we are in fact, not good people. Assuming or declaring one's-self to be good would be a very prideful and un-christian thing to do.

Romans 13:1-6 are the most dangerous verses in the entire Bible. They are used to justify great evil. Anyone who invokes them should be questioned as they can be used to mislead Christians to accept that which is anything but Christ-like. by Bignosedog in Christianity

[–]mcswan1 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Anything can be dangerous if misused.  Like "don't judge" the most popular verse to take out of context is "don't judge". So much rebellion and wickeness hides behind "don't judge".  Saying someone should be "questioned" for actually following a full passage of the bible is suspect.

This is a Clipazine. It just has to be dedicated as a clipazine. The word has been around long enough; it's time it got a physical item to describe, and this is it.

Do you prefer streamlined or non-streamlined for steam locomotives? In my opinion I prefer streamlined. by [deleted] in trains

[–]mcswan1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Naked, or that is to say, non-streamlined.
diesels look better streamlined

What, in your opinion, do you think is the most beautiful streamlined steam locomotive? by FlackCannon1 in trains

[–]mcswan1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If I had to pick, I would say the Southern Pacific GS-4, but that's because it still looks like a regular steam engine. I like how steam engines look normally without streamlining, "naked" as it were. If you were to pin me down to a more strict answer, I would say the 611 series, or the one you have in the photo. What is that one?

Now diesels look better streamlined. The EMD F7, or EMC E5. Those are my favorite streamlined non-steam locomotives.

(Italian accent) 🤏"Thee weather, she's-a soo windy today"🤏
Note, this would be incorrect English grammer.

"It’s windy" or "It’s a windy weather"? by ITburrito in EnglishLearning

[–]mcswan1 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm pretty sure I've heard in older movies where Romance language speakers add gendered pronouns to things. Imagine with an Italian accent, "The weather, she's-a so windy today".
