That's a shame. They say THE LORD helps those who help themselves, so you're missing out on enormous benefits. Unless it's not true.

And stick to boring and pointless things like the OP intended. Your remark was kind of interesting. I was itching to ask you to expand on it, but I didn't want to sound like a shrink.

That idea that you can't help yourself. I mean is it a profound self-knowledge statement or did the handle just come off your fridge?

I think I'll buy some chicken nuggets so I'll have something to dunk in the leftover sauce I got with the Chinese food I ordered on Thursday. Or chicken fingers, which are like nuggets but longer.

You mean she's got you believing she doesn't know how they work?

OK as long as it's mutual. Otherwise it would be time for me to cut you a switch, as they say in rural Arkansas.

Wind is us nouning a verb because wind isn't a thing. It's an action: air blowing. The wind is blowing is a redundant statement.

Or you can be a person that can hold two opposing things as true like "the wind is not blowing" and live your life like that's a perfectly logical idea to hold. The blowing air isn't blowing. In logic land, this is called illogical.

Let me explain

The blowing air is not blowing -> The blowing air is not blowing -> The air is not ... THE AIR IS NOT!!

SEE‽ Two opposing things can't be true at the same time. They're out there passing misunderstandings or illusions as real. DON'T SURRENDER.

Yes, but they say we should say "these data" because data is plural, but I don't like it and I say "this data." They used to tell us to say "an historic occasion" instead of "a historic occasion," but I didn't comply and they seem to have dropped it now. I know I'm wrong, but I love myself, warts and all.
