Bug Hunter CatThings change from generation to generation. Not much, but they do. Even when some things improve, most things change for the worse. For example, in the sixties, people used to say "Sex, Drugs, Rock and Roll" And now it's "Sex, Drugs, and Reggaeton." Everything just got worse. 😅😅😅<a href="https://infosec.exchange/tags/sayings" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#sayings</a> <a href="https://infosec.exchange/tags/hippies" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#hippies</a> <a href="https://infosec.exchange/tags/rockandroll" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#rockandroll</a> <a href="https://infosec.exchange/tags/reggaeton" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#reggaeton</a> <a href="https://infosec.exchange/tags/oldtimes" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#oldtimes</a> <a href="https://infosec.exchange/tags/humor" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#humor</a>

NoodlemazOpening an article and finding 'Low and behold' in the first paraC'mon, writers. Look up idioms and other sayings. It's 'Lo and behold', like 'Lo!' the old exclamation for 'look at this/that' - granted, people don't really use it anymore outside this context. But 'Low' just makes zero sense here. Think about what the words and the context of the saying are when you're using them. <a href="https://med-mastodon.com/tags/editing" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#editing</a> <a href="https://med-mastodon.com/tags/writing" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#writing</a> <a href="https://med-mastodon.com/tags/pedantry" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#pedantry</a> <a href="https://med-mastodon.com/tags/sayings" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#sayings</a> <a href="https://en.m.wiktionary.org/wiki/lo_and_behold" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no" target="_blank">https://en.m.wiktionary.org/wiki/lo_and_behold</a>

Kat O’BrienIt is wild to me how many people have so few manners that they just watch videos with sound, have phone conversations and listen to audios - with no headphones - while on transport like the Metro or a train. As my dad would say, were you raised in a barn?!? 😂😂 He was raised on a farm, so I think this is country-style insult.

PoppyPorterSunday morning bike ride cancelled due to pouring rain. My friends and I have decided we are all made of sugar. Apparently “you’re not made of sugar” is a Dutch way of saying you’re being feeble about the weather, and you won’t dissolve in the rain. Is that true? Anyone from the Netherlands here confirm that?
