  • Wouldn't be first day, but eventually I'd starve.

    I'd no longer have employment, bank accounts, investments, assets in my name, etc. No proof of ID or citizenship either.

    Maybe I could end up in jail, then I'd at least have a place to sleep and some food.

  • Ok, I'm confused, is the blank actually used in the middle of large column labels? Like is "A A" a number? how about "A ", " A ", or even " "? (All are three characters) If not then it seems like the base is 26, so I'm not seeing where the 27 multiplier is coming from, except that it's also a case where there's no 0 (like music?) and that might throw things off

    Edit: Ok, the comment by Morti explains everything. It's not the blank, it's the A ≠ AA so there are more numbers before a digit is added thing.

  • Regarding double negatives, I get what you are saying, but they absolutely can be interpreted as a positive - this is easily proven by simply reversing one of them, and they can be reversed because they are after all negatives.

    But if the speaker's meaning is clear then of course it's rude and incorrect to misinterpret them.
    I feel like there's a gray area though where some constructions may be genuinely ambiguous which way the speaker meant (since a double negative as negative by definition means the opposite of what the words would mean otherwise)
