As an American, it's annoying as hell for me too. Entrenched leftists and Trumpers are the worst.

Ethics is right and wrong. Think stealing and lying.

Morals are anything to do with life. Taking or creating life is a moral issue. Think kill, murder, rape.

An issue is typically one or the other. eg It's morally ok to kill someone in self defense. You wouldn't say it's ethical to kill someone in self defense.

Quack

Ha. I forgot about that episode of the view.

Well, at least abracadabra is Hebrew... In English it's "i create that which I speak".

We have child safety outlets that are required in remodels and new construction. The regulation is over a decade old. If people replaced their old outlets, the vast majority of those injuries would not be present. The outlets are about $1 each.

We also have arc fault and gfi circuits required, which old houses don't have. Those are replacement too. But people are cheap, lazy, or lack the skill to do these minor upgrades themselves.

Yes

Diaper didn't get wet all day.

My friend's name is Will Smith. I call him white will Smith. He said no one ever called him that. He thinks it's kind of funny.

Is he lying to me?

If they used to, find the ppd or one from the series models.

5 Guys are as good as fat food gets.

You ate probably 300 calories of butter flavored corn oil. Culver's is gross.

No thanks. I don't like my burgers drenched in butter flavored corn oil.

It's clear to me that many people have never had a burger made from high quality ground beef with 20% fat and something other than Velveeta for cheese.

They're buying control.

I'm sorry but you're wrong here. Kids need to learn that everyone is different and everyone is not treated the same. The oft liar is never trusted. The fat kid is probably the one that stole the candy. The nerdy kid probably did most of the group work. If you get good grades, the teacher gives you more slack in some areas.

And your example sucks. Putting your head down and "listening" is not the same thing as sitting up and paying attention to a lecture but not taking notes.

Don't get me wrong. I see where you're coming from and agree generally, but on academics, there's too many different ways to learn. Whatever someone figures out that works best for them should be left to that if their marks are good every evaluation.

You're literally taking yachts away from someone's children! Why can't you think of the board's children?!

Clearly, they could charge more if they're selling more than ever. Also, you know it's not free to make a digital copy, right?! It's VERY expensive.

There's more office administration than teachers/professors.

The word admin is short for administration, not employee or staff or whatever you're thinking of. Office admins are paper pushers, auditors, red tape appliers, etc.

Ha! I've been accused of making up the names of stuff in Louisiana too. Natchitoches and Atchafalaya are always at the top.
