Ace-Garageguy Posted August 10, 2022 Posted August 10, 2022 (edited) "Zone of Genius" is a catch-phrase that means nothing more than "what you're particularly good at", and in most cases "genius" has nothing to do with it. Edited August 10, 2022 by Ace-Garageguy TYPO
misterNNL Posted August 10, 2022 Posted August 10, 2022 Indeed is a 14th century word meaning in fact or in truth.
Ace-Garageguy Posted August 10, 2022 Posted August 10, 2022 (edited) "Truth" once had a pretty absolute meaning, like 2+2=4, but these days it's apparently malleable by your life-experience, socio-economic status, or any number of equally irrelevant things that give an individual a unique "perspective"; in other words, humbug.

1972coronet Posted August 10, 2022 Posted August 10, 2022 "Engine" and "Motor" are oft interchangeable in colloquial conversations and references, however the misnomer.
Ace-Garageguy Posted August 10, 2022 Posted August 10, 2022 "Misnomer Night's Dream" is not a play by Will S., but a misnomer itself.
1972coronet Posted August 11, 2022 Posted August 11, 2022 "Itself" is a somehow "permitted" contraction in the English language; whereas I employ "its self" when composing an email, etc., to one whose first language is not English
Ace-Garageguy Posted August 11, 2022 Posted August 11, 2022 (edited) English is full of all kinds of inconsistencies, but what drives me nuts is native English speakers who write "there" for everything that sounds like it, i.e. they're and their. Edited August 11, 2022 by Ace-Garageguy 1
BeakDoc Posted August 11, 2022 Posted August 11, 2022 (edited) Their confusion over there, their and they’re isn’t nearly as infuriating as when I see “should of” instead of “should’ve.” Edited August 11, 2022 by BeakDoc
Ace-Garageguy Posted August 11, 2022 Posted August 11, 2022 (edited) "Should've" ('cept it came out "shuda") "bin 'ere yestidye, myte" said the Australian fella when I asked him if he still had the advertised boxing kangaroo. Edited August 11, 2022 by Ace-Garageguy

Ace-Garageguy Posted August 11, 2022 Posted August 11, 2022 "Scotland the Brave" is one of my favorite pieces of music, specially when played on bagpipes.
BeakDoc Posted August 11, 2022 Posted August 11, 2022 Bagpipes, played well, weave a beautifully haunting melody.
Little Timmy Posted August 11, 2022 Posted August 11, 2022 Melody was the name of the girl I sat next to in high school .
ChrisBcritter Posted August 11, 2022 Posted August 11, 2022 Word association can be fun, like when Chevy Chase said "Dog" and Richard Pryor said "Tree".
