As you get older this pedantry gets really tiring.
- brongondwana 1y agoThe good news is, you have less time to be annoyed by it
- IncreasePosts 1y agoPersonally, my belief in my own immortality only increases the older I get. Yes, Socrates died, but he clearly wasn't smart if he died. Me, on the other hand? I'm batting a thousand.
- yard2010 1y agoWould it kill you? Well, ultimately yes..
- lgas 1y agoNot necessarily. Could get hit by a car later the same day.
- dooglius 1y agoThere is a deeper point here, not just pedantry. The point is that harm is a spectrum not a binary and one cannot meaningfully answer a question that assumes a binary.
- lwhi 1y agoYes, there is a such a thing as a bad question after all.
- kmbfjr 1y ago(Tired quip “you must be new here”) Yes, it is tiring. In this case, not really because it is at least for me, humorous in a Doc Martin sort of way. But elsewhere and on places like Reddit where the pedantry is often at best unjustified and at worst, wrong, it has made me spend less time on the sites.
