But a citywide blackout isn’t that uncommon.
- pacifika 10mo agoI think that statement is regional. I’ve never seen one.
- Tade0 10mo agoIt isn't? To me that's the main problem here, as this should be an exceptionally rare occurrence.
- lelanthran 10mo ago> But a citywide blackout isn’t that uncommon. I think too many people talk past each other when they use the word common, especially when talking about car trips. A blackout (doesn't have to be citywide) may not be periodic but it's certainly frequent with a frequency above 1 per year. Many people say "common" meaning "frequent", and many people say "common" meaning "periodic".
- yen223 10mo agoEven among people who mean "common" as in "frequent", they aren't necessarily talking about the same frequency. That's why online communication is tricky!
