Well this is a more complex case which includes combining negation with quotation and punctuation marks. I'll bet those factors explain why it didn't work.

Well I'm not willing to provide any proof of my identity, so you have no reason to take what I say as legitimate. Indeed, I've seen lengthy posts of utter nonsense from others who claimed to work at CA. Usually, even the generally

I was looking for a second opinion, and found the comment by Glenn in that article was a good counterpoint. I won't repeat it here, but another point that comes to mind is that one may use a very small amount of milk-substitute in your

I gratefully accept the information of your post, but I don't think it manages to make the intended point. Notice how many times you used the word "should", which was never a consideration in my post. We could talk about s

So weird -- when did we all decide to start saying "I was laying in bed" instead of "I was lying in bed"? I have noticed this shift over the past few years. Laying has always been past tense "That day I lay in bed f

In pneumonia, areas of the lungs fill with fluid. This prevents the area from filling with air, which therefore prevents the exchange of CO2 and O2 between the blood and air. I will assume that 'absorption' in this sense refers to

Yeah, the Guardian was actually interested in the story because they were mislead by the statements of the CEO of CA and by Christopher Wylie into believing that CA was involved in a campaign for Brexit in 2016. They wanted to delegitimise

Okay, thanks for the clarification. I do understand why the article hasn't touched upon this, since it's just an attempt to diagnose the pattern seen in the overall male subpopulation, which is not seen in the overall female subpo

I think the article takes as a given that men's labour participation is tanking, while women's isn't. For most of the audience, this will be common knowledge. Here is a graph about female participation: https://dat
