Got Anything Random To Say

^ If it's only $5 why can't he buy it himself?
And if you're going to do that for one person are you going to do the same for everyone else that asks?

When it is hot outside, would someone seriously consider walking in such extreme heat? Normally the answer is not but I did just to appease someone whom thought I was looking too pale, yeah right.

I still get confused with that, who and which.

Everyone that asks or everyone who asks.
I think this is cultural because people from the UK and Oz tend to say 'that' not 'who'.

And when do you use whom as opposed to who.

No one here ever says whom unless you're writing 'to whom it may concern'.

Call me eccentric and one who tends to not follow the rules Raleigh

Who is replaced by whom when it follows a preposition.

Today I was told that April (the month I was born in) was Autism Awareness Month, and that blue (my favourite colour) was its color. Ironic.

Thats a good point, I try and be a good person thats why I ask. I told him I would get it on sale so I don't know. I am just going to avoid the issue right now and think about it later because I don't want to think about rather I should do a nice deed. Primarily because I realize what horrible person I am and that line of thinking is depressing so... instead of changing the fact I am a horrible person, I am going to go play Alice I think.

sort of. in practice i guess that's how people use it, because it's a dying word. but if you want to be "grammatically correct" about it, it can be tricky depending on word order. the rule of thumb that actually works in any case is "if you replaced the word who by a third-person pronoun, or if you directly answered the question by rephrasing it as a statement, then would the pronoun be he/she or would it be him/her?". he = who, him = whom. who does it? he does it. whom is it done to? it is done to him

the thing about that instead of who, i think i read somewhere that there are purists who consider it wrong to say "someone that does something" and it should always be "someone who", but afaik that's a minority among the "experts" on the subject, so it's a matter of regional variation and personal choice/style

What model is your Thinkpad? I'd like to get a faster one eventually.

I almost gave up on this site I joined today, out of complete frustration trying to figure out how to use it. I wouldn't have been able to just forget it and would've driven myself nuts. I actually posted with this for the first time. And I'm 56 not 55. I am bouncing off the walls with frustration...And what is a UCP? and what is an emu egg? aagh...and where do these neurodiverse scores come from? Where are instructions for this site?

Enjoy, recording seems to have caused my latency problem to reappear so when I was taking about that, the occasional pause in this video was what I was referring to, it doesn't normally do that now. This is running on Windows 10 on top of Arch Linux, both audio and video is coming from my graphics card.

I liked that as it made me think of a highly artistic cartoon of sorts, never less great gameplay

Dude, I just noticed your Lode Runner videos. I haven't played that game in ages. It used to be one of my favorites on the Apple IIE my dad's friend gave me.

good night everyone-

lol yeah I forgot about them too, I was going to do all 30 or so levels in the rerelease which is what I was playing but I got lazy after the first one and only uploaded level 6 afterwards because my dad was stuck. He loves Lode Runner and thats actually who I brought the game for. I am not really big into youtube so its mostly just randomness from my life. I would love to be a lets player but I don't have the voice or a sense of calm for it.
