Understood. I'll report you to your local golf course for vandalism.

At least the oil companies love me - the last time I was in a bunker, I struck oil.

Do you ever think about how you can be overwhelmed and underwhelmed but never whelmed?

Spoiler

Yes I know whelmed has a definition but it's so so similar to overwhelmed that I refuse to accept it

I thought when I pressed Spoiler it was going to say something like "you think it had an answer? Idiot."

I am neutral to this post.

Are there any ambiguous words you have strong feelings towards?

The truth is...

Whelmed is our regular state!

Holy s**t!!! What a week it’s been. Can’t wait for the long weekend.

Geez this COVID monster is getting huge - 15,000 dead globally in the last 2 days!!!

We here in Aus compared to, are going ok.

The economy and job situation though. That’s ****ed

Yeah agreed - there's no place I'd rather be right now. But we'll take a bloody long time to get over this!

Quote of the day - the oxygen thieves who keep stockpiling toilet paper should also buy heaps of condoms, to make sure they don't make any more stupid people .

 

[Drunkgoliath]

Whenever I leave the golf course, there's no more food for the birds, because I usually burn all the worms.

Is that not how you're supposed to play?
I've been doing that for years

Coming from Paris, it somehow hits softer

Threw the scraps out for the vultures.

Seriously spent most of yesterday thinking it was Thursday.

And this morning... I just saw larrikin's avatar and felt like cracking a beer.

Our reserves team should have no trouble getting a replacement.

For a city of 2 million people, the equivalent would be 5 deaths.

The scariest part is overloading the ED so you not only potentially have Covid-19 deaths, but also preventable ones occurring.

 

[Agent93]

It's a good thing the city of 2 million people I live in hasn't had 5 deaths in the last 2 days.

The scariest part is overloading the ED so you not only potentially have Covid-19 deaths, but also preventable ones occurring.

It's not just EDs. Whole hospitals are being pushed to limits with forced changes to operations, topologies... you name it. There will be hundreds of hospital staff nationwide that will be mentally burned out in a month or so.

 

[GremioPower]

It may not have been covid-related, but I could bet there were way more than 5 deaths in your city in the past couple of days...

I'm not saying corona is irrelevant. It is important.(I have been locked down, and my city has TWO confirmed CASES.) Still, we need to keep things in perspective.

 

[Golumless]

Are there any ambiguous words you have strong feelings towards?

Nah, tautologies sometimes get me though. Close proximity, and proximity are the exact same thing as an example.

Also any word that is very similar to a word used in environmental science. I.e. * the word sentiment as I had to retrain my brain to not say/write sediment every time I wanted to use that word. I don't even look at rocks that much.

Also also, * the word brewery as for whatever reason, I can't pronounce it properly without having to break down each syllable. If not, it usually sounds like the name of a now defunct former 4th tier English soccer club. I'd like to blame FIFA 04 for that one.

 

[Agent93]

Confirmed. Golumless is a luddite, completely against new innovations.
