Graffitied is a word. Why replace the E with an apostrophe when it's the same amount of characters?

What if you pulled a fire alarm because there was a fire?

Why is pulling the fire alarm worse than getting expelled

If you start a fire and pull the fire alarm, you have saved dozens of people in the act of pulling the alarm and done only property damage in the act of starting the fire. It’s a major karma exploit.

Tenebrais posted:Why is pulling the fire alarm worse than getting expelled Getting expelled and getting suspended are valued the same, which... doesn't quite jive with the opinions of any educator I've ever met. Also, 'drag raced' feels wrong. Is it correct but ugly, or is the correct past-tense term 'dragged race'?

Graffiti is plural (graffito being singular) so you can't graffiti something by definition (unless you're painting with both hands.)

Goddamnit, it's only an adjective. No ten dollars for me.

In Italian "graffiti" is plural and "graffito" is singular, but in English it's a loan word and we gently caress all those up so we use "graffiti" as both the singular and plural nouns, as well as a verb. edit it's not really a singular or plural noun, I don't know what the term for it is but it's the sort of thing where it's not granular, just "some graffiti" like "some water" or "some stank" Baron von Eevl has a new favorite as of 16:17 on Jun 4, 2021 |

Every time I read the word "Graffiti", I hear it pronounced like Ernie Hudson does in the Crow.

What the gently caress? My brain refuses to accept this as anything other than a bad troll.

I choose to believe Xeni Jardin's cancer battle made her stop giving a gently caress and now has no filter whatsoever, because I have no idea what else could account for the poo poo she says

Theres a comedian in the UK who used to be a doctor (I forget which one*) who tells a story about this. The old fashioned type of lightbulb will go in your mouth, but not easily come out. So he has a patient in the morning whos put a lightbulb in his mouth and cant get it out. They gently caress around with various methods (pulling it, lubing it up and pulling it) and eventually work out how to get it out. Send the guy home in a cab. A few hours later they get a second patient in with a lightbulb stuck in his mouth. They get it out (having perfected a method that morning) and then say to the guy "okay, whats going on? I've never had to remove a lightbulb from a mouth before, now two in one day?" Transpires the second guy is the taxi driver who drove the first guy home from the hospital. They'd been chatting in the cab and the passenger had told him why he'd been at the hospital and the driver had thought "That sounds fake. No way you cant just pull it back out, if it goes in it must come back out" and when his shift had ended he'd gone home and tried it for himself. *I think it was Adam Kay who is more of an author/screenwriter than comedian, but I could be wrong. There are a fair few ex medics who are now comedians. It was on 8 out of 10 cats does countdown whoever it was.

I think the most famous comedian that used to be a doctor is Harry Hill. It seems to be a thing though.

Off the top of my head Paul Sinha and Ken Jeong (although hes american rather than british) as well as the aforementioned Harry Hill, but I know theres more. And Jo Brand was a psychiatric nurse. I watch a lot of stand up/panel shows, and it kind of feels like the only job more common as a path into stand up is Teacher.
