My dad drove buses for many years and he liked being thanked. I always say 'thank you!' or 'thanks driver!' or something as I leave the bus. Doesn't hurt anything and they don't have to answer because I am already gone.

Angepain posted:Some places use commas for thousands separation and periods for the decimal point, others do it the other way round. we simply cannot let this stand simply because it's usually pretty obvious unless you go to exactly three decimal places like a weirdo. I propose two new symbols. let's say 1/234/567~89. Or maybe 1~234~567/89. Hmm. Tell you what we'll try it both ways in different countries for a 20-year trial period or so and then once we've decided which one is better we'll get everyone to switch to the clearly better one pillion has loving slain me

Shadow0 posted:I'm not sure why, but it seems like most languages except English consider a set or combo a "menu", and then people assume it's the same in English. This is the struggle I must endure every day. Yeah in English a menu is the thing you pick from in a restaurant. List of possible items.

I work in a pharmacy and several times a day I have to say something like 'but what does the system think your surname is?' Because anything other than western Anglo firstname-lastname is impossible for the dumb thing to parse.
