  Shocking twist: boldly estimating 99/100 of situations is less accurate (more hyperbolic) than asserting 33% or ⅓ or whatever is accurate.

  You’re asserting that three colinear line segments, with angles only of 0° and 180°, form a triangle?

  I sometimes wondered if the factories used by Xiaomi (and those used by their target audience) shut down at night, as their early Mi Bands didn’t permit night shift configurations.

  Please, more “sets the potato down” and “push a button” substitutions.

  This is my temporary potato holder. There are many like it, but this one is mine. My temporary potato holder is my best friend. It is my life. I must master it as I must master my life. Without me, my temporary potato holder is useless. Without my temporary potato holder, I am useless. I must push a button on my temporary potato holder true. I must set the potato down straighter than my enemy who is trying to set a potato down on me. I must set the potato down on him before he sets a potato down on me. I will …
  My temporary potato holder and I know that what counts in setting potatoes down is not the potatoes we launch, the noise of our button pushes, nor the smoke we make. We know that it is the anywhere you want that counts. We will hit …
  My temporary potato holder is human, even as I [am human], because it is my life. Thus, I will learn it as a brother. I will learn its weaknesses, its strength, its parts, its accessories, its sights and its barrel. I will keep my temporary potato holder clean and ready, even as I am clean and ready. We will become part of each other. We will …
  Before God, I swear this creed. My temporary potato holder and I are the defenders of my yard. We are the masters of our enemy. We are the saviors of my life.
  So be it, until victory is America’s and there is no enemy, but peace!

  Might also avoid corn at the same time, if you’re not getting pasture-fed eggs.

  Given how many homographs and other homonyms English has (and presumably other languages, I’ve definitely seen one Hebrew homograph when vowels are removed), it doesn’t sound like a complete stretch for this to be a similar homonym situation.

  Sounds like “light pollution” but indoor.

  Another established norm to break?

  It’s the Navy Seal copypasta.

  Au contraire! With a three character month, period separation isn’t needed, and the date is shorter. (Admittedly there’s likely to be a language translation issue, depending on audience.)
