And I was laughing as I typed my response to it.

Of those "Ortho" is the easiest one for me to understand happening. It's a root/prefix (orthopedist) as well as being a brand of gardening chemicals. I suspect the player who's doing both is hearing the other players who are doing one each and combining them. I understand the frustration...

I would point out to K's player that intentionally shortening it is less mocking-ish than persistently stumbling through it and/or mispronouncing it. If there were some other syllable the player would prefer I use, I'd be happy to use that. I've played at least one character with a more or less...

That looks like a hard name to persistently mispronounce. I mean, I see a couple-three ways to pronounce it, but they're all simple. (My first guess is long o's, th unvoiced?)

Tables I've been at would have called that character "K."

Bowie died in January of 2016. Prince died in June of that year.

It's Bowie and Prince dying. They were taking all the Weirdness into themselves instead of allowing it to run loose in the timeline.

I think there's a difference between being angry and holding grudges--and I say this as someone who can hold a grudge like a professional.

Some things are worth being angry about. Some things are not. Knowing the difference is the really difficult part, I think. Also, that will be different for different people.

Unrelated to the above: I don't think I agree with your definition/s, I don't think my response/s would be helpful. I mean, I think I see what went wrong, but I don't think you want to hear it.

It's funny, the more I read PKD's novels the more I think he should have stuck to short stories.

An even dozen is enough, I agree.

Unrelated to the above: He is not listening to the advice you are trying to give, because you have convinced him that what he wants to do will work. Good job, well done.

Not even this site: What you seem to be describing sounds an awful lot like generals, historically, having been ready to fight the most recent war, not the one they were currently fighting.

Neighbor, you've phrased that question extremely poorly. I will not answer either the question you've asked or the question you've meant to ask, though.

Seems as though if you think those two words are the same thing, the locus of at least some of your problems is clear.

There are so many people like that, here.

Since we're talking numbers, here, I read like 210 books last year, with another ten that I noped out of at some point along the way. (Some of the novels I finished, I might have been happier if I hadn't, but oh comma well.) Most of my reading seems to have been various sorts of crime and...

I have a relatively small stack of library books, and I'm returning a large stack tomorrow. I dunno if we'll walk through and do a browse or not. I also have no idea what book I'm going to read next.

This is intentional, right?
