Why is this getting down voted?
I went to Rotten Tomatoes to read the reviews. Had me cracking up with how negative they were. Lol
I didn’t even need to read the whole post to know you dodged a bullet. I believe that’s why people say “miss me with that”.
Read that as “Minnesota Guy”.
Yup. That phenomenon is called “analogical change”. The opposite happens too though! For example, “person” and “parson”.
Actuallyyy…
Goose comes from Old English, where they pluralized [go:s] (think “goes” with a soft S) by adding [iz] (like “ease”).
When saying [go:siz], it was kinda hard for the mouth to switch the vowels from the [o] to the [i] quickly, so to save themselves the trouble, they’d change the first vowel to make it a little more similar to the second, so [go:siz] became [ge:siz].
Then, that was too long, so they dropped the [z]. [ge:si] (think “guessy” but the “e” lasts a bit longer than usual).
Then, that was too long, so they dropped the [i]. [ge:s] (“guess” with that same drawn out “e”).
📯It’s the Great Vowel Shift!📯 Now, [go:s] and [ge:s] become [gu:s] and [gi:s]. Almost there!
The vowels become a tad short over time, and now, you have [gus] and [gis] which are written “goose” and “geese”.
But “MOOSE”? That’s Algonquin. It has nothing to do with all that noise. “But they sound the same and are written the same?!” So? Haven’t you heard? English orthography is a dumpster fire. Nobody knows what they’re doing. Not even the words.
I won’t sit idly by while there is a PRETENDER TO THE THRONE.
I hate to be “that zoologist” (because I’m not a zoologist), but isn’t that a shrew?
Totally get why he didn’t want this to become his identity. Especially when he was so new to the mainstream. Dope song though.
Note that some studies show nine mouse days are roughly equivalent to one human year.
Excuse me?
The MOMENT I get a receipt for groceries and stuff, I crumple it up and toss it on my way out the door. I hate having trash float around like that.
Walking around with your passport is a dangerous game.
You want the president of Argentina to send forces from Venezuela, a country on the other end of South America, to Jerusalem? A country out in the Middle East?
Honestly, there are times after my meds wear off that I have literally forgotten what I was going to say halfway through the sentence. Lol
Surprise! My mom does this too, and the frustrating part is that she’s wrong about the second half of my sentence a LOT of the time. It ends up being rude and makes the conversation even longer because I have to waste additional time going, “No, I was going to say…” instead of simply finishing the sentence and continuing on.
So congratulations. You’re playing yourself. (I also have ADHD.)
I believe they’re on pornlemmy.com or lemmy.world. There might be on on lemmynsfw.com! There’s a few, some of which are similarly named, and some of which have the same name but are on different instances.
Subscribed. Don’t forget c/fitgirls. 😌 Hm, hm, yes, yes. You’ll thank me when you discover @vladigal.

If you click the line, there’s a video interview with the guy that line is about. Apparently, that line caused a rift between him and Biggie. Wonder why?
