It's literally what the song says. On the first day, I got a partridge in a pear tree. On the second day, I got 2 turtle doves and a partridge in a pair tree.

If you think the gifts weren't given recursively it's because you believe it should be that way, not because you're paying any attention to the lyrics as they're written.

This is commentary on Tucker saying that a demon attacked him and clawed him up while he slept.

Their formatting looked right to me on Jerboa

"You have poor reading comprehension."

"I ain't gonna read that."

I encourage you to pay close attention when they start teaching the concept of comparison in 2nd grade.

The point was to shine a light on the fallacy that one person's experience represents the whole. What else were you trying to bring to the conversation except to say, "I think Windows is fine."

Comparing Windows to racism would sound more like, "Windows and racism are similar because.."

I also find it an inaccurate, lazy, played-out "joke" to say, "only people from x would y." That's an unthoughtful way to try and reduce people to your own bias and prejudice. I prefer something like, "only an idiot tries to shit on someone else and group together large swaths of humanity because they don't understand what's being said but they still want to to feel relevant."

I cannot remember the last time I personally experienced racism so it must not be a real problem.

I don't think she was incorrectly flagged. She's not from here.

There's unsubstantiated and nonsensical assumptions in your comment starting with assuming that anyone who doesn't ingest alcohol does it to avoid exacerbating current health conditions, leading to those that drink moderately being healthier than those who don't drink. That's absurd.

I'll make an assumption of my own. A significant portion of your identify and social life is in "moderate" drinking and you're very keen to justify that as "healthy."

Caffeine is toxic at around 10 grams, which is 80-100 cups of coffee. I'd you're defining "toxin" as triggering adverse effects at any dosage, then you need to include water, oxygen, and every other substance in existence.

Alcohol is a biological toxin at any dosage. I find that people who argue this point aren't doing it from an academic standpoint but to justify their own behavior.

Please demonstrate the relevancy of your comment by citing medicinal uses of ingesting the alcohol in alcoholic beverages.
