  • True, but is it pedantic? The same people that complain they can’t find a job are the ones that make huge grammar mistakes in their applications or résumés.

    I wouldn’t hire someone who was too lazy to proofread over someone who wasn’t; would you? And then why should that rule not apply to your fellows on the internet?

    Sometimes if you don’t point out people’s mistakes, you’re actually hurting their future selves

    I think everyone nowadays is a bit too accepting of other people’s faults to try to seem a bit more morally superior themselves, without realising that they’re actually being abusive in the long term

    Anyway, I’m not actually serious here, I just wondered who would actually read this far

  • A french bakery is called a boulangerie, because for centuries bread was prepared in a bowl, or boule. That gave the loaves a particular round shape, like an inverted bowl

    Amazingly, it wasn’t until the late 17th century that someone thought, “You know what, I could make this into different shapes, like maybe a stick shape!”
