If I can take family with me, I'm fairly optimistic about 200-500 years in the future. If it's a solo journey, probably the 90s. More time with my family, and I get to invest in some of the early internet shit, make billions, and buy up some senators so I can be optimistic about the 2020s.

Oh, that's a helluva question.

Knew I was gay at 14, knew I was different at 8ish.

Knew I wasn't social like other kids when I was 7 or 8.

Couple other ways I'll keep to myself, but give ya ages. 11, 13, 16, 21.

... are... Is... Nostrils?

As a born and raised southerner, y'all can be used for one person or many, with no clear limit on the number. All y'all is used to stress a point or to make it clear that it references everyone capable of hearing the message or just anyone who could be intended. All y'all is mainly used, in real world applications, in the sentence "all y'all can go fuck y'allself" or similar.

32, halfway through a bachelor's in creative writing, mainly worked as a security guard (read receptionist), cashier, and inbound call centers. :/

But fr, how does one woo a Canadian for citizenship? Teach me, and I promise I will make the daily offering to Tim Horton and eat the ritual poutine at least once weekly!

Could also be using a base 3 or binary system. Or the ever elusive base 1 system.

How many of those do you have?

111

Honestly, I can see Miles having a fight with Keiko and just being irritated enough to do something like this. Keiko is unreasonable, Molly is throwing a tantrum, Word has stayed over his time in the holodeck and he has nothing else to do.

"Fuck it," he says and transported up a village elder.

"I am Darmaninguan, god of all the Elzen people. Be not afraid, child. ... Instead, be absolute terrified. For I am an angry Irish god! Now return, and tell everyone they must never yell at their husbands for not eating fish soup for breakfast!"

Texas does not have a monopoly on y'all. Y'all is collective, both as a noun, and as ownership. Y'all is Southern for Comrade.

I was very confused how you knew I was a Trekkie at first. Lol.

What game is this?

Tmk, it's interchangable in the American South. Can't speak to south America, though. :p

I can't remember any other examples off the top of my head, but I just rewatched the one where Alexander gets dropped off into the enterprise by the grandparents. And I just feel so bad for this kid. In the episode with his mom, they clearly have a really strong bond. She loves him, he loves her. Then she does, worf basically says "look at her body! Look at her death!..btw, I'm your father" And then ships him off to a planet he's never been to, to live with people he's never met. Then those people, the only familial connection he has had since his mother's death, decide they just straight up don't want him anymore. He dad throws a tantrum in front him because he damn sure doesn't want the kid. Begrudgingly agrees to keep him, and when the kid makes a mistake and acts out, he's told he's going to be sent to live with Klingons. Given his mother's politics, probably something that scares the shit out of him.

And that's just in his first 2 appearances. That poor fucking child.
