I still have faith in humanity. Things get rough sometimes but I think we'll pull through.

Who the hell refers to their significant other as their "lover"?

Sure, they're allowed to, and we're allowed to comment that it's weird when he brings it up unprompted. Which it is. So much so that I wonder if this is just bait that we all fell for.

You're right, this isn't news and doesn't belong here. This is an opinion piece.

Not in this case. Lilo and Stitch is only 23 years old, the copyright isn't close to expiring.

The goal is to make a lot of money, because people will go see these movies. All these Disney live action remakes have made a ton of money.

Yeah, language can be very fun. That's why I'm saying those terms are fun novelties, like a Lemmy username, not really useful in any practical sense.

Those aren't the ones I'm talking about. Flocks, herds, and schools apply to many different kinds of birds, land animals, and fish, respectively. Why would anyone need to use the word "murder" instead of "flock" for crows? A cackle of hyenas? A conspiracy of lemurs? Let's be serious here. What's wrong with saying a group of lemurs?

If I have enough money to worry about my kids' inheritance, I'm probably not maxing out credit cards to buy groceries.

If I don't, then fuck it, they can take 10 or 20k off the sale of my house and live with that.

And in the latter case, why are my kids expecting inheritance after not helping me with affording essentials?

Does anybody actually use these goofy terms for groups of animals? Seems like they mostly exist as a novelty.

[–] cattywampas@lemm.ee 5 points 1 day ago

Some catty wampas, likely.

Super Mario World feels like the most Mario game.

Super Mario 64 is my most nostalgic.

Super Mario Odyssey is a masterpiece and imo the overall best Mario game.
