Should have just put up a sign for cat soup and silently point at it for anyone who still ask.

Did he grab a hold of you and slap you in the face while talking to you in human language?

But fire has long been used in scientific experiments. You’re a lab rat.

US defaultism? In most western countries people don’t, and aren’t allowed to, carry guns.

Me neither.

Typical. My bedroom only has standard earth gravity around the clock.

Another LLM of course.

Have you tried modulating your intake? Too much will most definitely make you a moron. Small amounts have a positive effect on me.

Are we about to discover the first extraterrestrial lifeforms around Uranus?

Most people in the US don’t vote because those parties don’t meet their needs.

Even if that’s true that doesn’t mean they all agree and would vote for the same candidate. In fact that seems very unlikely given how distributions usually look. And in a first past the post system people usually vote for the party that has the biggest chance of beating the party they dislike the most, not for the party they like the most, and over time that usually leaves the system with only two viable parties that a lot of people don’t like. But it doesn’t mean they all agree.

Wdym? Harris looks like she might win over Trump. And yes, the Democrats would prefer Trump over someone like Sanders who wants to change the country in a fundamental way to benefit the people instead of corporations and the rich - the two groups that both parties work for.

While I agree that someone like Sanders would be a better candidate, it would require him (as an example) to have the full support of the Democratic party. And he certainly does not have that, as seen previously when he was running as a Democrat and the Democrats fought him harder than they’ve ever fought a Republican.

Harris is the only realistic non-republican candidate on the table, and so far she’s doing way better than Biden did and would have done. Biden certainly would have lost this election, Harris has a decent chance of winning. A Democrat Sanders would have lost due to constant sabotage by the Democrats and the Democratic aligned media outlets. An independent Sanders would also have lost, and split the vote for a Republican win.

At least that’s my 2 cents.

?

Thank you.

That’s what I’m saying! It does not say anywhere that it’s spelled extrAverted in the UK. If anything it says the exact opposite.

According to the Oxford English Dictionary, “The original spelling ‘Extravert’ is now rare in general use but is found in technical use in psychology.”

(emphasis mine)

Maybe I’m tired but this comment reads to me as if you’re disagreeing with me when everything you say supports what I said? My objection/question was how you came to the conclusion it’s a US/UK thing. There’s no support for that in the article.

Correct. But extrOvert makes no sense, etymologically (latin). The dictionaries accept it, but I (jokingly) don’t.

Tldr A British English, O American English

What? How did you get to that conclusion? That’s not what the article says at all? It says Phyllis Blanchard used the (then incorrect) spelling with an O (while also changing the definition of the term to something most people I think would disagree with) in a paper she wrote and nobody knows why. And it spread from there.

I think you’re interpreting “Today, ExtrOvert is the most common spelling of the term in the United States.” to mean it’s spelled with an A elsewhere, but the author even brings up the Oxford Dictionary (UK) that says that the original spelling with an A is rare in general use. I live outside the US and I pretty much exclusively see the O-spelling.

EDIT: Changed from “incorrect” to “then incorrect” to clarify. She wrote her article before extrOvert entered the dictionary, and - according to the author of the article linked earlier in this thread - her article might have been a big contributing factor for it entering the dictionary that was published soon after.

I get so much satisfaction whenever I see extravert spelled correctly, which is very rare these days.
