That's why they try to make celebrities look as unnatural as possible so you buy the products to look like them

No, I'm saying the dialogue is tailored for gen z, not accuracy.

John Wayne movies make me nostalgic.
My grandparents were huge fan and there always seemed to be one of his movies on their old TV. Reminds me of visiting them and my grandmother smoking in the house.

Well, it's never too late to start! John Wayne movies are a classic and a must-watch for any movie buff. Plus, his iconic cowboy looks and deep voice make for some great entertainment.

Also any product can be made to look plain so that you think you're getting a real bargain.

Physics equations would probably be much uglier if the direction of temperature were the other way, if they could get them to work at all.

Having been through both the invitro and adoption process, I agree with you 100%. OP is an asswipe who obviously has never been through it and has NO idea what he's talking about. And probably doesn't realize that he's an asswipe.

I believe all you are saying is that a 1 to 1 function f(x) can be applied to another g(x) losslessly.
Similarly there’s no need to chart velocity on a linear scale or have ph be exponential. We can apply 1 to 1 functions to these at will to arrive at other mappings we can use without loss of information.
I think it’s likely a true statement but I won’t attempt to prove it.
Do you see any computational advantage to using your inverted mapping?

I mean my 2 year old is a parrot right now. She just repeats everything we say. I don’t really want her dropping curse words because we’ve said them so yeah we refrain from swearing in front of her.

and get a prescription for fluocinonide ointment from your dentist. Apply and let it sit for at least 5 minutes twice a day for two days (must catch them small) and they disappear!

Wrong. Predators exist and always will. Tell the rabbit everything's peaceful as the snake squeezes the life out of his eyes. Yin and Yang.

Try clapping out the syllables for "prism" with its singular vowel. The "m" is sonant, a speech sound that by itself makes a syllable.

So you're saying there couldn't possibly have been a friend group like this in Wisconsin in the 90s
