Reply to comment by Haarunen in The water you drink is older than earth by Haarunen
That's not what you said. You made a blanket, absolute statement. I pointed out that the age of the water we drink is not absolute, it varies considerably.

Well yes, cladistically speaking, sure.
But that's like saying Hippos are Cetaceans... Which is true, but calling Hippos Whales is a bit of a stretch.

Not necessarily. There is such a thing as space travel now. Expensive, but it still exists.

Reply to comment by DryGaming14 in W is the only letter in the alphabet with more than one syllable by chronolucks
In English we pronounce Z as "zed" ; American English is not English.

It also has a complete word in it’s pronunciation: “Double.” Does that mean all the letters in double existed and were being used before we invented W?

About a soft f, not that comes to mind right now. But that said, I'm no linguist or language teacher.

Guilty. I also let the guy next to me jump ahead when a traffic light turns green - first guy into the intersection usually takes the hit from the red-light runner.
