  • It’s literally what the song says. On the first day, I got a partridge in a pear tree. On the second day, I got 2 turtle doves and a partridge in a pair tree.

    If you think the gifts weren’t given recursively it’s because you believe it should be that way, not because you’re listening to the lyrics as they’re written.






  • I encourage you to pay close attention when they start teaching the concept of comparison in 2nd grade.

    The point was to shine a light on the fallacy that one person’s experience represents the whole. What else were you trying to bring to the conversation except to say, “I think Windows is fine.”

    Comparing Windows to racism would sound more like, “Windows and racism are similar because…”

    I also find it an inaccurate, lazy, played-out “joke” to say, “only people from x would y.” That’s an unthoughtful way to try and reduce people to your own bias and prejudice. I prefer something like, “only an idiot tries to shit on someone else and group together large swaths of humanity because they don’t understand what’s being said but they still want to to feel relevant.”
