and you don't end up looking like a punk poseur of one sort or another wearing them.

Indeed. Instead you end up looking like a hipster poseur.

Nah. Most hipsters couldn't afford them after paying for Vegan certified artisanal free-range tomatoes, plus I don't own enough flannel shirts and can't grow a long enough beard.

Hey there, guy on the off-grid living group -- no, English isn't your first language and yes, "cu" is the abbreviation for cubic and "m" is the abbreviation for meters, but please please please stop referring to the capacity of your tanks as "1.5 cum"

I am tempted to write the International Organization for Standardization and suggest cum be declared the official shorthand for cubic meter.

Wrong again dhex. It's 1500 liters.
Or maybe a "litre" is 136 4/₁₁ liters in dhex speak.

Yeah, everyone knows that volume of a 'cum' is not a cubic meter but about ten cubic centimeters.

Yes, but that's the small size. The medium and large sizes are magna cum and summa cum.

Where's the Esprit de Coeur d'Alene?

Idaho.

We've Spokane to you about this pun nonsense before.

[Aresen]

It's better than 'spirit of corpse', which I have heard more than once.

Serendipity plays a more meaningful role in any organizations sub-straight than I think any of us can give credit.

I stained the boards, let them dry, and then sanded them lightly to give the wood a "warn" look.

Somebody in this true crime show just said that the victim's life was "hanging by a shred."

Those are a rich mine of malapropisms. In the last couple days we've heard people say that a lack of progress in the case has left them "fustrated" and "flustrated", and one guy was asked if anyone could "clobberate" his alibi.

[JasonL]

"and one guy was asked if anyone could "clobberate" his alibi."

That episode sounds Grimm.

Truly outrageous. Truly truly truly outrageous.

That's fantastic.

"I changed my mind multiple times on how I wanted our pantry to look and work, but finally I think it's coming together just like I inversioned it in my head."

It's the top-down approach.

I'm in an 18 month project with someone who loves the word "extrapulate".

Keep the beans, rice, flour and pasta up high where the kids can't get to them, keep the booze and sugar down low where they can.

Is that pronounced extra-poolate, or extra-pullate?
