“Knee high to a grasshopper” (short)
“Beyond the pale” (outside social norms, I think. Maybe just strange)
“Dance maven”
“I’ll just do that in my copious free time…” (sarcastically, because you are too busy)
“Copacetic” (it’s all good)
“Heavy” (meaning important, grave)
I learned all of these thirty years ago from a man in his fifties. He was full of interesting expressions.
Just curious, how would someone do that? Pardon my noobiness.
There can be enough work. We can build parks, fund art, literature, music. If the needs of society are met with less labour, the free hours can be put to creative work.
But that requires a government for the people.
Like that, but instead of buying a tomato it’s shaping minds.
This is the flaw in the hybrid socialist-capitalist system. Billionaires will sell out national interests.
We’ll see if the government is able to rein in Hutchison.
When I get five levels deep in a cascade of UI errors I terminate the mission and mark it as failed.
88 is a lucky number in Vietnam. You’ll see Vietnamese restaurants use 88 in their name sometimes.
Different cultures, different meanings. Not that Nazis are a culture. They are distinctly uncultured.

This is utterly ridiculous and also rather interesting. You could buy a house for $80k USD in some parts of the world. That this head-chopper wears it on his wrist shows that he is actually a civilized statesman, apparently.

“Battle for Pokrovsk: The Ukraine that city could be the most important of the war” Do they check their titles for grammar?

10 seconds to explosion. Time enough to watch the pressure wave and sip the Folgers.
Rules based international order, indeed!
You don’t realize how severe the spanking is though…
ASD being autism spectrum disorder and that flow breaking is an issue for people on the spectrum?
He was smoking the reefer, too! He sold that film for drug money.
Tariffs can be paid by the export country, indirectly. They usually have to lower the price of the commodity to make it competitive under tariffs.
Under Fordist economics the domestic industrial boost would lead to increased wages and buying power.
Under neoliberalism the domestic industrial capitalists gain a larger market share and then don’t pay their workers more. Then they are faced with the problem of what to do with products that are unaffordable.
The strange thing here is that Marty McFly is using the slang “heavy” and Doc Brown doesn’t understand it. Yet the use of heavy to mean “profound, serious” started in Jazz in 1937. So Doc would have grown up with the word, and by the 80’s I wonder if it was really all that popular anymore. McFly is using 50’s slang in the '50s but the guy from the '50s doesn’t get the slang. Maybe because he’s not hip.
