Don't tread on me! = Go tread on "Them!"

Oh I know, just having fun with the optical illusion. :-)

If you don't mind me asking, are you AuDHD? 🖐️ Or is this an ADHD kinda thing too? 😅

I instigated a transatlantic Cockney rhyming slang version. In Cockney the rhyme is usually the word that's missing, so you just have to know what it means.

For example:

  • "Apples" -> apples and pears = stairs
  • "Sky" -> sky rocket = pocket
  • "North" -> north and south = mouth

Resulting in:

  • USA: "Taking a dump"
  • Dump -> Donald Trump (rhyme)
  • Britain: "Going for a shit"
  • Our family: "Going for a Donald"

I'm also writing this while going for a Donald.

British person here. In Britain a trump is an extremely smelly fart:

"Pfwoaaah that reeks! Who fackin trumped in ere?"

I got accused of being an AI for writing a comment reply to someone which was merely informative, empathic and polite!

Once user trust is burned it's not coming back.

There are no positive outcomes available now - it's time to abandon Google.

Linux phones arriving sooner? Hopefully that's the silver lining.

Damn for a moment I thought you were about to say "Feed his corpse to the pigs and set those pigs on fire!"

Which almost seemed reasonable given the circumstances and necessity of a thorough disposal.
