Personally, I'm not too keen on this idea. I mean sure, it's great that the average Joe can now read this kind of stuff, but wasn't the whole idea of jargon to be that it couldn't possibly be interpreted any other way?
Plain English can have multiple interpretations based on what is being said and what words are being used.
I guess we'll just have to wait and see what kind of consequences arise from this.

The basic speak sentence seems pretty hard to wiggle out of, to me.
Let's just do it all in "Soup Nazi" speak.
"What, you want cheddar? No disaster declared? NO cheddar FOR YOU."

In one striking change, the government is becoming "we" and citizens are becoming "you."
Why does this strike me as somewhat ominous?

We've been redoing our pool recently. By this I mean my dad, my stepmother, my grandfather, and myself have been out chipping away at coping stones and shit, not hiring a company to do it.
A few days ago, we discovered some trees near the pool have a fungus and need to be chopped down.
I get home from school, find work being done, go out and join in to haul some wood down to our field. We all finish up, I come inside, hop onto photoshop to space out for a bit.
When I come downstairs, I discover my dad decided to stay outside working in the rain without telling anybody and that in the space of a few hours he has entirely removed one of the 40+ foot pine trees one his own.
holy shit

duno if this was addressed already, but on the AZ front page, why is the ad on the left bid at $26 while the one on the right is $6?
seems almost as if people with tiny monitors are just cut out of seeing the right-side banner ad entirely? who still does that

Is tinychat still a thing, or do we all just Skype now?
