Dog-eared means that a corner got folded down (making a diagonal) on a page as a bookmark. A dog-eared book isn’t necessarily beat-up beyond the damage to the corners of pages. Catty-cornered or kitty-cornered is adjacent to something on the diagonal, i.e. not orthogonally next to it like up, down, left, or right. So there is an argument to be made for a loose (coincidental) connection between those ideas, but I don’t think they come from the same roots.

EVERYONE that claims to appreciate only fine art is already pretending to be sophisticated.
How do you pronounce the U? Do you pronounce mould like should, would, or could? Is your pronunciation of mould then closer to mud than old with an M in front?
Expensive certifications that your employer will reimburse you for that potentially increase your earnings potential and value in the job market if you do change employers? Are those worth getting? Yes. Employer not paying you for them? Still, maybe yes. Do you really need to ask? Or are you looking for an excuse to not do the thing recommended by your mentors and that’s not giving you instant gratification and a dopamine hit (like this place does)?
The intro theme to Cheers.
I’ve used it. But mostly by the time I had created a deck to study, I didn’t need it anymore.
Start using it yourself. Use it in awkward, wrong, uncool ways. They’ll drop that shit like, “What the sigma Dad!?!”
I’m not biased and I’m not picking a side, but there is a lot of whataboutism is this thread and I stand by my stance that it is a weak argument and a logical fallacy.
I generally wash they with warm water and soap after I’m done or taking a break. I usually take one of those little dish soap bottles from the hotel when I travel to keep in the truck, cuts right through the grease and grime pretty well even if all you have is a jug of water on hand.

Whataboutism isn’t a very convincing argument.
Fair? What’s fair about how they hand out Oscars? Seriously. One example, I thought it has been pretty well established that awards are often handed out because of a person’s history of work and not only the current thing they are being awarded for this year. I’m sure this could be hotly debated, but I’ve never heard anyone accuse the Oscars of being fair.
Sports photography is not a cheap hobby. Expect to spend 10 times your budget just to get started. You can save (some) money by shopping used on sites like adorama or B&H. Older models of DSLR can be had for a pretty good deal because all the kids these days are hyped about mirrorless. Expect to do a lot of research and wade through a lot of articles written by gear obsessed people with money to burn. I think you can still browse archives of dpreview.com for some in depth reviews and specs, especially if you’re shopping older models.
Pretty much any consumer camera with an interchangeable lens will do the job, it’s the lens that will really determine how good a picture you can get. There’s a reason you see a lot of HUGE (and expense) lens on the sidelines. Megapixels are much less important these days because pretty much everything has enough. The metrics you’ll be looking to maximize will be a fast autofocus system, a fast lens, and a long enough focal length to get your view in close to your subject from a distance. You might be able to find something that is “good enough” in a cheaper range with a camera with a built-in lens. If you get bit by the photography bug though, that might turn out to be a waste of money if you decide you want to upgrade.
Any show with a cold open and Cheers, which also often had a cold open. Watching a Cheers cold open featuring Coach followed by the theme makes me feel (for a little bit) like a child and everything is going to be okay.
It was very different that the other versions and I appreciated it for that. It felt like a Lovecraftian tale with a touch more humanity than standard. The Hellboy wit from the other movies is still there, but it’s bone dry in its delivery and I think that worked to the advantage of the tone of this one. It wasn’t Hellboy out saving the whole world. But those lower stakes got more personal. This reviewer just seems put off that this movie didn’t meet their own expectations for it. The reviewer wanted another boring shocky big budget adventure/action/super hero movie. Instead, they got a spooky slow burn folk horror with an indie feel. I guess that offended them maybe. I think they’re just rage baiting click throughs for the ad revenue.
That’s not how physics or lawsuits work.
If they are using smaller blades, those blades are most certainly spinning much faster than the large blades of a riding or push mower. Thus you’re just trading mass for speed and the energy exchange can remain largely the same. You can see this for yourself if you drop items (like a handful of sunflower seeds to simulate rocks) through a spinning ceiling fan or a smaller table fan spinning significantly faster; both can easily throw those seeds that get hit by the blades around a large room. This is how the smaller blades on a lawn mower would even be able to do the same work as the larger blades of a mower.
Also many devices, like table saws, chainsaws, and lawn mowers and considered inherently dangerous to operate. Lawsuits over injury as a result of misuse (like letting children or pets into the yard while mowing) usually have to factor in this inherent danger. There are certain safety measures in place, but I guarantee no mower operator manual suggests letting kids or pets play around a mobile set of spinning metal blades. If you fail to follow the basic instructions in an operators manual while operating a dangerous device, you don’t have much ground in a lawsuit.
The “E” (and similarly the “IE”) at the end is a very different pronunciation indicator than an “E” in the middle of the word.
There’s no need for the weird hate in your spoiler tag just because you don’t understand something.
