If we say that the accepted pronunciation of "X" is "ex" then we run into an even bigger problem than Prince's logo.

"Ex" User says... Is this a former user of the website or current?

A user on the website "ex" is too long winded and sounds like I'm saying a hypothetical.

Users on "ex" - although shorter, X is a street name for ecstacy and user is sometimes used as shorthand for drug user (e.g. User and abuser) so why should we be listening to a cracked out party kid?

The golden ticket is "formerly Twitter" because we actually know what the fuck that one is.

I'm willing to bet there's at least one X user on X right now.

How long was Prince "The Artist Formerly Known as Prince"?

Yeah, the rest of his life.

Twitter probably will have the same laid upon it.

Compared to most Dilbert strips, it was actually in the top ten.

Everyone has already told you it's not a precedent but I should also note the eminent domain literally only requires the US to pay a fair market price, not for them to not take it.

Shit, I've taken cognitive tests after all of my concussions.

I mean, I believe in you. You technically CAN do something about that. It will probably break in the process though.

Look at it this way, BMI is a cross section of weight and height. I was considered "overweight" for ages because I just had tree trunk thighs from hiking and weightlifting. Like, less than 16% body fat but told I'm 'overweight' every time I got weighed.

The ruler was fucking wrong.

Nowadays, I'm much more of a fat fuck so the ruler is right now but only just so... I'm still under 25% when using hydrostatic!

engraved in their gun's sights while doing the seeking?

Not sights, Dust cover. Meaning the only way the message is exposed is if the user has loaded a round in the chamber.

Which is so, so much worse.

Yeah, I don't correct my black coworkers but I've certainly not said that I have the itis in a long, long time.

Be nice if there was an easy way to just do this with any car. Like, I'm willing to get you could get a rough model with FreeCAD and some references but it'd be really cool to have a drive through laser scan or something.

I found one near me for $10k. She's ugly, like all Souls, but she's tempting.
