This is right on the money, and it makes me proud of my fellow musicians. But isn't it a sad commentary on the general state of social media that common human decency, as displayed in this thread, feels kind of special and rare?
Anyone remember when 538,com had Hillary's chances at something like 90%?
Oh, that example, I totally agree. I was fixated on "Buffalo buffalo Buffalo buffalo buffalo buffalo Buffalo buffalo." Strangely, commas don't work in that one.
Due to the restrictive clause the only proper punctuation is the ending period.
I am a Gen-Xer who was raised Catholic in America. The old-school church values of my childhood in the 1970s were mostly liberal democratic, promoting humility, circumspection, and Golden Rule, love-thy-neighbor attitudes. (Setting aside the entire organization's liability for the systematic raping of children, that is, which is a lot to ask.)
But with the more extreme politics of groups like Opus Dei, the modern Catholic Church in America, by contrast, has become a right-wing propaganda machine. It promotes a noxious brand of pseudo-religious pomposity and holier-than-thou windbaggery, practiced by preening, empty-headed bigots and jackasses who couldn't find real spirituality if it bit them in the ass.*
*Just my opinion, but I'm fucking right.
