Americans will do anything other than buy an electric kettle.

Who said I’d still have toes?

Agreed. Funnily I’m from a more temperature country and she’s from where I’m at now, but she’s the one that is always cold and wants to keep it at ~22. I ain’t gonna argue considering she pays the electricity bill, though.

It’s gonna get down to -30°C this week, I’ll turn the heat off and just throw on the good ol’ toque and a sweater and report back, assuming I still have fingers.

More like [ˈd̪ät̪ä], no long vowel.

That’s my B, I was looking at Ecclesiastical Latin for that one :3

Interesting points though, thanks for the elaboration. Shows the layers of silliness that is depending upon other languages for the way we pronounce words.

Your science teacher was wrong, unfortunately. In Classical Latin, datum is pronounced as [ˈd̪ät̪ʊ̃ˑ] “dah-too(m)” and likewise data as [ˈd̪äːt̪ä] [ˈd̪ät̪ä] “dah-tah.”

Not that Latin should really have a say in how we speak English anyhow.

Air Canada should be top 5 imo. I want my three nights in an expensive hotel (the only one with available rooms, at that) reimbursed, goddammit, I don’t care if it was out of your control due to “weather” on the nice, sunny day that my wife was having at my destination.

I might be a little biased…
