Be sympathetic. Perhaps he/she/it will take pity on you futurely. You can buy brownie points if he/she/it remembers how sympathetic ya were. No I did not say PATHETIC. I said "sympathetic".Why not? What could it hurt? Everyone says so. When in Rome do as the Romans do.Roll me over in the clover roll me over roll me over do it again. Because it is the right thing to do. less

Assuredly?Chatter blather gibberish is safe isn't it? Very safe. Is that why we the people immerse ourselves in it all the time? Escape to safe whatever it takes and stay there as long as it takes? Sheesh.
That is the level of communication that many if not most homo saps enjoy.They do not listen...they do not read what's there... so when they reply they make no sense.Why?

Does every human do it? Or only a chosen few? I dunno. It takes all kinds don't it though? All kinds of minds and the mindless too. Sometimes you cannot differentiate among them.

The perfect dynamic duo!We KNOW there are some who refuse to do what the scientists tell us is the way to contain the virus. Even though even so they will NOT social distance. They will NOT mask. They will NOT glove. No matter what. Their choice. Their right. But of course that means we are all DOOMED to suffer for their choices. For how long? I don't know but I'm thinking for the rest of our lives and perhaps beyond. A scientist said it will take TWO YEARS to contain. That is if and only if EVERYONE does what the scientists say they must. We know millions give that a middle finger so that's out.Our right to survive versus their right to play Russian Roulette with our lives. It is what it is. They are what they are. Is everybody happy? Buckle up. less

So I guess he would know.Some HUGE percentage of domestic terrorism has been credited to WHITE SUPREMACISTS.So maybe they are the most successful and would be perfect candidates to get an award for efficiency and success rate. Maybe the members could have gold pins they'd wear proclaiming they are the best at what they do.Imagine being rewarded for being the BEST hater? Golly whiz. What an honor! less

*”The hill you want to die on describes something so important to you that you are willing to fight to the death to accomplish it. Often, the idiom the hill you want to die on is used when describing something that will make or break one’s reputation, or result in either glory or ignominy. The phrase is often used in a question: Is this the hill you want to die on? This question may be considered a warning that taking a certain stance will probably result in defeat of one sort or another. The idiom the hill you want to die on is derived from a military term. Fighting to take the position of a hill from an enemy is nearly impossible and results in mass casualties. One must be sure that the hill is worth the cost of taking it.”DISCLAIMERS: I cut and pasted the above description from a randomly-selected website, I have not altered its wording and am therefore not responsible for the use of a preposition at the end of the idiom/phrase, LOL.

In the example above, it seems extremely awkward to use a second set of parentheses inside an initial or original set of parentheses. I can’t imagine that any style guide would recommend this practice, so there must be suggestions on alternatives.
