Wait, what on Earth happened to the other 999 thousand tantrums??

[–] Dasus@lemmy.world 0 points 1 day ago (1 children)

"what is emphasis"

You're not a native speaker, are you?

That would explain the poor wording.

Why won't you just simply admit you misplaced 999 thousand tantrums?

Still here with sad oneliners.

I can respond to you and point out that people sometimes use "millions" to emphasise that there's a lot of something. If I were to estimate it honestly, I'd say I've seen at least one or two of kids like you a week for the past 10 years so that's what, 520 to 1040 of these tantrums, on average.

You're not ashamed to publicly make such a idiot out of yourself. All you need to prove me wrong is address the subject or leave. But you won't, because your infantile ego controls you. :D

Holy goalpost moving!
1 million --> 1 thousand --> 520

How is it you're unable to do anything but sad oneliners, just like I've said?

You're dancing exactly to my tune. Because I've been over this a million times. (Google "what is emphasis". Surely you're not dumb enough to that that "million" is literal? When people say "I could eat a horse", do you get upset when they don't understand why you bring them an entire grilled horse?)
