      That’s why I don’t care if I make mistakes in english. It’s not my native language and I make far fewer mistakes than some americans lol

        At least you know they aren’t using AI. Anyways, boneappletea.

            The only way to outsmart AI is to use idioms incorrectly.

            Until the AI figures out this little trick. Then we all just talk like we’re stupid.

                “Artificial intelligence” finally makes sense. We artificially dumb down our own human output to evade AI, artificially inflating how intelligent it seems.

                                      When they make that whiffing noise, that’s your legs telling you that you’re getting exercise, and exercise is good for you, so you’re hearing agreement.

                              The best one I heard was “Hull in a blue” but alI also like “Moo point”

                                  “Moo point” might be an intentional eggcorn meant to reference to Friends. Joey famously calls it a “moo point” and justifies is by saying that it is “Like a cow’s opinion. It doesn’t matter. It’s moo.”

                                  And, “hull in a blue” isn’t a true eggcorn because it doesn’t technically make logical sense in context… but, to be fair, it makes exactly as much sense as “hullabaloo” does, so…

                                      I often see ‘mute point’ for ‘moot point’

                                          My boss says this. He’s a c-suite exec. Nobody corrects him.

                                                    I’m guessing this supposed HR person is also not a native speaker.

                                                        I wouldn’t guess that at all.

                                                          With how many native speakers still mess up your and you’re, and especially “should of” instead of should’ve, I would actually wager theyre a native speaker
