In public, generally, but not at home. Not a boomer, but ADHD. I set my phone down so many random places and I would not realize it was going off unless it were in front of my face. And if I need to have it called so I can find it, it is much easier hear.
The one that gets me is ending a statement with a rhetorical “yeah?”. It doesn’t bother me so much as it surprises me because I almost never run into anyone using it, but when I do, they use it with incredible frequency.
Ya know…
It hits differently when you realize she is an AI chatbot.
That took me a while. My first thought was it was an ad hoc durometer gage for cushion foam or jello or something, but the scale was backwards…
Anyway. Isopropanol/isopropyl-alcohol/that-shit-in-the-medicine-cabinet will take care of it. I use it all the time.
A fun quirk of Orcish is that the word used for “to gather” translates more closely to “squabble”, because that is as congenial as they get when they gather together.

There a real easy answer to that question. The reason they should say “hi” is because they want to. If they don’t want to, then by golly, they don’t have to. It’s as simple as that. Personally, I am not going to foist upon every rando on my block or in my apartment building, the burden of meaningless formalities just because I go to bed every night closer to them than 8 billion other folks’. I let them be so that they can get about with their busy day. That’s just plain considerate.
Only if they say “hi” first. There’s no reason to engage if they don’t.
That “qp” outline has to be an establishment’s logo, right? Otherwise, the forked scrotum and bifurcated torso it don’t make sense, anatomically. Distinguishable, yes, but puzzling otherwise.
Hell yeah! Sugar momma bought him a fancy watch. She does treat him so good.

It’s all about context. There are options that are context and age appropriate that aren’t condescending or clinically reductive.
Men’s bathroom and Women’s bathroom > male bathroom and female bathroom
“Hey, guys/gents”, “hey, girls/ladies” > “hey, men”, “hey, women”
First woman President > first female President > first girl President

I’m pretty sure “acting lawfully” and “having immunity from prosecution for illegal actions” are two different things. Just because the president cannot be prosecuted does not change the fundamental nature of the deed, only the consequences thereof.
Dismissal?
She gets knocked down, but she gets up again. You’re never gonna keep her down.
Welp! I didn’t have “President gives Nazi salute” on my bingo card…
