Obviously, "end up" is the common idiom, so it's not like I run around criticizing people for their nonsensical word usage. Cause that would be a silly waste of time.


I thought a silly waste of time was what I came to the Asylum for! Smiley: tongue

Yes, but they are common phrases. As opposed to "End Out".

I think the reason that one works better for me over another is that since literally EVERYONE, except you, since the beginning of time has used end up, when I see end out, it is like seeing a fnord

If I walk three blocks down the road, I end up in the 7-eleven.
If I walk three blocks down the road, I end out in the 7-eleven.

How did I end up in this predicament?
How did I end out in this predicament?

Nope, just doesn't work for me.

We all realize from the past umpteen elections that you know fuck-all about elections, demographics, voting trends, polling, etc but there's no reason for you to revel in your self-imposed ignorance.

Yes, Gbaji, people keep looking at past electoral trends to help glimpse a probable future. They are all oh-so-very-silly for it. I get it: You have your usual need to show how much smarter you are then the fancy book-learnin' types with your grade school teacher approved Super Genius. You're also always wrong about anything even tangentially dealing with elections so no one really gives a shit.

California conservatives sound like a bunch of people who would rather roll around on the ground and cry at the first sign of opposition than actually do anything. I mean, ha ha, we have you proving that on an almost daily basis, but it's nice to see even you acknowledge that being the case.

No, you missed the point. He was bringing up you being catastrophically, unequivocally wrong about the most recent election to demonstrate your lack of credibility here. It's an ad hominem point, sure, but when someone is continuously, wildly, egregiously wrong about a subject it does sort of call into question why anyone would take their fact free guesses about the future outcome of said subject seriously. He's not arguing about the election, he's just making fun of you. Seemed pretty clear to me. Why would anyone argue electoral math with you? You're an idiot who doesn't understand it. Fact, not opinion.

"End up in the hospital" : you've been laid up, recovering from stitches, etc.

"End out in the hospital" : you're facedown on the hospital floor with a thermometer up your ***** Unrelated to any medical condition, of course.

Quote:
Both words can be used to describe a state one is in ("you're up" vs "you're out", "he's up to no good" versus "he's out of bounds"). I tend to view "up" as more about what someone's doing and "out" as where someone is, which is why I prefer to use "end out" instead of "end up".


Ok, so he's up of bounds instead of out of bounds. What up of bounds means is unclear, he may or may not be in the bound (on the up and up) or just feel like he's above the law.

Here's another crazy idea. Wiping with wipes!

Baby wipes in treatment plants have been an issue in the enviro-regulatory world for a decade or better. They don't biodegrade like tp or even paper towels and clog things up. I assumed it was people that were actually using baby wipes to wipe baby's bottoms or maybe wipe the make up off their face or maybe even to clean their hands in the absence of water.

It just dawned on me that these 'new' hygiene wipes that have become so popular are being used in lieu of toilet paper. Smiley: oyvey

We seem to have come so far, but when you look back and realize we've been wiping our butts with nothing but soft paper one realizes how far we have yet to go.

At my age I'll probably remain a relic of the old ways and continue wiping with Charmin til the end.

What do you wipe with?

Supposedly, the bathroom wipes break down but any plumber I've heard with an opinions says that they're great for the pipe rooting business. Baby wipes are (I believe) marked as not being flushable on the package but there's a lot of brands so maybe it varies.

The wife buys bathroom wipes and I use them when the situation calls for it but it's a short ride in the soil pipe from toilet to septic tank for us. Provided I get the septic tank emptied on schedule, I'm hoping they never become a problem.

Small packs of wet wipes are easier to carry than toilet paper, and that first month of a new and varied diet made carrying them a more practical choice in the field, so I just got used to it and tend to keep a supply in my bag. Mostly now for those times I forget the aftereffects of a lunch at Chipotle.

Jeez I must be living in a cave.

Who knew:
Quote:
Kleenex® Cottonelle Fresh Care Premoistened Wipes let you feel cleaner and fresher than dry toilet paper alone, anytime, anywhere. These wipes are designed for use by the whole family and are safe to flush (1 or 2 at a time) as they break apart in water after flushing. POP-UP lid easily dispenses one wipe at a time!


Break apart /= biodegrade, apparently, at least not in the time frame of the waste water cycle. There is no end to the stories of sewer problems from 'wipes'. The ad campaign Save Your Pipes, seems to be only implicating the actual 'baby' wipes.

I think our waste water treatment has fallen behind the times.

Do you have problems disposing of all the unicorn ****? I assume you need some kind of stall with hay etc in your bathroom? Since they're in the bathroom, can they just use the toilet?

Unicorn's are magical. I'm sure the first thing that got spirited away was all that ghastly body waste.
