Too many, crossing an intersection with a traffic light makes that commute unwalkable. In my suburbia, going from one shop to another 5 doors down requires driving.
It's just a manipulative word that lets you incite people while not actually revealing what was said.
Feel free to post one simple link for us.
You can't do that but you can follow the above sentence with 1000 more words?
My favorites: Ivory soap--bubbles outward; Grapes--see article; Incandescent lightbulb --lights up; Wine bottle--explodes, do this last
Also lots of things you think would be bad do nothing: spray paint can, soup can, silverware, cup of gas with aluminum foil in it.

Explain the program and then call it'ACA' and people loved it. Explain the program and call it 'Obamacare' and polled people disliked it.
Shakespeare was wrong about roses.
Car analogy--I never had to take my 1976 Olds Cutlass in because the key fob got out of sync or because the touchscreen got fried or the electronic power steering module shorted or... or .. or
More points of failure = more failure.
Pass your 'no KOSA' law. And then when they want KOSA, they just pass KOSA with a sentence that says this KOSA law supersedes prior 'No KOSA' laws.
You need to limit their power to do that and the only way is constitutionally.
I just don't get people and their nano aggressions.
Second, no one sport has more cheating than any other with similar stakes.
Third, "cheating" is more of a spectrum than binary. Travelling with the basketball is cheating and sometimes penalized. Having your husband kneecap your Olympic skating rival is cheating as well.
Fourth, "cheating" is relative and always in flux. You could head slap an NFL receiver in the 1970's, but no longer. Forward passes in the NHL were illegal in olden times, but fine today.
I'd say 'God bless you sir', but that's hate speech as well now.
Either be brave enough to stand up for what you believe in or shut up and do your capitulation in silence.
So now when the voters want something they no longer put a law on the ballot, they put a Missouri amendment on the ballot. Those can't just be overwritten by a legislature law, those must either be found unconstitutional or canceled out by another amendment.
It's a fun game the voters of Missouri and their representatives have created for themselves.
In fact forget the salad.
Say you are a lender, you want someone who constantly uses credit, always pays their bills and has the capacity take on new debt. That's what FICO is for.
It's not some consumer reward system. It's not your score to game, it's a score on you for companies to game. Quit playing the game.
Credit score NULL.
'Ottawa condemns Chinese executions of four Canadians on drug charges'
Instead of that weirdly tensed one? 'Had executed' makes it seem like they undid the executions.
Remember how Pluto stopped being a planet because 'planet' went from just a word to a technical term with a well defined definition? Most words don't have that.
So, tax is any money given to the government. Income tax, sales tax, fees for registering cars, admittance to national parks, etc etc. Anytime the government collects any money that is a tax.
To paraphrase a great statesman---a lottery is just a tax with extra steps.
Less and less single and double deck tables, dealers placing the cut card nearer the middle of the shoe, more restrictions on doubling down and they changed blackjack to pay 6 to 5 instead of 3 to 2.
