On accident

I kind of can’t take people seriously when they say On accident, I don’t know or care if its more or less grammatical, it sounds like a child sputtering in my mind. It should be By accident or accidentally

Tummy

Any adult has zero business saying this lol

    Excusing folks with dyscalculia, those of you who speak proudly and openly about how bad you are at math can die in a fire.

    Functioning adults are expected to read. You should also be able to calculate reasonable numbers and percentages without needing the calculator on your phone to know what 20% is; Or what one half of 3/8 is.

      So, the way you have phrased this is blatantly ableist. It’s like you’re saying you hate people who are blind because they refuse to learn to read. You’re annoyed with people who CHOOSE not to learn, and attacking other people who have a disability. Don’t use the technical terms for actual disabilities when that’s not what you are talking about. Your friend isn’t “OCD” because they like when things match.
