Well, the spacebar on my mechanical keyboard isn't working properly so, that's just great I guess.

"Max we just made a pot an hour ago, why is all the coffee gone?"
(Me chugging my 5th cup tonight because night shift) "did you make it weak?"

Trauma brain is funny because it's like "hey, we know you're trying to be productive, but it's been a while since you've had a horrifying flashback so let's do that right now."

@Jazzy_Butts Well, I had to tell someone that they left their dog unattended despite warnings and that being told that's not allowed so it's not the camp's fault their dog was attacked (and killed) by a wolf.

So .... not great.

@Jazzy_Butts Yeah, they're technically sequential in time but have no reason to be linked together. @Mr_NutterButter

@Jazzy_Butts I was trying to think of events that were *chronologically sequential* but made no sense being linked together. @Mr_NutterButter

Working at a campsite is fun because I'm like 90% sure I've seen some strange creatures during the night shifts when I have to fix things.

"Hey, we need you to fix the tower cam"

Okay thanks asshole, let me climb several hundred meters up a fucking tower to change the camera for the weather. Fuck you, that's not horrifying enough in daylight but doing it when its the black of night is so much worse.

@matana I want a tetris mode of this, this is satisfying for some reason.

@Jazzy_Butts
You forgot some important things:

"Then" is almost exclusively used for linking events which happened in direct relation to each other, otherwise it sounds awkward and doesn't make much sense.
Yes: "I left work and then went home."
Not really: "I got pregnant and then had a fever."

"Than" is mostly used things that can be (relatively) *directly* compared.

@beardalaxy homographs are the biggest pain because they're either stressed/unstressed vowels (read/read) or stress accent issues (cóntent vs contént).
@alyx @Mr_NutterButter

@alyx @Mr_NutterButter the english language is full of confusing homos.

homonyms (bank/bank, bark/bark, lie/lie)

homophones (too/to/two, there/their/they're, knot/not)

homographs (read/read, content/content, desert/desert, lead/lead)
