@MattMerk obviously, it's rude to ask someone about their bank account. Not sure what you're getting out of this.

@The_Whore_of_Blahbylon the TV series sequel "the Sarah Connor Chronicles" isn't bad either.
@narain @gregeganSF good job. I was really hoping for a rare variety of bug or a hidden message, though.
@gregeganSF ... or it's a secret message to be decoded by the chosen ones.
@gregeganSF I got it, it's (callnative, taed L9LS, alterken) -> (called L9LS, taken, alternative)
@gregeganSF still doesn't make much sense, though.
@gregeganSF curious, they need to rotate suffixes: (callnative, taed, alterken) -> (called, taken, alternative).
I'm still puzzled that the phrase "I was today years old when ..." makes sense to people. Let's see what we have:
- <today> is a placeholder for the person's age;
- the grammar is wrong unless we view "today" as some sort of placeholder, making the expression funny;
- this is to hide the embarrassment of just having learned something important that they wish they had learned earlier;
- there's nothing wrong in learning something late, making it hard for me to read to whole sentence other than literally: either you think it's cool to mock the lack of knowledge and want to pass for someone who knows a lot already, or you're humble about what you know and you're ignoring grammar completely which is weird for someone who reads.

@passenger oui mais les Français aiment bien leurs intellos en général.
@passenger fwiw "nerd bullying" is almost unheard of in France. In fact, there's no word or slur that matches "nerd" in meaning and breadth of usage.
Oh wow! The FTC just banned non-compete clauses in contracts and voided any existing ones. Super good news!!

@antwhat ah oui, en effet. Bonne chance alors !
