Except drugs, of course.

English in a nutshell. Here is a rule. It always works except in this 300 million examples when not. I hate it.

About 100k. That would mean a downpayment for a house here.

Similar. In stores or wherever in-person a hostess asks for my mail for ads or some dumb subscription, I just start to dictate "spam...yes, spam@[myname].com". Sometimes they believe me and I actually got the spam since I configured a catch-all.

That means nothing to the average Joe. Joe saw a comment mentioning Lemmy under a post on reddit. Got curious, went to join-lemmy.org.

"What the fuck is an instance? - he thinks. I don't care, where are the posts? Okay, a lot of these things seem to be specific domains, maybe they are for specific countries or interests. I don't have any of that. The fuck is federation? I don't fucking care, show me the posts already. Okay, .world is the largest, the name implies it's for everybody. Cool, register. Next, next, fucking finally here are the posts."

That's why.

I use something similar often. "I'm not racist but the color of the bread is white."

Eh, it's easily confused with chicken parme.

When one head is cut off, Hydra's grow back 2. Check out the Hercules animated movie, it's really good and has this scenario.

Edit: Anyone who attempted to behead the Hydra found that as soon as one head was cut off, two more heads would emerge from the fresh wound. https://www.britannica.com/topic/Hydra-Greek-mythology
