I like words. I like music. I play the piano, and that's the source of my username; I have the usual number of fingers, but sometimes I seem to be in control of only a few of them at a time, so for me maybe this is too many.
Can anything compare to asking what similes are like?
Toward a "Rationalization of Informal Units of Measurement" campaign:
Easy peasy lemon squeezy < Medium peasy pomegranate squeezy < Hard peasy coconut squeezy.
Big-ass load of bricks > Medium-ass load of bricks > Small-ass load of bricks > Big ass-load of bricks > Medium ass-load of bricks > Small ass-load of bricks > Big assload of bricks > Medium assload of bricks > Small assload of bricks.
(The hyphen functions more or less like a decimal point, but is moved in the opposite direction, and generally only once, or perhaps twice depending on the unit. However, some inconsistencies arise; a big-ass hat, a big ass-hat, and a big asshat turn out to refer to at least four unrelated scales of measurement, and the hyphen can be an ambiguous sign.)
