One major lack in most natural languages is scope closers for conditionals or iteration. So it's not at all clear whether an IF governs the next sentence or the next ten.
Now you can get round that with tricks like numbering or indenting the sections, but at that point it's already beyond a layman's ability to understand, let alone write. Congratulations, you've invented another programming language. One that looks like lawyerese.
The Russians have some excellent programmers, but they both work on malware for the mafia.
FTFY.
Of course, most of them don't know it's there...
At least I'd get away from all the Elon Musk stories.
All they care about is power.
Mustaches like that were very popular in the inter-war years. Only fucking idiots associate them particularly with Hitler.
What's that? Hawaii noises? He's banging on them bongos like a chimpanzee.
I'm in the same boat. It's hard to be humble, but I'm doing the best that I can.
One in the slit, one in the shit.
In this context they aren't Asians.
I'm picturing an SAS man with an iPod, and the officer's shouting at him: "Idiot! I told you to bring an MP5!"
Statistically, it's as close as makes any difference.
Big black rock be damned, let's just land there and make the aliens pay for it!
But Musk is disruptive. He's a unicorn.
Shun the non-believer! Shuuun! Shuuun!
Nope. I've never heard Turks or Arabs described as Asian. In England at least it's the superclass of Indians, Pakistanis and Bangladeshis.
It's not the text editor's fault that you can't punctuate.
Define "they". Hollywood as a whole, or individual directors?
Simple fact, a person can only be in one place at one time. You can either be making a movie that takes in X, or one that takes in 50x.
If you think it's that easy, get off your arse and do it,
Perhaps I lack imagination, but I can't see any way at all how that would turn out to be utter shite.
I don't know that. AAAAAAARGH!!!!

Some might. I enter it directly by bit-banging on the RS232 port with a hatpin.
D) Write stories about how naughty the dog is and publish them in the FT.

I don't care what this Vince dude thinks. I want to hear what Bennet Haselton has to say.
Well, one did. Then the major science journals like Newsweek and National Enquirer picked up on it and made a lot of noise about it for a week or so.
He probably meant alumni, but I don't see what's got to do with a much-hyped Bengals running back who did a silly dance.
