I mean, it's pretty commonly said, especially in a colloquial setting. More people than not probably use it.

But there is a convention that the "and" should be adhered to when a decimal is present; that said, – like many grammar rules – this isn't far from universally followed.

See, my problem is that it's never 2 minutes.

I tell myself it is; I truly think it is. A half hour later…

That's kind of the funniest way to not know what it is, though.

Which is galling, in its own right, as it's – by definition – all overtime.

It can also help tenderize the meat (via vinegar or lemon/lime); I tend to find that, when "nondeveloped" countries talk about washing their meat, it means in a vinegar/citrus solution while "developed" countries quite literally mean just plain water.

Usually, the brackets include a part of the sentence that wasn't said but the interviewer believes the speaker meant or was implied.

In cases like this, maybe the speaker was speaking quickly (and, so, didn't say the words during the interview) or were dropping implied parts is the sentence (like we all sometimes do when speaking casually; like if I say, "Quick thinking," to someone. It's implied that I was saying, "[That was] quick thinking").

This also gets used often if the interviewee is talking about someone they know personally but we don't so they're usually just using the first name (e.g. "Yeah; me and [General] Howard [Zimmerman] go way back").

It's not clear from the screenshot but the advertisement used audio directly from his original video; that was his issue.

The origin of the term “op-ed” is derived from the piece originally having appeared on the “opposite side” of the newspaper from the editorial page.

Just noticed that the thread is from last year…

But, considering how much we're still not heeding this fact a year later, perhaps just as well to keep the post up.

Actually, Fury's always been black in the Ultimate Marvel Universe; the character and the design was actually based on Jackson so casting him for the MCU probably was an obvious direction choice.

I also had my boss, when I worked in fast food, list this as one of the issues he had with the movie, when it came out (to quote him, "he's a white character; no offense but that's what he is," which was particularly galling, given the aforementioned fact).

That's absolutely fair; I guess, more so, what I was trying to push against is the implication that eye contact is a necessary component of sharing interactions with people IRL (and, rather, it's perfectly possible to be IRL with others without eye contact), if that distinction makes more sense.
