I moved onto his prayer farm with 45 other members of the Salvation Star Boys, who died in a mass suicide. But not me. 'Cause I don’t like root beer. And I only drink what I like.
After it was all over, I called Lois to pick me up. She was mad. But she’s what Derek calls an Oppressing Doubter.

Dumbledore in the books has my heart, but Dumbledore in the films has my sword
The movies also frames Dumbledore as a hard boiled unhinged detective who slams people against walls and shakes them down for information, whereas the book totally missed out on that great aspect of his personality. Swings and roundabouts

They’ll do that anyway if the gym is successful. You ideally want a gym that’s on the verge of collapsing but not backed by any VC
How very German of you.
I understand your point in the context of “switch on” and “switch off”, but the base verb “work” doesn’t have many separable prefix/suffixes.
