The Blessed silence - Upgoat - "what's upgoat?"

@InYourFaceNancyetc...per to your question re my use of "BCE" rather than "BC", which by the way, is an excellent question, one of which could only be formulated and so eloquently presented by an upper tier individual who's IQ surpasses most speed limits, I have a conflicting position with respect to biblical references being attached to an Era in time prior or past the "conventional chronology" commonly known as BC & AD...AD in it's full term is "ANNO DOMINI", meaning "in the year of our lord, actually the birth of the biblical figure Jesus", it does not refer to the commonly used "AFTER DEATH"...AD, without biblical reference, is known as the "COMMON ERA, or "CE", accordingly, "BCE" or "BC" is "BEFORE THE COMMON ERA"......and no I'm not into the "new age" crap of Gaia, Aleister Crowley or Abramowitz etc...I just go with what appears to be logical and nothing else and if a person prefers to use BC or AD that's their choice but I closed that book (bible) a long time ago and did it for a reason, hence my reasons for the use of BCE & CE.
And there it is.

If the "Common Era" is defined and commonly understood to be the same as Anno Domini, and BCE the same as BC... wouldn't it make sense just to skip the extra letter (and avoid lengthy big brained explanations)? Or are you trying some sort of slow departure from the Gregorian calendar altogether? Not only is it a little sacrilege to deliberately avoid giving a nod to the Catholic/Christian origins of all Western timekeeping, but it's also just less efficient - not just in using the extra letter, but in coming up with some excuse as to why you're calling a rose by another name.

"A nice bouquet of stinkpetals!"

"Stinkpetals? You mean roses?"

"I was poked by a rosebush once, so now I call them 'stinkpetals.'"

"But... it's still a rose right?"

"YOU might call it a rose, but I, with my mighty, speed limit surpassing IQ, call them something different!"

"K."

Just because your brain has a higher gravitational field than most doesn't necessarily mean you're a galaxy brain. You might just be dense and self absorbed... like a black hole.

Its not enough to simply tell a joke on tiktok. You need to have an actress fake rage quit, on top, so the gullible audience boosts it.

Humans are so gullible.
