[03:53:43] pro tip: original messager can use 🗑️ to remove WB's link [04:40:49] Which is impossible to remember with that name it has [10:15:47] Just type in ```:was``` and it will appear. then the message from the bot WAS there 😉 [10:18:06] not a winner this time- [10:19:34] 😄 [11:29:44] yeah never gonna remmeber that my inclination will always be to search for bin or garbage first because that is what that is... who the fucks calls i wastebasket.. [11:34:06] Americans [11:35:25] Everything has to be precise. like "side walk" [11:38:05] https://www.dictionary.com/e/british-english-vs-american-english/ [11:38:15] Take a look at this [11:38:57] [1/9] French fries/fries (American) vs. chips (British) [11:38:57] [2/9] cotton candy (American) vs. candyfloss (British) [11:38:58] [3/9] apartment (American) vs. flat (British) [11:38:58] [4/9] garbage (American) vs. rubbish (British) [11:38:58] [5/9] cookie (American) vs. biscuit (British) [11:38:59] [6/9] green thumb (American) vs. green fingers (British) [11:38:59] [7/9] parking lot (American) vs. car park (British) [11:38:59] [8/9] pants (American) vs. trousers (British) [11:38:59] [9/9] windshield (American) vs. windscreen (British) [11:57:29] even then, we have a lot of regional varieties [11:57:38] like I've never heard of "wastebasket" [11:57:53] I've always referred to that as a trash can, or something similar [12:21:41] The opening section on the website has more examples for that [12:33:57] I've never heard wastebasket in my life and I watch a lot of American content. :') [12:38:09] At least it isn't worse than learning Vietnamese's tone marks [12:50:04] Or the Chinese ones 😮 [14:28:11] Sometimes I wonder if the only reason wastebasket exists is to match WikiBot's initials. [15:01:15] lol [15:01:39] But, maybe the Wastebasket talk should move to #offtopic [23:06:57] If anyone has any feedback on https://issue-tracker.miraheze.org/T11901#238730 that would be greatly appreciated 😛 (techy people, of course)
