For me I say that a truck with a cab longer than its bed is not a truck, but an SUV with an overgrown bumper.

    It’s “different from”.

    “Similar to”; “different from”; “less/greater than”. “Different than” doesn’t make sense.

      I will speak of the dead how they were, not how I wish they were.

      It devalues people that lived empathetic, caring lives to play pretend some greedy/malicious/antisocial pos was a “great guy.”

      Don’t speak ill of the dead? It’s nonsensical. There is no God, but judgment still should come for a person, by the people whose lives they touched for better or worse, and it helps no one to pretend everyone who died was awesome.

      Maybe if the world called a notorious POS a notorious POS when they died and tossed their corpse into a dumpster, it would, I don’t know, show the living that how they live will decide how and if they’re remembered.
