Acknowledging the problem is the first step towards fixing it. Staying in compliance with the cookie law, account deletion, and everything else costs us about 25% of our yearly revenue. Income from same area is less than half that. So if I want to bitch about a bunch of European bureaucrats thousands of miles away taxing my ass, that is my American right. That taxation without representation thing is why there is United States of America to begin with.

More likely non technical idiots passed a privacy law or some such that had unintended consequences. Compliance with EU nonsense is why we have that annoying cookies banner that we have to pay money or in order to try to stay in compliance. Some US states are starting the nonsense too. Compliance cost will eventually exceed revenue and then that'll be it. This little annoying thing is only the tip of the iceberg of stupid.

It's not us.

Yup. Ryan Phillippe at 22 in Cruel Intentions.

I've used many sources from a word of the day calendar, to several different dictionaries (like books from my college days), Thesaurus (another book), AI (Both Microsoft Copilot and X Grok), to member suggestions. Several of the recent ones, including this one, came from @Bill W. (He sent me a list of words, which I have been sprinkling in)

The dictionary in question is currently under my stack of backlogged books in my reading pile.
