I'll admit now that I had never seen that word before today.

I'm still trying to figure it out, and coming up blank.

Being a Hawaiʻi-ite, I knew about the lava angle. But did figure there was more to it.

Anything related to being/getting "owned", as in "Man gets OWNED by police during traffic stop".

"If you’re a leader, you lead the way. Not just on the easy ones; you take the tough ones too…” – MAJ Richard D. Winters (1918-2011), E Company, 2nd Battalion, 506th Parachute Infantry Regiment, 101st Airborne

"Woe to those who call evil good, and good evil... Therefore, as tongues of fire lick up straw and as dry grass sinks down in the flames, so their roots will decay and their flowers blow away like dust; for they have rejected the law of the Lord Almighty and spurned the word of the Holy One of Israel." - Isaiah 5:20,24

For a while people were adding patterns of characters like this:

~~^~~^~`````Subject`````~~~^~~^~~

or something like that. Glad that's done.

Corona, Coronavirus. Wuhan. Woohoo flu. Any variety of this current Pandemic shit. Enough already. 16 threads on the 1st page of the Lounge directly related to it.

If you're goin' through hell, keep on going.
Don't slow down. If you're scared don't show it.

Couldn't agree more!

We could turn our “corrector clan” into lonely Maytag repairmen just by never using the same word twice or repeating what someone else said. I’m just saying.

“School” used as a verb. Unless you’re talking about a location to teach, or a group of fish, use “teach.”

“School me on silencers.”

I was going to agree with you, but on a whim I opened the dictionary app, and there it is, "school" as a verb:

quote:
verb

1 he was born in Paris and schooled in Lyon: educate, teach, instruct.

2 he schooled her in horsemanship: train, teach, tutor, coach, instruct, drill, discipline, direct, guide, prepare, groom; prime, verse.

Even though the dictionary shows it as a verb, it still grates on the ear.
