    Holy fucking shit. I almost was exposed to a swear word on the Internet by some asshole cunt. That bitch didn’t know it’s fucking illegal to swear on the Internet. Thank fucking god someone put a box over it so it’s only heavily implied making me entirely safe from the scary-as-fuck word and distracted me from the area by circling the punchline that I would have never seen without it. I was about to shit a brick.

    fuck

              The system utility fsck is a tool for checking the consistency of a file system in Unix and Unix-like operating systems, such as Linux, macOS, and FreeBSD. The equivalent programs on MS-DOS and Microsoft Windows are CHKDSK, SFC, and SCANDISK.

              https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fsck

              I think it’s kind of like saying “check yourself”

    See, I’m a chemist, but I also believe in the power and importance of organized labor, so I still read that as unionized.

    Plus, I think most chemists would say “neutral” or use protonated/deprotonated rather than un-ionized

      Also un-ionized as a hyphen (which you used when writing it) and unionized doesn’t. Which is probably why you, and most chemists, would read it as unionized as well.

        It does get legitimately used both ways. In a chemistry textbook, seeing it written as “unionized” is pretty common, and wiktionary says that the hyphenated form is predominantly used in contexts where it might be confused with “having a union” (which matches with my experience).

        However, I still assert that it’s just not a word chemists use that much as there are other, less ambiguous synonyms available.

        It just sounds weird

        Still technically correct, but weird.

        Reminds me of how foreign spies were caught during the cold war because they couldn’t pronounce certain words or formulate sentences with words in a customary order

          My favorite was how German spies in WW2 were easily caught because they’d just show up in beachside towns out of nowhere (right off the u-boat) in suits and carrying briefcases stuffed with cash.

          Yes comrade, clearly any pure blooded, land of freedom American, would know that un-ionized is not correct. It is instead union-ized… which is what happens when you cut onions.
