    Careful, @Perr will be coming for you. :emoji_joy:. But yes that seems like a way to sidetrack the discussion.

    I'm pretty good about spelling. I think you're going to have to appoint a punctuation Nazi to get me. :emoji_joy:

    Just workers. I think the argument being "Turkers" is potentially offensive to Turkish people. Maybe. Idk I gotta be honest my brain can't comprehend things like that very well & I was kinda pulled away from the convo by stuff I actually care about lol. You could call me Scotty McMuffinFatFace and I wouldn't care as long as the $/hr was high enough :dunno:

    I had this problem in an history class I was taking. It was about the Cyprus situation. The Turkish(I think) Cypriots used colored rocks to make a big flag on the mountainside. I didn't really get why this pissed the Greek Cypriots off so much and had to give a big presentation about it. The class was only like 8 people. I caught a fair amount of shit about it before I explained my position of not caring about symbolism, but I think they understood after. :dunno:

    Honestly, you shouldn't even view this as a part time job. You do do studies for fun, right?
