Well you just gave us number 34. There is a difference between Fleshing something out and Flushing something out, and as of recent times people from a certain country seem incapable of getting this right (just like "could care less").

"Flush" can mean to make square or more solid, as well. So to "Flush to an even 50" would make sense.

And "could care less" also works, because it can be a comment made sarcastically, like "I could care less if you agree with this post."

You're missing the point, the phrase is "to flesh out an idea" not to "flush out" an idea. And the second point, I should have added "when you are trying to convey the opposite emotion, that you do not care at all" - sure it's grammatically correct but it means the opposite from what the user intends to say. This demonstrates it nicely:

Spiders are faster and more intelligent than your average zombie.

But s/he wasn't talking about the idea itself. S/he was was talking about the quantity of them, hence the number 50.

I'm not saying it's a word choice I'd use, but for you to lump it in with some amazingly idiotic things other people have said is kind of extreme, especially when it at least semi-works.

As far as meaning the opposite of what one says, I did say "sarcastic," right?

Typo, sorry I was on my phone when I wrote that one.

No he's right, I meant to say flesh. I don't blame him though, autism is a curse many of us are destined to bare.











Sorry for any reposts.

4 out of 5 of those aren't spiders though. They're Nerubians and don't look like spiders at all. The final one is a spider which I had to kill so many times for the tanking trinket. Also, a number of gaming spiders are weird for me in that they either need to look even creepier than a spider (like those from GW2 with their giant abdomens and weird proportions), or just trigger it less pronounced to not at all. Hadronox is one of those. It's pretty weird. I haven't looked deeper into it for obvious reasons, but I think my biggest issue is either seeing real spiders move (whether on video or in a gif), or seeing spider eyes and fangs. There's just something about those eyes and/or fangs that makes it so creepy for me. but it's kinda silly to ask you to link some spider images and allow embeds of others based on some obscure criteria which might not even apply to the remainder of the 20% arachnophobes.

Also, BlueObelisk, even if 75% of those views are made by 20% of the total viewer count, that doesn't matter for the math, because that 20% has the same proportion of arachnophobes. while it might be true that you get less arachnophobes in absolute numbers, the proportion is still the same. whether it's 8.5M unique views or 85,000 viewers having 100 views each, you still have about 20% who are arachnophobes.

here, have a twerking turkey Miley Cyrus for reading that WoT.

20% arachnophobes.

Arachnophobia affects 3.5 to 6.1 percent of the population. Source.

Where is your source for this mysterious 20%?
