No, my point with “functionally” is that it can be killed.

Biological immortality is a very specific concept indicating an absence of aging and the absence of an increase in expected mortality along with age.

I just mean that something can still eat it. This is an easy concept to understand if you’re not focused on correcting people needlessly.

This is what I mean by functionally.

There is a functional difference between being pedantic about the word “functionally” and supplying relevant information.

My comment indicates that the animal can still die, your comment indicates it doesn’t age.

Do you see the meaningless distinction?

No, I meant functionally. As in practically. For all intents and purposes. As in under normal conditions.

It’s like if I said “You meant ‘searching for’ and not ‘looking for’”, when looking indicates visual searching.

In other words it’s a meaningless distinction in the usage and I would look like a real dickhead pedant if I insisted you use another word.

Hey it’s my first thought on hearing that Boeing satellite “exploded for no reason”.

There is a species of jellyfish which is functionally immortal. When they get too old they simply turn into children again and re-age.

Edit: I’m not saying it’s not biologically immortal, I’m saying functionally immortal because I’m indicating that it can still be killed.

Saying something doesn’t experience aging is not the same as insisting it cannot die.

2+2=4 is not less correct because 2x2 also equals 4.

Yes but have you considered how this Coverfield attack will affect the team?

He can drop his lawsuit if he likes, but the countersuit isn’t up to him.

Discovery should be interesting

They don’t aspirate when they run, their organs slosh around and just sort of push their lungs enough to keep them alive.

Horses not breathing while running opened a whole new world of anxiety for me.

The Bourne Identity fight choreographer also based his fights on the fights in the movie.

If you’ve ever seen both movies it’s very obvious.

This movie came out in an era of shooting from the hip action stars, and John Cusack and his Kickboxing Instructor put down one of the best movie fights ever.

Also Dan Akroyd’s “POPCORN!” will never make me not laugh.

Oh no they’re all me

At 60 MPH the Hummer EV has the same kinetic energy as a 1993 Honda Civic Hatchback going 120mph.

It’s like reading. I don’t look at letters and think “that’s an A and that’s a B”.

It’s just “Miata, Civic, Explorer, etc”

Or recognizing people. I just know all these strangers names and faces.

Dog’s old as fuck

I can’t even get my mom to stop believing that her bank would text her asking for her account info.

Some choice lyrics from “If you own the Washington Redskins you’re a cock” by Atom and His Package:

And you’ll go “Wah wah wah, you’re so PC” And I will say “Wait” Remind me again how it came to be That being “the stupid American” is a desirable trait

Wouldn’t it be offensive if we cheered: “Rah rah rah” for the Carolina Negroes With a beatbox cheer and big foam afros? Or if the Minnesota Vikings became the New York Kikes With dollar bills on their helmets cause that’s what they like You know?

“Atom, what about the Saints, Angels, Padres too? Ain’t that the same thing for Christians that’s offending you?”

When there’s a Jesus Christ mascot dog shooting crucifixes Nailed to a cross, dying to save the team You’ll be right, you’ll be right But until then You’re. Not. Right

Tie Fighter and Dark forces were great games, but I always liked Xwing, because I was more accurate when the aiming reticle was locked center screen.
