I usually have a big jar of pickled jicama in the fridge. Great refreshing snack. Just killed my last batch, have to make some more.Quote:

We're perfectly normal. The weirdos are the ones who like IPA.Quote:

It's not amazing, it's no home grown tomato or summer corn, but it sure as hell is more tasty and more versatile than lots of veggies that are more common.Quote:

Tug-uh-vi-loa.

Apparently that’s the right way according to wikiQuote:

But wiki doesn’t even try at his first name
Tuanigamanuolepola
We all agreed to just say Tua
I’m thinking tua onomatopoeia
Why is Favre pronounced Farve?
Why is Erdogan pronounced Erdowan?
Why do people insist on accenting the first syllable of Ukraine?
Ok thanks for clearing this up.
Yeah that fella’s in a bit of trouble I hear.Quote:

Who will admit to not knowing how to drive a stick?
I taught my husband how to drive a stick shift no joke. When we were first dating he got a job as a bellman/valet but did not know how to drive a manualQuote:

And why does it not have a shortcut either?
Am I just doing it wrong, is there an easier way? Or are lawyers the only ones who use it, and we're such a small subset that it deserves to be way more hidden than, for ex, the greek letter beta?
Lawyers use it. But only when in edit mode.
It is helpful for proper formatting. Seeing tabs, spaces, carriage returns (insert flashback DING! Hunter Thompson) is useful.
Who the fuck inserts a paragraph symbol for final print?
In the past you have claimed to be a lawyer (or at least having gone to law school, can't recall if you asserted that you practiced), either that was a lie or you are an absolutely abysmal one (no joke, not like the guys who decide someone's a bad lawyer because they post something stupid). Because there is not a lawyer alive who doesn't understand why you might use the paragraph symbol in documents.Quote:

I often used the silcrow whilst at Skadden Arps Slate Meagher and Flom.
I cannot recall using the Pilcrow. But I wasn’t a litigator. So ymmv.
Danno, similar to Abraham's approach. Look into Word for a function that I think was called easy text (it's been a long time).
Many years ago, our Audit team used this. I remember codes and then F2 (or similar). You could have this created and shared amongst a team for creating report writing templates (in our case).
B101,F2 might produce and entire paragraph on unprotected passwords.
I'd think something like this could be used for the simple paragraph symbol up to larger, commonly used text.
