What is your most lukewarm take?

Not at all. I was open to the possibility that they didn't mean that, but I wrote my response under the assumption that it was their position.
That was essentially my way of saying, if this isn't what you meant, let me know.
Seems a lot more expedient to say "if this isn't what you meant, let me know".
No need for multiple paragraphs of pedantry about language on an AskLemmy post inquiring about people's opinions.

My girlfriend prefers her water room temp, and as someone who loves ice cold water, it's so weird to me. So I think I'm gonna start thinking of this as her lukewarm take.
Your girlfriend scares me quite a bit!!

A great realization that I had was that many of my language pet peeves were really preferences and not hard and fast rules. Language constantly evolves, regardless of how any one person feels. Clinging to my pet peeves was really just a form of elitism.
Grammar is descriptive, not prescriptive. <- The fancy way to say what you said.

Still not my intent there, but maybe you just don't get my tone. No worries.

Ahh, blame the other person for your poor communication. That says a lot about you.

Something that's not super controversial, but you still really stand by it.
I am convinced beyond contestation that carpeting a bathroom is an exceptionally stupid thing to do.

I am also a woman of room temp water preference, I'm glad to know there is hope for me in finding a boyfriend

To each their own, I think a good parmesan is my favorite, but blue cheese is pretty up there

Pizza is one of the best food forms we've ever come up with. I don't even care if you use wildly nontraditional toppings, like a chicken vindaloo pizza or a chili dog pizza. Just put the shit you wanna eat on a giant dough, cook it, then cut it up and eat it. Genius.
I once made a seafood and butter sauce pizza for a highschool gf. Hated it myself but she still talked about it years after we spit. Pizza and Sandwiches are the peak of human civilization

From a technical standpoint and a legal one, piracy is copyright infringement, not theft. It's a similar behavior but fundamentally different altogether at its core, largely because the victim of piracy does not lose anything tangible, only a perceived opportunity of a sale (which can be argued as not having been an opportunity in the first place depending on who is performing the piracy).
Both are bad, but people calling piracy theft have a terrible misunderstanding about it.
Studies consistently show that piracy increases sales.

The assignment was "not super controversial, but I still really stand by it."
My bathroom was carpeted. By my direct ancestors. They built the rest of the world I live in, too.

Any home that doesn’t have central air conditioning should at least have a dedicated circuit outlet by each window. It’s like home designers are trying to make people sweat.

Edit: So no, people convicted of heinous things aren't always made an exception. And, yes, that's cause.
Back in the day, anyone could become a slave, and depending on setting anything could be done to a slave. That's because human rights weren't really a thing yet.
