I’ll live to my late seventies or early eighties, lose my prostate at around 52 after a cancer diagnosis, and die of complications from type II diabetes or heart disease (the heart disease is from being a fatass).

Hey Sharon, does this salad taste like batteries to you?

The shot/countershot and dialogue timing are close to exactly as original. The actual dialogue has been altered by AI

The dialogue, and those massive breasts

Neat! I’m gonna come back to this once I’ve finished work. I was using the OED definitions and understanding:

Ethics – Rules of conduct in a particular culture or group recognised by an external source or social system. For example, a medical code of ethics that medical professionals must follow.

Morals – Principles or habits relating to right or wrong conduct, based on an individual’s own compass of right and wrong.

But this idea of an Aristotelian understanding of ethics vs morals is fascinating. Thank you for the link :-D

Also it is not obvious from your original comment that English is a secondary language for you <3 French is on my bucket list, but I want to learn basic German first. Both for etymological reasons primarily

I’m gonna be a pedant here. I understand (I think) what you’re trying to express and differentiate. It’s just the words aren’t perfectly accurate.

“Personal” ethics are morals. Ethics are community based standards or principles, morals are personal standards. Some people equate morals to religious guidelines or principles, but morals don’t have to be religious (nor do distinctions of good and evil, right and wrong). Personal understanding of what is right or wrong is a moral standing. It is possible to have morals (personal belief) based on ethics (community standard), but they are still morals.

IMO, anyway.

Morals can be principally driven, and often are even in people that don’t understand the principle that underlies an ethical standard. For instance, a conscientious objector might still defend themselves or others from personal violence. In this case the underlying principle is one of, say, political neutrality, or perhaps political opposition, not pacifism. And yet the person themselves might not be able to put into words why is okay to use violence one on one, but not militarily. I’m rambling

New word! Thank you.

The same way I feel about Nebuchadnezzar saying he was the greatest and most accomplished (Daniel 4:28-30). The same way I feel about Herod Agrippa I accepting adoration intended for God (Acts 12:21-23). Jesus said lots of people would say they were the Christ (Matthew 24:4,5). It’s not surprising, it is shameful, and the Creator of all things will resolve it in their own time and way.

My only worry is that I try to live my life by the instruction and guidance I find from the Creator. For me a lot of that is in the Bible. It’s a personal decision, and a personal devotion. I don’t expect anyone else to abide by these understandings, and I work really hard not to judge others for their personal decisions. This takes work because it’s not how I was raised, but it is what I’ve learned from the Bible (Matthew 7:1).

The only moral decisions I need concern myself with are my own. I didn’t always succeed in that endeavor. It’s a work in progress.

Lol i feel ya

*pedant

Oh yeah, dropping the 님 makes total sense, I just didn’t know if there was another word used besides “선생” for teacher in a general sense.

Don’t worry about your English, it’s better than mine and I’m a native speaker and occasional pedant. Your comment absolutely makes sense.

That can be the challenge with Chief as well, it’s often said in a masculine context. Boss and Captain don’t have the same challenges (although penal culture can affect when Boss is appropriate to use)

Hat tipping intensifies

Could… could it be summed up… like considering cultural context, including historical respect for certain vocations, and Confucian influences in earlier centuries, as a word like, I don’t know, Teacher?

I kid I kid, i get what you’re saying, but teacher is generally accepted as the English translation for 선생님 to the best of my knowledge. Granted, I haven’t studied the language for almost 20 years but I think that’s still the case, yes?

Also, and genuinely curious here, what is used for “teacher” in a school setting? Like I can see a little kid saying 제 선생님은 재미있서 because of how 선생님 is used. But if a teenager said their teacher sucks what word would they use?
