Apparently

General


Let's declare things about each other ~ or about the world ~ but slip the word "apparently" into the sentence so that we can distance ourselves from what we claim if necessary. Feel free to use words like "Seems" and "Seamingly" and "Presumably" etc. instead of "Apparently".

"Seamingly" is seemingly "Seemingly"-- apparently.

HandyAndy, who presumably wouldn't recognize a linguistic jape even if he found one in his cacks, apparently doesn't realize that it was a deliberate error included in order to trap him into predictably making exactly this correction.


Vivify, who dislikes the lyrics of certain kinds of rap music, presumably hates all black culture and all black people. Who knows if vivify would lie about supporting the repatriation of black people to Aftica?

Apparently, Hakima conflates the issue of parenting with the issue of how weasel words affect discourse.


Apparently, Hakima needs to sober up 😂

Notice how Hakima makes this claim ~ about what she believes she needs ~ without corroboration.

I would hazard a guess that Trev enjoys access to the young L.American ladies even more than the white powder.

Apparently some people don't know how to use their thumbs correctly.

I think that the idea is quite well perceived, and even if I would not think so I can't think of any good reason to thumb it down...

neilarini and Relentless Red apparently believe that anonymous thumbs down are a sign of integrity and wisdom. Apparently, people who voice their disapproval are cowardly as are, er... the people who are being thumbed down anonymously. That's right. That's how it is, apparently

Or both equally?
