LANGUAGE the grammatical arrangement of words in a sentence: The examples should always illustrate correct syntax. The politician's tortured syntax was often satirized. COMPUTING the structure of statements or elements in a computer language: This syntax limits the search to records harvested from the organization's own server. The web references for all our web services use the same syntax.

“The syntax was harsh like a brick to the face, more brilliant than beautiful, she wasn't going to be treated like an inconvenience or an afterthought. Mr single slice microwave pizza, though being rude and cruel was funny. Nevermind the syntax he had no concept of tone, couldn't land a joke with a guidance system. It sounded like she was in for a spanking and not the sexy kind. She got hit on every time she went outside, shouting or berating wasn't in the equation”

“Her handle was DDT after an insecticide that was successfully banned after research that lead to a scientific consensus. Thinning the eggshells of peregrine falcons crushing them, leading to a foreseeable extinction. It was banned in time for the species to make a full recovery.

At the end of every day, no you are the same, I saw the most beautiful sunset of my life. Truly breathtaking, rather than, let me breathe and enjoy it, my date? Honestly, I can't tell if it was a date. Awkward isn't the word. The man drove raged, whined, pissed and moaned about anything and everything that was going wrong prattled off facts insisting he wouldn't repeat them. Cool! I didn't ask for them. Raged at me that "my job" was to be 'this or that' never changing tone still plainly decrying rage, he said " YOU'RE DOING FINE, BY THE WAY" I can't stress enough how I don't work for him. While on the mountainside a sweet old couple cuddled up on a blanket, like normal people, had me take a picture, said I did amazing. I wandered around by myself taking in the beauty ALONE. The man who decided he'd done too much wasn't romantic in the least. I found him seated in the car still clearly freaking out. Snapped at me that i was able to find the jacket in his trunk. He then drove on a tour, I didn't ask for and complained about having to speak and tell me about the things he was showing me. Don't want to? DON'T. Raged when I asked questions. Shut me down if I mentioned anything at all. Raged at me for thinking "I know everything" because I listened to podcasts. I want to see and do the things i've heard about,enjoy them in good company. I don't want to do them with someone who doesn't even like me and can't be bothered with common decency.

An actual kid would get kicked out of kindergarten”

To treat someone with kid gloves is to approach them as you would a child due to hyper sensitivity or a lack of comprehension Literal kid gloves are gloves made from kid leather, the skin from a young goat or lambskin.

“Fancied himself a delicate prince, spoiled and half daft, couldn't catch a drift if a riptide hit him. She treated him with kid gloves while he had tantrums like a real ass kid.

The less a person knows about a thing, the more they believe they know. While in that state they estimate that difficult tasks are much easier than they actually are. The more they learn the more they know they don't know and the more accurate their gauge of difficulty

Bait-and-switch is a form of fraud used in retail sales but also employed in other contexts. First, the merchant "baits" the customer by advertising a product or service at a low price; then when the customer goes to purchase the item, they discover that it is unavailable, and the merchant pressures them instead to purchase a similar but more expensive product ("switching"). Applicable outside of retail spaces by unscrupulous men
