Possibly got a side job working in a machine shop as an apprentice, im so exited.

tony stark here we come.

what sort of machine shop?

the same reason why newspaper(omg ppl still read them?) articles are written at the reading level of a 7th grader.

americans, on average,have the reading level of a 7th grader.

I think it's because many people associate intense social humiliation with "horror" and then interchange horrified with scared without realizing they're diluting the meaning of the original phrase.'

Edit..I worded that terribly.

Horror and intense social humiliation are frequently interchangeable since horror is almost always a symptom of mortification

Ex. It mortified me to have to admit that I was a virgin

It horrified me to admit that I was a virgin.

I understand that mortified =/ scared. I'm just offering an explanation as to why people might confuse them.

What's the context by the way?

mortified sounds similar to horrified




ofc, it makes sense if you really think about it.


and no way, fuck europe, we have like monster trucks and stuff!
