Star Trek TOS is the best series and always will be.

There are no bad pizza toppings, and any pizza with only cheese and sauce is a wasted opportunity.

"catsup" is the better spelling; "ketchup" looks about as proper as "nite lite"

Punctuation goes inside quotes at the end of a sentence unless the quote has its own non-period punctuation. I call this out on every paper I grade.

Code indentation should never use tabs, only spaces.

I don’t understand why this is such a big deal for anyone. With all the UI utilities available it would be incredibly easy to have a setting to interpret 5 consecutive spaces as a tab or a tab as 5 consecutive spaces and just let whoever prefers what to choose how they are going to interface with the code. Hell, you could even make it so 5 is the default and have custom consecutive values as an advanced option in the interpreter for edge cases. So many incredibly more challenging issues have been resolved in IDEs, I just don’t get it.

No year zero. Meaning: year 2000 is in the 20th c. and year 2100 is in the 21st c.

M:I-3, 4, 5, and 6 are excellent movies. Each in their own right. I know, Tom Cruise. But, plug and play any action star, and these are still great movies. He just happened to land the role of Ethan Hunt back in '96.

Tom Cruise. But, plug

Ohhh, okay. I see how it is.
