Music to my ear and I wonder how much it costed them to comb through all of that.
Fun fact, costed is a word but has a slightly different meaning than the way you have used it.
Costed means to get the details on the cost of something complex. Like “I costed the three projects and the last one is cheapest”
You tried to use it as the past tense of cost, but the past tense of cost is also just cost.
I like OPs version better and chose to evolve the language that way.
If only a very small handful of people make the same mistake, it doesn’t evolve the language, it’s just a mistake, plain and simple.
I know you’re just trying to make yourself feel a wee bit morally superior by saying that, but it’s the complete opposite of how language evolution works
It’s not a mistake if I can understand the message.
It’s still a mistake, no matter whether yo cn undrstnd th sntnce
I love free English classes…
Learning is great, especially when it costed nothing!
Free education? Hell yeah brother!
Fun fact, ‘cost’ is a regular verb in Canadian English. Infering from the lemmy.ca instance, the comment op might be a Canadian, which means the usage of ‘costed’ is correct.
I am Canadian, and I was taught Cost as past tense in school and university. I’ve never seen it written Costed for past tense in any government publication either.
As a straight guy, I have just walked into the wrong bathroom or chaises a kid into the wrong bathroom more times than I want to admit.

People should keep submitting fake reports, and make them somewhat plausible. Just so they don’t get instantly discarded and can actually tie up more resources by actually getting investigated.
But like, how would they even investigate them? That’s the part I don’t understand. Whoever was peeing in there, they’re gone by the time the cops show up. It doesn’t take that long to pee.
Republicans show up and taste the toilet seat. They claim they can tell the difference.
I love/hate how I can’t tell anymore if comments like this is sarcasm or real.
It’s real. They can taste the difference.
I’d rather my Tax Dollars go to THAT instead of feeding Starving American Children!
