Christianese. It's a real language used by people who don't know "hello." :lol2:

Or they do, but they just like how spiritual they sound when they replace it with a bunch of meaningless religious babble.

Sounding spiritual just results in me wondering if they're crazy so it doesn't really work. Christianese is its own form of lying.

On another note, I thought Christianese means Christian termology + Japanese... apparently, I assumed that -nese means Japanese.

I would call it more of a misrepresentation than a lie, but I digress. Po-tay-to, po-tah-to.

That remains to be seen.

Limbo hell includes reworking the entire history of my nation to not include canon from the region.

Unrelatedly, there's nothing wrong with arranged marriage but if done wrong it can make friendships extremely awkward.

I suppose it depends what exactly you mean by arranged. If mom and dad find you your spouse, that's weird to me, but fine. If it involves anyone marrying someone they don't wish to marry, we've got a problem.

It's going to be so very weird and awkward if that guy/girl you ran into during your commute and got into a bickering quarrel... is actually going to be your spouse.
