Random question: Who is familiar with the term "social" as being short for "social security number"? I've only heard that term used at the credit card company I worked at and by the payroll department of our client. But I think I've been asked for my social when on the phone with some company (I forget what). Is the term "social" common knowledge?

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

I've definitely been asked for my "social" before.

No, I don't think I will - me, quoting Captain Steve Rogers, to all of 2020
Is the term "social" common knowledge?
I've used it quite a bit, both with Variable Annuity Company and here at Human Resources company.

You should know I'm a big deal in the Resistance.

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?
Is the term "social" common knowledge?
I've definitely heard it in various places ("various" = enough that it's not surprising to hear it, few enough that I don't feel like it's replaced the full phrase).

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset
Is the term "social" common knowledge?
I'd say yes. I hear people asked for their "social" as often as "social security number," anyway.

I remember the crazy days. 500 posts an hour. Nubmer! Natgbsb
Allyson, did he trash this stuff without asking? Was it salvagable? And who died and made him king of decorations? Ass.

See? I gave everybody here an opportunity to tell me what a bad person I am and nobody did, because I fuckin' rule.
Allyson, you went and spent time and energy and money on lighting and netting and stuff and this neighbor not only took it down but threw it in the trash instead of returning it to you? Pardon my French, but what a fucking fuckhead. I'm vibing very, very hard for some good housing alternative to pop its head up for you, and soon.
And you should feel free to come up to our place and put up lights and netting any damn time you want, complaint-free. Bold colors welcome.
I mean, sheeeee-it.

And (because it merits a separate and much nicer post of its own), welcome, Shir! Any friend of Nilly's is welcome, with delight!
