I think she meant that you should ignore them when inside a single or double quoted string.

I meant when you're parsing, respect quotes and escapes such that you don't interpret colons that appear inside strings and char literals incorrectly.
I figured you probably already did, but I was more just ribbing you.

The tears are extra salty.Quote: Lonely nation: 2 in 3 Americans feel more alone than ever before, many admit to crying for first time in years [^]
While I was a weeper in my twenties ... well, histrionics were tres chic in the '60's ... I seemed to have gone dry after that.
Sixteen years ago, in the most intense part of radiation/chemo, I was at home, and, as a thunderstorm came up, I felt a catharsis coming on ... at last, I thought, i'll have a good cry, and feel a lot better ... just as I teetered on the edge of pathos, a Thai talking lizard (tookay) bellowed his nocturnal mating call [^] which can, and did, sound a lot like "fcuk you"
So, I just crawled back to my neuroses, unpurged, reminding myself that "those whom the gods would destroy, they first drive mad."

Glad you pulled through 16 years ago.
And that tookay looks like a komodo that's no longer a juvenile!
EDIT: The second last link is a tokay, a type of gecko. I was referring to the last link!

Bill's post mentions 2/3 while yours has 31% always/often/some of the time for the US, so which is it?
The Netherlands is at the bottom of the graph
But then of course I'm in the wrong statistic, so it doesn't really matter

I have noticed as I have gotten older I have become a bit of a softy. I don't think it has anything to do with COVID. I think it is more that I appreciate people and events at a deeper level than I did when I was younger. I think I live deeper too.
But then again that might just be alcohol talking.

Perhaps there's a pendulum-swing effect where the histrionic ripens into ... on the outer levels ... less emotional display ? While the habitually less effusive ripen into more outer lability, more expressiveness ?
I think we need to distinguish sentiment from empathy, and, for any given individual, there are such complex factors that shape temperament, generalizations are weak.
imho, any way we get to compassion is a blessing.

Definitely the case for me. I bought a copy of the movie Up[^] a few months back. It's become one of my favorite movies, and there are a couple spots where I tear up, even after 4 or 5 viewings.
I'm a sentimental sod, and have definite issues about parenting, fatherhood and children. Up hits all those buttons.
