That is correct usage for “so”. So, what does that have to do with the usage as an interjection at the beginning of a sentence? :=)
Black lives Matter. Phrase that is not really serious given number of black abortions and black on black murders which go without protest. Normal people realize all life maters.
Incorrect.
The word so is same as because or it follows.
I wrote this comment,
- so -
that I could correct the authors fallcy.

I believe the author is picking on the word ‘so’ as it is ‘so’ overused, that it’s ‘so’ fricking unbelievable.
It’s like someone going ‘uh’ or ‘like’ as they speak. It’s a verbal stammer.
Don’t be confused — “Cis-gendered” is just a made-up, derogatory term that means “normal”.
Also of significant enjoyment is a short book on pronunciation published decades ago -- "There Is No 'Zoo' in 'Zoology'" by Charles Harrington Ellster -- is guaranteed to make anyone who reads it a PITA to be reckoned with (also available through Amazon, I think).
Tow the line. For Corn’s sake, how would you tow a fricking line?
The list of bastardized nouns is endless. To "impact" is jarring, for instance, and "impactful" is idiotic.
This kind of nonsense comes from bureaucrats who are at once tyrannical and terrified. Some white male university president, if there is one left, would use "decision" as a verb because to say "I decided" smacks of privilege.
To "decision" something blurs the subject AND the action.
No one really knows who made the call, and whatever was "decisioned" is now locked within impenetrable new walls.
Reread my post, your spelling is correct :)
"Filming" instead of "recording video" (Also footage)
"No problem" instead of "you're welcome"
"I got ya" or "gotcha"
Second that
“and almost no one catches it”
I do. Every time.
I don’t usually say anything because I just don’t want the aggravation.
Maybe it’s just regional, but around here people exclaim “perfect” or “good job” when the person they’re talking to hasn’t done anything.
Add “going forward,” “in terms of” to the list.
But when you are cis-gendered, that means you got a "package" or some "junk," and you are just fiiine with that.
Hey, you been talking to my doc while looking at the official Gov’t approved BMI chart? :D :D :D
Seriously, my doc is cool about it and says the chart is total crap (I’m .5 on the chart away from officially being “obese”... he laughs at that)
you forgot “wow, you have SO many children, aren’t you ashamed of taking so many resources from the world JUST to support them?”
am a sugarholic. Cannot be fat shamed but illnesses are kicking my ass.
I keep my junk in the trunk
How about: “I think we can all agree...”
If we could all agree, there wouldn’t be a need to discuss it, so that’s just a way of saying “I’m right so don’t argue with me”.
