I don't pronounce those A sounds any differently, I didn't realize that was your point. Maybe there's a bit of a glide in pan, but both have æ sounds.

Neither happened. The restaurant isn't owned by Disney, it is just listed on their website as a recommended place for allergy free dining, and they while own the property, it isn't a part of the actual park, springs, etc. The family signed up for D+, and therefore "read" the terms, including the arbitration, and then used their D+ account to sign up for the trip, and had to "read" the terms again. The whole D+ argument wasn't that they had to go to arbitration because they used the streaming, it was to show they had to go through the same terms multiple times and should be familiar with them. And basically, this is an issue with the labeling on the website, so would be covered by those rules. Who they really should be going after is the restaurant, if they made the same allergy free claims there. Agreements requiring arbitration are indeed bullshit and should be more limited, but this is proper enforcement of a shitty system, not the batshit insane enforcement it has been memed into.
Laser needs the vowels to change, but there's no reason to change the S.
The S in laser is changed from Lassy to Lazy.
Gift is by far the most commonly used word that is comparable, and it is a very close comparison, it makes sense people would base it off that. I'm a soft g person myself, but the one letter change doesn't hold up very well here. All your examples have an additional letter specifically to change how another letter is pronounced using well established rules. That is not the case here at all.
Ah, I prefer folded like you do, but if I'm in a rush I'll fold like she does. It is definitely easier and faster, doesn't look as nice though.
We should all just go skuh-bah diving with the sharks with lass-ear beams on their heads. Acronyms don't always inherent their original letters' pronunciation, as seen in skoo-buh and lay-zer.
IMHO, there has to be more incentive for the player. That's a thing you can do, in Arkham, but it's a thing you're supposed to do in DMC. There's the combo tracker pushing you, lot's of flashy moves designed to help push the combo, and some moves that aren't as good but exist to look cool while rotating through moves. It's a matter of intent, not just if it is possible.
Yeah, a subgenre emerged with a set of identifiable attributes. Some of those attributes have been dropped from the definition, but there still isn't a better term for a game where you start the run in a generally weak state and quickly power up with only one life (with maybe extras from items) Sure, we could come up with a snappy name for the genre/mechanic, but why when we already have a perfectly serviceable one?
Fairly common in lots of places to shower every other day. So ling as you aren't doing manual labor or working out and making yourself gross, showering every day can actually be detrimental for stripping away too many oils, especially for your hair, but can also cause dry skin. I'm with OP on this one, gotta shower every day in summer, but in cooler months I'm an every other day guy.
Yeah, my understanding is that SOP is to sue everyone even remotely, possibly, responsible, and the courts will work out who is and isn't likely enough to have to actually defend themselves. This is just a part of the dance.
