apple-to-orange comparison

The comparison between two (or more) things that cannot be compared apple-to-apple, e.g. comparing the demand of being a kindergartener with that of being a college student — even though they both "only" go to school 3 hours per day
Trying to compare the stress levels of a kindergartener to a college student is just an apple-to-orange comparison—sure, they both "only" go to school 3 hours per day, but the responsibilities are worlds apart!

apple-to-orange

Being the antonym for "apple-to-apple", this term refers to the comparison between two things (or more) that simply don't compare! For example, you were born on Sunday, February 22nd 2004. You aren't going to have ever celebrated your birthday during Ramadan until Sunday, February 22nd 2026. But still, you have always compared with the rapper Quavo who have once celebrated his birthday during Ramadan. And the last time this rapper celebrated his birthday was on Tuesday, April 2nd 2024.
Trying to compare my birthday on February 22nd 2004, with Quavo's Ramadan birthday is just an apple-to-orange situation; they’re worlds apart!

Apple inverted / natural scrolling - I want it to GO AWAY 

I just upgraded to OSX Lion 10.7, I own a normal fucking mouse (Intellimouse), not some "magic-harry-potter" mouse, and I hate invented scrolling - in fact, trouble is that I cannot find a way to change it.

When I go to "System Preferences" - "Mouse" .. there's nothing. When I go to "System Preferences" - "Microsoft Mouse"; guess what? NOT A FUCKING THING.

So gents and ladys, how do I get rid of this piece of shit so I can fucking scroll as I've been doing for the last two decades?

Jesus-fucking-Christ, fuck you, Steve!

Oh, and to you out there, who answers this question: THANK YOU VERY MUCH FOR YOUR KINDNESS!

Back when I lived in upstate new york 

A meaningless, unimpressive, self-serving introduction. An indicator that the story about to be shared will be pointless and dumb.
Back when I lived in upstate new york, I also had to park on the street - on two occasions, we got enough snow, mixed with just the right plowing, that my car was lifted off the ground from so much snow being jammed underneath it.

Sister: This meeting was to discuss the rough draft of my essay, where we discussed the subsidiary questions I added in my rough draft. We also discussed the relationship between my main title and the real-life situations I chose to use in my essay. We discussed the structure of my essay as well, specifically the Math AOK section and how it relates to the contradiction of the title. This second meeting was particularly helpful in discussing the implications of my essay claims and how to apply the title across various areas of knowledge. There were many sections of the essay that could have been cut down in wordiness and the ways of knowing required further and more in-depth analysis.
