comparably pedantic

When two assholes try to out-asshole each other in an Internet bitch fight.

"If your statement was never supposed to be read as anything more than a synonym for 'Russia is not good and not our friend' then sorry for being comparably pedantic, I guess.

Comprable

A phonetic spelling of the word comparable (Pronounced "Com-parable" with the letter "a" being silenced)

Used to describe something as "sufficiently similar" or an "adequate/suitable replacement". This is different to comparable which is broadly used to indicate similarities between things.

Waiter: I'm afraid we don't have any salmon left, would a beef dish be comparable?
Customer: Well, they are comparable in that they are both food, but they aren't comprable as they aren't sufficiently similar like a cod dish.

Comparalyze

The act of measuring yourself against someone else in such a way that you become convinced you’ll never reach the level they’re at–causing you to give up trying altogether.

If you spend all your energy examining the ways in which you're inferior to others, you'll comparalyze yourself. The only person you should compare yourself against is you.

comprable

In Spanish, it means buyable or "may/can be bought". In English, it's a misspelling of the word "comparable", due to the fact that the first "a" is silent in the most common of multiple widely accepted pronunciations. Some people claim it's a fake word that people ironically use to sound smart, but the real irony is that people who make that claim are trying to sound smart when they don't know what they're talking about. It's not a fake word, it's a phonetic misspelling of a real word.

Saying that "comprable" is a fake word is comparable to saying that "diffrence" is a fake word.

Comprable

A fake word people ironically use to sound smart when they should be using the oh so familiar comparable. Also British drawl when pronouncing comparable sounds like comprable but it is not a new word.

Comparable<T>

A Java Interface signifying the client that it can compare two objects which implement this. Essentially, it forces the existence of the compareTo(T otherObj) method -- depicted below. This tells a user it can use this method to compare these two objects. Typically this comparable also allows the proper implementation of an equals(Object other) method, as this would be any case in which compareTo(T otherObj) would return a 0.

public interface Comparable<T> {

public int compareTo(T otherObj);

}
