     @jessew Not as bad as people describing modern games as "roguelike"

     @jessew I'd just like to interject for a moment. What you're referring to as carriage, is in fact, horse/carriage, or as I've recently taken to calling it, horse plus carriage.

     @jessew I would rather expect Unix introduction saying 'Linux-like' ;D

     #Voidlinux introduces itself as 'based on the Linux Monolithic Kernel', as if people know what kernels are, and understand monolithic vs micro, but just needed an introduction to Linux in particular.
