H2O (American band)
H2O is an American punk rock band formed in New York City in 1995. History Formation and the Epitaph years (1995–2000) While touring as a roadie for Sick of It All, Toby Morse would sometimes sing with the band during encores. In 1995 Morse decided to start his own band and formed H2O in the Lower East Side of Manhattan. The band toured relentlessly through most of 1995 and 1996, opening up for almost every hardcore band that hit the east coast, including an opening slot on a Rancid bill, at the Roseland Ballroom. Another huge show was when the band opened for No Doubt at Tramps (NYC) ...

Admittedly, I am a descriptivist, but not an anarchist. The rules are subject to change, but they most certainly exist.
@WorldEngineer that is more a case of French being unique than English being weird. Also, snooty. See aforementioned remark about sticks so far...

I'm starting to lean more towards the "As long as I understand what you're trying to say when you're not being intentionally vague, we're good" school of thought.

Q: Does Cheer have any effect on TinkerBell?

KtashTinkerbell is not a normal summon, as she doesn't get rid of Donald and Goofy, and sticks around until the end of the fight. The description of cheer is Increases the summons' MP gauge, giving them more time and attacks per battle. Equip to entire party to boost effect. Tinkerbell, however...

@RedRiderX I always thought it was kinda weird that the tradition is "Mr. and Mrs. <Guy's name>". I understand why, but I just never understood who thought that was a good idea.
I mean, did the guy not have a wife?

@Yuki Wives used to be the property of their husbands
 
user20683
thus Mrs. Sean Lowe was a linked legal entity in a very close sense

@WorldEngineer Again, I understand why that's the tradition, but I don't understand the thinking behind whoever thought "wives as property" was a good idea enough to market it to everyone else.

@WorldEngineer I want to bring up "humans as property" but then I realize this was before the whole "slavery is immoral" thing. Which was actually fairly recent in human history, now that I think about it.
And now that I'm thinking about it, I'm sad.

@Yuki Extremely recent and still not universal.

Okay, I know downvotes on questions typically mean "I don't like your question, you're an idiot". Do downvotes on answers mean the same thing?

Certainly not human trafficking given it's lack of the basic infrastructure of that industry (seaports, airports, etc.)

@worldengineer it's just because of the airport.

@Unionhawk Even then, that's for human trafficking arrests. I'm not sure if that's a valid indicator, considering some places (might) have really corrupt police departments.

@unionhawk some googling indicates that this is largely the result of the conflation of prostitution arrests with trafficking arrests.
