Something like that. You generally don't see more local stuff used for very long after leaving the position unless the person in question held it for a long time. One time sheriff or whatev' probably won't be called the title afterwards, one that had held the position for thirty or forty years is fairly likely to, if only among the people of the area they presided over, as an example.

Far as I'm aware, though, there's just not a consistent rule for (most of) it. Mostly just a function of notability, if anything, and quite possibly setting (region, venue, etc., etc.) to some extent.

Basically, if you're actually looking for something particularly coherent and regular, you're looking at the wrong country.

That feeling when you finally get around looking up what a rather nice song was about and are enlightened to the fact that "cocaine" is the answer.

Had figured a while back it was something about drugs, but... still. Yet another part of the playlist confirmed as something I probably should turn the sound down for when driving through school zones.

E: Though in retrospect, it's at least more subtle than the one with the four whores having a conversation about which of them is the loosest. That one got a hell of an expression out of my parent when I played it for 'em. Surprisingly excellent song, hell of a subject :V

E2: Gavin Friday's rendition of Baltimore Whores, if anyone was curious, by the by. Won't link due to content, but it's quite possibly one of the best constructed pieces of music of its type that I've ever heard. The singer's about as close to perfect as I could imagine, the instrumental accompaniment is spot on, the lyrics themselves are disturbingly well put together. A+ material, it's just about gratuitously promiscuous prostitution.

... I have to ask, though, out of morbid curiosity. What kind of junker are you on that can't run Dom 4? Or is it access or whathaveyou instead of specs?

It could be, or it could be comrade's take on it. Or something else entirely. The biggest mistake you can make in regards to evolutionary biology is to assume something came about for a reason, or that it came about because of the reason(s) that make(s) sense. _{this is also why most of the field, along with its friend evolutionary psychology, is complete and utter just-so bullshit}

Though I guess the actual explanation is that our predecessors with larger jaws managed to breed more. Whether that's because of the jaws themselves or because the jaws were piggybacking on something else or because the jaws were just not meaningfully selected against and got lucky or about a half dozen other things or some combination of any and/or all of the above is something it would take a time machine and another fifty to a hundred years or more of genetics research to actually figure out with any degree of notable accuracy.

College classes would hammer that point in even harder, if they're a class worth taking, since something like half the point of the things are teaching you how to communicate in the field you're dealing with, be it work, academia, or general use. Which means using letters and whatnot other people will understand, heh.

And they're equally unacceptable, is most of the point

Still, yeah, if it can get a chuckle and the teachers are okay with using it occasionally, it'd probably be alright to use to that extent. Just... don't internalize it as something you normally do. You really, really shouldn't.

... well, you're welcome to try, but don't expect anyone to know what it is, and expect to be marked points off for spelling if you use it in anything graded :V

Cooee. Shame it looks like there's not very many adept crossbreeders in the game. Half are pretender chassis, heh.

E: Note to self: When wanting to play around with crossbreeding on a small map, don't claim the throne of the pantokrator. The poor AI's dominion can't take that.
