Its status as a slur is not determined by the dictionary definition. It's a slur because transgendered people (the target of the term) consider it to be so.
Similarly I think there's a tendency to paint extroverts as being lacking in 'book-smarts'. Of course, anyone who has ever read a Richard Feynman book can tell you that's not the case.
You're right, it's definitely a spectrum. But I guess just generally speaking I find the whole introvert/extrovert dichotomy to be massively overblown.
>I like socializing, hanging out with friends, and going to parties, but they make me feel tired and I need time alone to "recharge" afterward. It's especially draining to meet new people.
This sounds like a Forer statement to me, to be honest. (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Forer_effect) Just about everyone needs time to relax by themselves sometimes. Wanting to be left alone once in a while doesn't make you an introvert.
Noticed that when I use CRTL+click to open tabs from the list the tab counter still decrements even though the number of tabs in the list does not decrease. Now I'm looking at a list of tabs with -3 tabs at the top.
I was in an upscale department store in July and spotted a very nice Prada cap, with a fairly distinctive shape.
In September I went into a Zara near me and spotted a cap that was pretty clearly a facsimile of the Prada piece. I was really impressed at how quickly they had put it together. I assume they started manufacturing it immediately after the runway show.
