You have The Architect syndrome.Saying long words because you think they're smarter.

Something does not 'get' perpetually amusing. It stays perpetually amusing. "This gets increasingly amusing" or "This is perpetually amusing" are both acceptable

Here's the funny part:
It's good to see you back, Strangelove. 🙂

No, but I thought you were referring to the difference of "Perpetually" and "Amusing".
"This gets" and "This is getting" can both apply to my current sentence structure, being the leftover "Perpetually Amusing".
You should be asking yourself whether this:

Is grammatically correct, my friend.
Originally posted by Seraphim XIIII'm not talking about the sentence structure. The words simply do not agree. "Gets" or "is getting" imply that something is moving, or changing. "Perpetually" implies the exact opposite.

Seraphim, if you have to consciously choose the words you are saying and they aren't just coming naturally, then you are trying too hard.Choosing to say "Perpetually" over "Continually" suggests that.

Actually, I don't find it all that difficult to choose one word over the other.
You may, but not me. It all depends on a specific opinion, really.
Good try, though.

Bit odd. I say "If you're choosing words consciously it means you're trying too hard.", and you reply with "I don't find it difficult to choose one word over the other.".
Who said difficulty? Easy or difficult, you're making the conscious choice to use one word over the other because you claim it "looks" better. So yes, you're trying hard.
You aren't using it out of context, whoever said that was wrong, but the fact that you use a word because it "looks" better more or less proves my point.

Don't apply that to what you said, AC. You're misinterpreting. I'm not denying I chose words consciously. Anyone chooses their words when typing. Sorry to point this out, AC, but this includes you.

So yes, you're trying hard.
That speaks for itself. Moving on.

Wrong. I use perpetual because I think it looks better than continuously. This doesn't mean I'm trying hard and it sure as hell doesn't prove your point. There is barely any effort into replacing one word for another.
It effectively proves you wrong, really.
