I would rather turn Mexico into the next California, than turn California into just a bigger-sized Mexico.

 

Mexico is a country south of the United States, and many US immigrants are Mexicans, yet saying the word "Mexico" and calling something "Mexico" has become derogatory in California, so when and how did that happen?

 

A miser is someone who is infatuated with the past, and is grumpy about the present, (compared to depressive, or someone who is infatuated with the future, and depressed about the present), so when did it come to mean someone who is a cheapskate and stingy over money?

 

Ubisoft was an American company, with the name standing for Uber Software, where Uber means super in online English. The reason it's not named Ubersoft is because Ubisoft flows-off-the-tongue better. When did Ubisoft become a French company? Thank you for your interest.
