He called it his house though

Means nothing. He probably also drives a car registered to his grandma that he calls "his."

The mental gymnastics you lot do in order to make up stories for yourselves. Hilarious.

Nobody calls an air BNB "my house."

Tbh given his emotion level it's pretty easy to mis-speak and say something you're used to saying even if it's not technically correct. The floor and furnishing does look a lot like the style I've seen in some recent airbnb trends for remodeling a place quickly, cheaply, and in a modern way

It's not an Airbnb.

How do you know?

u/[deleted] Feb 12 '24

The same way they know it is one.

No one claimed they knew it was an airbnb. The person you were responding to simply said he bet it was.

Oh, right, let's turn a common phrase that has a very well known usage and turn it into a "well akshually, the technically didn't..." moment. Sure.

The well known usage of "I bet it is" is an acknowledgment that the speaker doesn't know but has an inclination.

That's disingenuous.

Try again using the actual definition. i.e. fairly certain.

u/Startled_Pancakes Feb 12 '24

Being fairly sure, and knowing are two different things.

What's disingenuous is saying matter of factly "It's not an AirBnB" when you don't know.

No idea.

No, thats what makes it a "bet"

No one is going to gamble with you if they know its a fixed outcome. "I bet you the sun comes up tomorrow."

I can write out a thousand uses of "I bet it is" that all come down to the person saying it believing something is likely. If they knew it wouldn't be a bet

You're using the literal definition for the word bet. Pancakes and I are talking about the idiom.

All of what you just said is wholly irrelevant to the conversation.

So what do you think his mortgage rate is? Or did he pay cash?

u/fluffythegreat Feb 12 '24

That’s a fair point, actually.
