You know that game where you can't answer yes or no>? I sometimes challenge myself to do that in everyday life to prevent mental laziness.

A drunk beggar asked me if I had any change last night, I said "Sorry, not today, thank you."  :blush:

It's the very sinews of fucking industry, you hippies.

It's just an excuse to come up with nifty methodologies that one needs to be certified in as a Supply Chain Professional in Supply Chain Management by the Institute of Supply Chain Management of America, not to be confused with the American Institute of Supply Chain Management or the American Association of Supply Chain Managers.

Why do people say "yeah no" when agreeing, or even sometimes even disagreeing with others?

It's weird, at least in my part of Germany people would use "Ja, nee" similarly.

How many homemade certifications did you print off your laser printer this week?  Word has such fancy templates these days.

I've been guilty of using "yeah, no" a fair bit.  In my case, the "yeah" tends to not actually have any meaning- it's just a replacement filler word for "um" or "uh."
