Edit: It's "toeing the line". 
It's amazing how much this saying has been abused in the internet age.
"Toeing the line" means someone is testing the limits of something by going all the way up to the "too far" line, but not going over it. Just putting their toe nearly on the line rather than over it. Like a Resetera user being almost anti-Semitic prior to yesterday, but pulling it back just before calling all Jews Nazis.
"Towing the line" in this internet age seems to have been adopted as a way of accusing someone of following the rules, but maybe slightly against their will.
I don't know. Millennials are retards man.
You’re right about the misspelling, but to toe the line does mean to stay in formation as part of the group. Like a lot of phrases it’s naval in origin, from the literal line that sailors form up on.

From Wikipedia
Quote:Other suggested origins
Over the years the term has been attributed to sports, including toeing the starting line in track events and toeing a center line in boxing, where boxers were instructed to line up on either side of to start a match. However, the earlier boxing term was toeing the scratch, referring to a scratch mark on the floor. One of the earliest references related to an English prize fight in 1840.[12]
Byam Shaw's painting Toeing the Line, depicting a scene at Ascot, alludes to it being a term used in horse racing.
Seems both are right. I stand corrected. When I leaned the term, it was definitely used as the alternative sporting reference of not breaking the rules but getting as close to it as possible.
yeah, they need child soldiers to launch missiles and drones. as of yet this war is not being fought on the ground. stop buying into propaganda.
"bubububbut, da child soldiers, iran bad  "
That’s not what you said, asshole.
You said “they attacked a school first”  as that somehow justified recruiting children. When called out you decided to use “is just propaganda, bro”.

Child soldiers just make sense, you don't have to feed them as much, and they're a smaller target and harder to hit.
Edit: Think Oddjob in Golden Eye.

boreform only likes it when the U.S. and israel are bombing civilians to uh, .... save the civilians! just like the propaganda told him
"child soldiers are being used!"
while the u.s. and israel are bombing children is the dumbest possible take. especially when there is no use for any child soldiers in a war being fought through missile and drone warfare. boreform needs to relearn his english and stop buying into the goofiest propaganda he can find

The first major story arc on the show is a multiple episodes long tirade against political correctness.
If memory serves, he's also a libertarian who describes the movement as conservatives who smoke pot.
He's friendly and pretty generous, I believe, but I imagine a lot of people here wouldn't be as happy engaging with Drew Carey on more than the most surface level. "He might be a nice guy, but I disagree with with his politics."

John Lithgow, children’s author, advocate for disadvantaged children’s access to the arts, widely liked good dude, is truly an evil genocidal maniac because he’s playing a wizard in a TV show I don’t like.

 that is odd, isn't it
of course you're literally killing them by preventing them from doing whatever they want all the time, because being denied anything causes those suicidal thoughts to creep in, and you caused them, so

He’s right about the ps5 pro tho. Especially now that pssr is better. You get 90% of the way to a 5090 for a quarter of the money. However in doing so you are selling your soul to upscale ai satan and are probably a genocide.
