Theres already been a person to sing in space, and he played guitar. His Name is Chris Hadfield and he played and sang David Bowies Space oddity on the ISS, where he was also commander.

[@Gustavae]

Singing in space and being the first singer in space are very close to the same thing, but I'm confident that because Hadfield wasn't a singer by trade that it still just barely counts. I guess if we replaced the words "first singer" with "first vocalist" it might be more acceptable.

@@snr0n while the noun version meaning "suspect" can be dated to the 1920s, and the adjective meaning "suspicious" can be dated to 1955, it didn't enter common usage until 2018, six years after this show was recorded.

[@snr0n]

​@@mulrich Nah, Partridge’s Concise Dictionary of Slang and Unconventional English has the adjectival "sus" (for both "suspicious" and "suspect") going back to 1925. I'm sure you're not the only one who clearly learned the word for the first time through Among Us - nothing wrong with that at all, I can think of a fair few words I learned from games myself. But your own personal awareness level has no bearing on the fact that plenty of us were laughing at the hashtag being about "sus anal" at the time. Also, out of curiosity, how common does a word need to be for it to mean what it means? Is there just, like, a top 100, and everything else is nothing?
