Some countries have laws that are harsh for seeding (distribution) but not for leeching

You are tearing me apart, Lisa!

Given that trek has a contingent of right wing chud fans, it probably wouldn’t have helped

People made up getting upset at vocal fry so they could complain about women

Can you give an example? People have different idiolects but slight changes in intonation aren’t usually enough to make an accent of one type distinct from others in that type. Like not everyone with the General American accent sounds exactly the same but you can still say this group is GenAm, this other one is Appalachian, etc.

How the hell did Samus create peace throughout an entire galaxy by capturing metroids? Surely there are other things to worry about.

When the AI bubble collapses there’s gonna be a big market for companies that can extract data that hasn’t been polluted by AI

I dunno, even assuming Ghengis had sex every day and his proclivities leaned toward having multiple concubines sent to him at one time, that still doesn’t necessarily equal the number of different people someone could cycle through during a session of flogging the bishop. Someone with a high libido could easily pass Khan these days.

I’m guessing that’s why no one talks about Sweden when talking pasta sauce

Don’t all countries have mass produced shitty light lagers or pilsners that don’t taste like much? As far as I know all European countries have giant corporations producing shitty beer. The ones I’ve had personally include Amstel, Kronenbourg, Bitburger, Stella, Urquell, etc, and they’re all universally one note with a light taste on the same level as Budweiser.

I wasn’t around to be drinking back when the “US beer is pisswater” stereotype was around, so I’m not sure why the US got singled out. Maybe the Bud and Coors types were all there was so there were no smaller brands to point to as a sign of quality. But if that stereotype is still around it’s from people who’ve been living under a rock for literal decades.

Why would you do that to yourself? I was tricked into eating it because I saw red sauce on spaghetti and decided that of course it was pasta sauce. Why would anyone ever not put pasta sauce on pasta? I had to stop myself from spitting it out when the weird sweet sensation that was supposed to be savory hit me.

Had the same reaction when I tried to find tomato/vegetable juice and it was similarly disgustingly sweet. Who puts sugar in vegetable juice? Just drink a smoothie with fruit ffs.

Yeah it’s surprising how well a few basic words go over while traveling. I try to learn greetings, excuse me and sorry, thank you, and maybe even “Do you speak English?” (although that’s probably the least useful one for obvious reasons).

If I’m feeling really motivated (which almost never happens) I’ll throw in numbers and a few basic verbs. Less useful these days with smartphones, but managing to get out something like “I want go [place]?” at least got people who could point you in a direction.

The watery beer thing hasn’t been true in 30 years, and generally US beats the entire world for beer these days. Asian beer sucks in general, and Europe can usually only do a couple different styles well.

I know the line before that is supposed to be “Hide your scars to fade away the shakeup”, but it sounds so much like “I just masturbated with the shade up”, especially the whispered repeat after it. If you listen for it the scars line is clearly there, but I’m convinced he said something similar to get away with a line like that on the radio.

What about post wartime foods? After WWII in Japan there was a hotel that had a ton of surplus ketchup, so one chef decided that putting it on pasta wouldn’t be a crime against humanity. Despite the fact that he was wrong, it still persists as a popular dish to this day.

I wore shit like this out of the house, because of how amazingly fucking cool I was

Been like this for awhile now.

For android use revanced or morphe

For browser use firefox and video speed controller

I could’ve ended if they hadn’t given so many concessions to the slavers, but they let that shit fester and grow and now the whole country is the fucking nazi bar.

日 is sun and 本 is origin (in this case), which lines up with the western moniker for Japan as the land of the rising sun.

Also I’d say that goodbye is a decent enough translation for sayonara. I can’t remember the last time I said goodbye in English (instead of bye or see you), and seems almost as formal and final as farewell, which seems almost outdated at this point. I’m not sure I’ve ever actually used that in my entire life.
