In case you don't understand, I'm burning my alts because I'm done. You've destroyed any vestige of what made BYOB a welcoming and creative space. It's a vanity board for a clique of the most intolerant, inflexible, unfunny, unchill people you could possibly imagine. Maybe it always was and I was the idiot for thinking it could be something else.

Anyway there's a lot of posters that gave me so much joy and so many laughs over the years. They're why I came back time and again but hell, if I can't even open a thread and post with them, there's no point.

It's kind of nice to get to post in this extremely pathetic embarrassing way knowing I won't be around to see people make fun of me. On the other hand, when I got banned by Lowtax, g0m made fun of me, which I have always considered an honor, so maybe some genuinely funny people can make fun of how loving stupid this all is. That would be a nice ending.

No Longer Touching.

You know what, maybe dating advice from me isn't very good.

I crushed my crush and now the FBI is after me

I don't think I did it right

I think the phrasing you’re looking for is “smash that crush”.

This secret posting cabal thing definitely explains my recent thread's lack of success. Dang conspiracy.

I'm on an aeroplane headed for Canada and I'm getting like ⅕ of what the flight attendant is saying.

I thought my French was pretty good but maybe not 🫤

Finger Prince posted:

Hot tip: French /= Québecois. Especially when mumbled by a marginally bilingual flight attendant reading off a card.

xcheopis posted:

Not required to be fluent? Huh.

Finger Prince posted:

Depends on the airline and the definition of fluent. There'll be a crew member who is fluent, but they might not be the one reading the announcements. Also, unlike the British, there's no expectation of adopting an RP accent for public speaking, so you can get the most unintelligible bumpkin francophone from the Gaspe doing the French announcements and literally nobody from a French speaking country will understand a word they're saying.

xcheopis posted:

I wonder if there's a similar problem for people in Spanish speaking countries. Like, are Argentines considered to have the best accent? Are Peruvians considered bumpkins?

Finger Prince posted:

I don't know about the language, but I watched a cool Spanish heist/buddy kind of movie and it played heavily on Spanish stereotypes of other spanish speakers that I had no clue about. Apparently Argentinians are all charming rogues and their roguish charm is seen as very tiresome.
