This was inevitable when you name you music festival after a word that was used by racists to catch WW2 japanese spies. Content, DALL-E image titled "Last Selfie on Earth"  There are more but they're all some variant of "Zombie person in a post-industrial hellscape".

It’s cause that sour and bitter taste it gets when left on a hot porch works with the flavor profile. It’s good iced.

Yaldabaoth posted:This was inevitable when you name you music festival after a word that was used by racists to catch WW2 japanese spies. What Wikipedia (Lollapalooza) posted:The word—sometimes alternatively spelled and pronounced as lollapalootza, lalapaloosa,[12] or lallapaloosa (P. G. Wodehouse, "Heart of a Goof")—dates from a late 19th-century/early 20th-century American idiomatic phrase meaning "an extraordinary or unusual thing, person, or event; an exceptional example or instance".[13] Its earliest known use was in 1896.[14] In time, the term also came to refer to a large lollipop.[15] Farrell, searching for a name for his festival, liked the euphonious quality of the by-then-antiquated term upon hearing it in a Three Stooges short film.[16] Paying homage to the term's double meaning, a character in the festival's original logo holds a lollipop.[15] Wikipedia (Shibolleth) posted:Some United States soldiers in the Pacific theater in World War II used the word lollapalooza as a shibboleth to challenge unidentified persons, on the premise that Japanese people would often pronounce both letters L and R as rolled Rs.[22] In Oliver Gramling's Free Men are Fighting: The Story of World War II (1942) the author notes that, in the war, Japanese spies would often approach checkpoints posing as American or Filipino military personnel. A shibboleth such as "lollapalooza" would be used by the sentry, who, if the first two syllables come back as rorra, would "open fire without waiting to hear the remainder".[23] Ah. Bit of a stretch, OP.

I admit I was wrong about the word being invented in WW2, but that doesn't change the fact that "Japanese people can't pronounce the L sound" is a racist stereotype and it was very risky to base a method of spy detection on racial prejudice that could have easily turned out to be wrong and let the enemy get past the checkpoints.

The word of the day is "Shibboleth" and it's been a tactic used since way before WW2. Allied forces had a challenge code for Germans. The pass codes were "Flash" and "Thunder," two words that are difficult to pronounce correctly in English with a German accent. Ukrainian soldiers are doing it too with the word "Palianytsia." It's kind of helpful when everyone speaks Russian and camo looks the same at night. Robo Reagan posted:sir this is a wendys I mean, uhhhh I'll have a #5 with a Coke.

Speech is made up of units of sound called phonemes. There are about 200 phonemes that are used, but no language has more than about 70. Sometime early in life people lose the ability to distinguish and produce phonemes that aren't used in the languages that they're exposed to. With practice, some people can learn to pick out phonemes that they don't use, but it's never going to be a really natural thing and even some professional linguists never really get very good at it. Japanese doesn't distinguish between the phonemes that we represent with "r" and "l", and so native Japanese speakers would have trouble pronouncing "lollapalooza". But American English speakers don't pronounce the word "Hindi" the way a native Hindi speaker would, and most of us would have trouble hearing the difference. (FTR, when you pronounce the "d", your tongue should touch the bottom of your front teeth rather than the soft tissue behind them.) Of course reality isn't quite that simple; see At what age do children lose the ability to hear phomene differences that their native language doesn't make? and links therein for some more details.
