It did make the work day go by faster, so I didn't really mind as long as they weren't racist or trying to get me to join their weird sect.

Untranslatable Fingerpori  So yeah. In Finnish knee is "polvi". The word for generation is "sukupolvi", literally family/ancestry knee. The etymology of the word is unknown, but some linguists believe that "polvi" was used to indicate bends, corners, turns etc, and the knee is the leg's turning point. A generational shift is also considered a shift or turn of some kind, so I guess it makes some amount of sense. In any case, in common language it is common to say that someone is "toisen polven" (second generation, but literally second knee's) something, and the word for second, "toinen" is also the word for another or other. So this orthopedist is either a second generation surgeon, or the orthopedist for the other knee. Shaman Tank Spec fucked around with this message at 08:50 on Jan 25, 2024 |

Tiggum posted:It actually stands out as unusual in Baldur's Gate 3 that, once you get to the city, there are a bunch of NPCs standing around in the streets having conversations and the vast majority of them have no interest in talking to you or giving you any tasks or letting you help them solve their problems. It's actually kind of annoying how much time you can waste trying to start quests with NPCs who only exist to add detail and colour to the world. I’ve actively been avoiding those conversations all this time because I was afraid that they would add yet more quests to an ever-growing checklist. Now I’m relieved to hear that’s not true.

Forgot to post Buni yesterday so here it is.  Rhymes with Orange  Get Fuzzy 1/24/04  Brenda Starr 7/3-5/52    As far as I can determine, estate taxes in 1952 were applied to any estate of over $10 million, and were 77% of the amount over $10M. Smokey Stover 5/24/59  Everyday Movies 3/6/37  "I'm so mad -- I wish that lollipop I've just eaten had been green instead of red." That's a 45-year-old toddler. Invisible Scarlet O'Neil 12/31/42 - 1/2/43  Oh, laaaaaaaame.   YES YES HIPPY'S BACK YOU'RE FORGIVEN STAMM Closer Than We Think! 5/24/59  Bonus Ad! Uh, what sauce?

That was a very quick and tidy progression in Valiant! The trouble is in the following strips then. This new storyline of Phantom has been written, let alone drawn, with all the seriousness of a parody. Just one big piss-take. "Hahaha, I sure was stupid!" "You sure were stupid, honey!" I... can't believe I already miss the Mozz storyline.  I'm gonna be really surprised if Sam doesn't get shot in L'il Abner. This guy puts in more work to spread misery than some serial killers. Selachian posted:YES YES HIPPY'S BACK YOU'RE FORGIVEN STAMM  Always bet on Stamm.

Forum accident posted:(11/6/1993) Pompeii existed for centuries before it was destroyed and that guy looks pretty old, so unless this was around ~50 to 70 CE, he's probably making a good move. (Pompeii was destroyed in 79 CE IIRC)

Well, that seems to be a genuine Congolese recipe. Back in the 1950s, I'm pretty sure "Stewart's Hot Congo Sauce" would be about as spicy as a single unseeded jalapeño stirred into a gallon of vegetable oil.

I was like "drat" Doomykins posted:Gotta say it before I forget it for the tenth time: thanks for posting Cul De Sac again! It's a touch of joy every day. Once I started inflicting Rose is Rose on the thread, I figured I should expand my GoComics offerings. Seeing Cul de Sac in the list was a no-brainer. The FoxTrot reruns appealed to me because they're currently in 2003, which was right after I fell off of if and all newspaper comics (I'd just started college, and I was only reading the campus newspaper on a regular basis.)

Bless you, Miss. Nothing has ever made me give less of a gently caress in my entire life than discussion about how good the company is doing. If this old fart wants people to have the brand loyalty he used to then maybe corporations shouldn't be actively antagonizing society and their employees.
