We say "PEE-do-file". Americans say "Pedd-o-phile."
Technically it *is* pronounced "PEE-do-file," no matter where you're from. Consider "pediatrics," "pediatrician," and "pedophagic". "PED-o" usually refers to feet: "pedometer," "pedal," "quadruped". :eng101:

Japan seems to have switched over to digital price displays in a lot of (larger) supermarkets.



Nice handwritten approximation of LCD numbers on the bottom signs there.

Not exactly. If you look closly at the one on the right, you can see that it's a group of 4 digital style 8s that were printed on the sheet. You use something white to color over the parts you don't need for the numbers you want. I've seen signing like that in various stores here in the US.
They must have been printed pretty sloppily for the number lines to look so uneven.

And, according to IMDB, people are employing him again for some horrid reason.
He was actually pretty good in Blue Jasmine. Kind of made you forget what a horrible person he was the first time you heard about him.

Have a different kind of dice to take your mind off that one:

This was done better (and in a less sexist way) in the PYF Hilarious Joke to Tell thread with the setup "Why are teenagers so odd?"

Yeah actually that cover owns.
If Penguin is rereleasing a bunch of classics with this kind of cover, I may need to add to my library. I bought three of the Harry Potter books in a slick black "for grownups" jacket in New Zealand, but never found the rest. :(

You'd think they'd know to bury that kind of juicy infaux. As it stands now, shrewder readers wouldn't get two sentences in before dismissing the whole thing as bollocks.

Someone go warm up the Enola Gay.
Amazingly enough, it's not from Japan. The text on the box is Traditional Chinese (used in Taiwan, Hong Kong, and Macau), the text in the caption is Simplified Chinese (used in mainland China and Singapore). Better get 'em all, just to be safe.

e: I take that back--there's a Japanese-only character on the box, but some of the other characters on there are not Japanese. Might be China-made for Japan? aaaanyway

It's called "Devil's Night" in Detroit, which is a very specific regional thing.
Until they started calling it "Angel's Night" in the hopes of making people stop setting fire to things. It actually worked! (Of course, the roving squads of volunteers out to stop those up to no good helped.)
