Yeah, I was gonna say he was an older dude and I think bikers had it that way but it was in the context of a mmo guild. "We just knocked the poo poo out of their capital, gently caress the world guys!" just seemed like an odd reading to me.

I wouldn't know from raccoons but a little pug weighs way more than you'd think compared to a cat. Cats is mostly bones and hair. Hell, their terminal velocity isn't enough to kill them.

Okay so if FTW came from angry bikers and biker gangs originated in San Diego as vets returned from WWII to the naval base there with bad attitudes and a lot of combat meth, where would they have learned the art of making every little thing into abbreviations from? It's the U.S. military ladies and gents. They are the ones who say FTW Both meanings now.

Sucrose posted:The letter "S" is probably deliberately shaped like a snake. It's the Latin alphabet, and the word for snake in Latin is "Serpens." It can't possibly be a coincidence. Have you seen how jaggy the early forms of letters are? I don't know if it's because they had to be carved into stone or wax or what but there's nothing sinuous about early forms of "s" It could be trying to look snakelike but the ancient "s" looks more like a sideways "w"

So everyone knows goons love The Wire but it took me to the drat end of the show to be completely certain that Snoop was a woman. I'm going to have to rewatch to see if there are any indications at all about this. I always wondered I mean, I'm not blind but I honestly couldn't figure it out and didn't want to look it up. I guess the tendency for enjoying The Wire goes along with face blindness in the hivemind.

Words like "valet" and "foyer" are properly pronounced as read in English. People try to put on airs with those but nope.

If you're going to somewhere fancy enough that someone takes your keys and parks for you, I don't think you have to worry about sounding like Mr Fancywords. No. I'm thinking of the movie Roadhouse. And yes, you pronounce it like pallet.

In Terry Pratchett's Discworld book (and the Sky tv miniseries) The Hogfather the holiday Hogswatch (analogous to Christmas) sounds very much like hogwash. It's cool how he had anthropomorphic Death, the tooth fairy and the eponymous Hogfather be real in support of the childish spirit in fantasy. Actually pretty uplifting but never the less hogwash.

Wouldn't it be great if you had that autismal memory for different kinds of rocks where you could alienate everyone in your hiking party with gross puns. I totally would. This is a prime example of cuckingstone. It only forms when a cuckeurite smashes into common limestone and converts the surrounding minerals into cuckulite. The parents then raise it as their own. *titters*

Inzombiac posted:I pronounce it "Uh-mal-gum" though I knew someone that said it, "Aye-male-gum" but he was from Minnesota. I have a theory that the guys from MST3K/Rifftrax deliberately mispronounce words to get angry fan letters or that the Midwest is just utterly horrible at pronunciation. Every single ep has some horribly mangled words or the emphasis is just so far off that they may have never spoken or heard spoken the words in question.

It took me like 10 years to figure out England Dan & John Ford Coley's I'd Really Love To See You Tonight's lyrics were "I'm not talking 'bout moving in And I don't want to change your life But there's a warm wind blowing The stars are out and I'd really love to see you tonight" Old dorky song I guess but I could not figure out "'bout moving in" for the life of me. Misheard Lyrics: "I not talking about the linen." Original Lyrics: "I'm not talking 'bout moving in" Some singers are just bad at enunciating, is my excuse.

The way software like iTunes, Mediamonkey, Picard, Foobar2k and maybe Winamp? screw up my mp3 database so half of the "various artist" tracks and a bunch of others feature Big Boi as cover art is a lesson to me in not coveting the pristine organization of music.

Their self titled album is also their only album that is on multiple lists of the best albums of the 1990s. Sorry, I've got all their albums and been listening to them since high school but 40oz was the one I remember best.
