weak wrists big dick posted:It's because New Coke was actually a "transitional flavor". New New Coke (or what they are telling you is original coke) is actually a new cheaply produced and highly addictive formula of coke. New New Coke (what they brought back after New Coke "flopped" [It was part of their plan all along {this isn't the first time they've done this}]) was a flavor so drastically different that they were able to "slip in" New New Coke under the cover of how disgusting New Coke was. The Double Soda Experiment (or the "Pepsi Taste Test" for the sheeple) is no longer replicatable because Pepsi is empirically better than original coke and New Coke, but not New New Coke This, but with more jews.

Isn't Finnish technically one from ten tens + one from ten? But yeah, Danish is very technically "halfway to the fifth (=4,5 obviously) twenty".

oldpainless posted:I don't know if that comic is legitimate or a parody It's serious. The whole concept of the series is to explain various kinks to the layman. It's a good idea for stuff like pegging and bondage, but I don't think the artist has any real boundaries besides non consensual or literally pedophile stuff, leading to cucks and furries being explained as perfectly okay things.

Is it child sex because the dolls are supposed to be kids? Because otherwise I don't get it. Also it's funny not because kids are having sex but because normally innocent characters are portrayed as hosed up adults, creating a dissonance between expectations and actuality.

When learning Arabic, I didn't have any need to change my way of writing despite having to write right to left, and my sinister wife doesn't have a weird claw grip either. A lot of bad/weird left-handed technique is probably teachers not knowing what to do and compensating in bad ways. I encourage everyone to look closely at middle eastern people writing with neither weird grips nor smeared hands.

Carbon dioxide posted:Wait, the ph isn't an f? I clearly hear a p sound in that second clip. Whenever a language uses a sound your brain is not familiar with, your brain tries to find the best fit, in this case [f], which is a labiodental fricative, that is, made with the lower lip and the front upper teeth. The actual ph sound, which as far as I remember is [ɸ], is a bilabial fricative, which is made with both lips but not used in English. The two are similar but not identical, and some languages care about the difference. See also: Slavic languages having way too many variations of s; shibboleth.

dialhforhero posted:Oe. The thing is, the sounds never really occur in English. Just like the consonant at the beginning of Arabic Ali. So your stupid English brain tries to find the best approximation from the sounds it knows, until it's exposed to a sufficient amount of German it whatever. Or you just end up with an obnoxious accent I guess. Similar things happens with foreigners learning English, especially your th-sounds. Those are commonly interpreted as just t and d respectively and pronounced as such. My second pedantic point in this derail is that writing is auxiliary to language, meaning that language works without letters*. Any spelling conventions are just more or (commonly) less clever ways of trying to describe what comes out of mouths. So the same letter can have wildly different sounds depending on the language (x is commonly ks in English, but an s-like sound in mandarin and a velar fricative (loch) in transliterated Arabic for example). The sound exists without the letter is kind of my point, and the letter is tacked on later, with essentially no influence on the sound. *Yes, I see the irony in typing that

3D Megadoodoo posted:Also why do people always explain Ö in such roundabout ways. It's the vowel sound in RP bird, only sometimes short but still the same sound. There, that simple. No it's not. You're trying to explain a set of sounds in several languages with reference to a specific dialect of English. The vowel in bird is close but not exactly the same as any of those sounds. The underlying problem is that most of what ö covers in Swedish, German and Finnish does not occur in English, much like the sounds represented by th in English does not occur in those languages. Source: I have a master's degree in linguistics, and wrote my bachelor's thesis on the Danish ø-sounds. Also I looked up RP vowels to be sure.

3D Megadoodoo posted:Wow you must've gone to a really bad uni to be so wrong about this and still have graduated. The fact that Ö sounds vary in no way means that "the vowel sound in RP bird" isn't literally the best and simplest way to let Anglophones know what Ö sounds like. And "a specific dialect of English" is exactly what you want to give people whose native accents can vary vastly a reference point they will, in about 100% of cases, be familiar with - it's called RP and it's the specific dialect you can use in this manner. Sorry about continuing this poo poo, but this is just not true. Take a look at these pictures:   First is RP, second is Swedish. Notice how there is an ø (and œ) in the Swedish one but not in the RP one? That's because the sound doesn't appear in RP. Also, knowledge of RP is not as widespread as you think. It's a British thing that still has some residual influence in teaching English as a second language, but a lot of learners either forget about it and lump it into the general British English category or plain never hear about it.

There was this super aggressive swan that decided that a popular bridge sidewalk in Copenhagen was swan country a few years back. One day, a guy got tired of it's poo poo and, I believe, broke its neck. He was fined for the crime, which he admitted to, and was universally acknowledged as a cool guy.
