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.

yeah, nazis.

the guy with the shirt that says "nazi furries don't exist" is noted nazi fur crusader cat (he also hosed a cat). and sitting on the same row as him fourth from the right is foxler (fox hitler). in the middle in orange is the leader of the furry raiders, a neo-nazi furry group

Another curse is people on these very forums who sincerely say the forums have have gone downhill since its creation. They were obviously never around back then (I wasn't, either) or have never looked up the vile poo poo that was the norm around here. It's not perfect, obviously but I couldn't ever imagine being around during the super edgy days.

Nostalgia's a hell of drug.

A lot of what people liked about the old SA is that we were all 15-20 years younger then and it was much easier to be optimistic because of everything that hadn't happened yet back then.

Nope. Next time you go to the eye doctor, take a printout of the picture and tell them you thought everyone saw like that.

Everything I know about the Everett True comic makes it sound like he mostly beats up complete idiots.

Some of the comics have aged very well and those are the ones you see passed around on the internet. Others haven't--Everett feels very strongly that real men don't wear wristwatches, for instance--and those tend not to show up so much.

He's lucky to have made it that long. Synthol in high doses is nasty stuff.

Maybe don�t inject yourself with oil

A lot of bodybuilders inject themselves with small doses of Synthol to touch up muscles, and as things bodybuilders do around competition time it's not that bad. But the injecting yourself with the doses you have to use to get muscles like that is one of the worst ideas out there.

I still remember picking out one of those that the flavor chart said was sardine, and figuring there's no way anyone would actually make a fish-flavored jellybean. I was wrong and it was incredibly foul.
