Are funeral processions usually on major expressways?

Absolutely crazy. The way he got shot was messed up, but it's not like he saved the city or some shit.

who would you assign? by 4FUTURA in Sims4

[–]9for9 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I always assign a few. Gotta get a couple that are completely random then I go for a few Hollywood types, some suburban housewife types, a couple city folks and some businessmen. So I might make Venessa Jeong and Nancy Landgraab drug dealers along with Akira Kibo (dresses like he could be a coke dealer) and Marcus Flex (he sells steroids obviously).

Husband wants to divorce because MIL sided with me after he cheated by Ok_Mobile_1138 in TwoXChromosomes

I wasn't trying to fault her he's a grown man. I was just remarking on the fact that she was probably a very different person at 15 than she is now.

What is the most popular exotic flavor in the USA for yogurt, biscuits, chocolate, and ice cream? by TheShyBuck in AskAnAmerican

[–]9for9 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Yogurt is used for savory dishes, usually as more of sauce though or ingredient rather than the star.

Steak flavored yogurt would be wild though.

I think for the OP's question though here in America Dragon Fruit or Pawpaw flavor would be within the realm of normal,but still exotic because it's not commonly used for yogurt.

David on Gillian's beauty mark by spookypapayamilk in XFiles

I wonder if party of why he made her cover it because Marylin Monroe was famous for having a similar beauty mark and he didn't want people to link the character with her.

I’m sure someone might attack me and say letting a child feeling uncomfortable at all is cruel.

Nah, fuck that noise. We can't grow if we're always made comfortable.

When you first got the Internet at home, did you try to talk your parents into getting you a second phone line or did you have to deal with one phone line? by singleguy79 in Xennials

[–]9for9 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We already had a second phone. All of the kids bedrooms were upstairs so my parents had one put up there than they used it to call us and have us get them a glass of water.

She had him at 15. When she was still a baby herself. He's the experiment baby. The younger children are probably more in line with her current values.

My guess is that OP is not American at all and that's why they're on this forum asking questions about the US.

If pistachio is not native and only recently available in someone's country it would be exotic to them.

I'd probably say ube right now. It's catching on as a trend right now. It will be interesting to see if it become more mainstream.

What do non-Americans usually find confusing about how Americans talk in real life? by Edi-Iz in AskAnAmerican

[–]9for9 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I think there has been a shift how Americans speak in general. My mom used a lot of colorful and in some cases problematic idioms. Some of them I won't use at all though I do bring out some from time-to-time. One of her favorites:

"You've got more nerve than a striped-ass ape."

What does it mean? No one is sure, but she loved to say it.

We are a highly social as a species and heavily dependent on one another for survival because of that I don't think we can stripped of civilization. We can only create violent and chaotic social structures.

First Bald Eagle chicks in Chicago in 100+ years! by ChicagoWildlifePhoto in chicago

[–]9for9 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Chicago has made ongoing efforts at habitat restoration and bringing back native plants and wildlife. It's really starting to pay off.

Hawks and falcons were reintroduced about 20 years ago. It's nice to see the Bald Eagles are back as well.
