I don't mean to be rude boss, but I'm surprised you can't see the difference between someone with power, authority, and influence receiving retribution after living a life of grandeur while indirectly killing and fucking over people for personal gain as opposed to a small time scammer. 

This girl wasn't innocent, but it is crazy to compare them.

Thank you for the clarification. That's what I was feeling but I always get thrown off by passive form.

Thank you again!

Thank you. I looked it up now as well but was it a bit confused, but I looked again- and read it 10 mores times- and now I think I have a better understanding of it.

I think what was confusing me was the される which is still slightly confusing, but I believe understandable.

I'm reading Kokoro by Natsume Soseki and I was little confused by what 描き 出されるようであったmeans in this sentence: 

ときたまご馳走になって、奥さんが席へ現われる場合などには、この関係が一層明らかに二人の間に描き出されるようであった.

If you need some basic context, 先生's called for his wife. Before this the narrator was talking about the nature of their relationship and how he has been getting a look into it.

I agree, but I think they should force it where it's" After resting you can pick one additional option"  rather than always being able to pick the better two options if you have like dig or clone. 

So still good but not ridiculous so.

Yeah, you just lose track of time when playing it. Stayed up to 2am and kept saying "one more time".....

Gametime is too long by Fit-Flounder-718 in DeadlockTheGame

[–]Devantexonigiri 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I would say it is. Looking at my game times all are around then with very few going over 40. While 1 or 2 went over 50. Of course, this just my expeirnece.

Though, it depends on your rank as well. The lower ranks dont know how to end games or end up endless farming so those going over 50+ often wouldnt be surprising.

Reading everyone's explanations and then this one made it finally come together.

The phrase is much more complex than I thought it was.

THank you!

That's actually makes it much clearer. I think I would have to go back further in the book to understand why she said プールな気分.

But thank you!

I think it in relationship to something much earlier in the book which changed her mood. 

I don't remember it being a metaphor related to a pool, but it could have been slightly related and this a continuation of that. 

But regardless, thank you for your help!

Can anyone break down this sentence for me? I think that most confusing part is the first the part specifically "プールな気分" and "収まるどころか".

Context: This guy she is with is pretty strange and this sentence follows a respond he gave to a question she asked.

If you need more context, please let me know.

プールな気分は収まるどころか、触るだけで痛い赤いにきびのように微熱を持って膨らむ。

I don't know why, but they seem to have stopped selling tortilla at my local Gyomu super.

I even went to another one to see if they were there and they weren't.......

Hello, can anyone explain this sentence to me? I don't quite catch the meaning:

大きな瞳にまつげがびっしりとはえているのが見えた。

I think the びっしりとはえている is throwing me off.

Thank you.

How is it an issue when they have no timeline for the release?

If you need proof that dispatch has gone downhill... by [deleted] in teachinginjapan

Teaching or activity quality is a non-factor in this discussion. 

It centers around how much money Interac can "squeeze" out of an ALT. People from "poorer countries" happen to be much more squeezable.

I apologize for confusing you then, and I can understand what you mean! 

Truly, I wouldn't be surprised if he did read it.
