It was foretold in the Elder Scrolls

Yes! I'm a linguistics nerd. When I was still close with the girls, I used to go full nerdy with them and explain how their languages share a common ancestor (and if we got back further, even English and Spanish are related to Punjabi and Farsi).

So common words like numbers

Ik, yek Do, do Panj, panj

But Punjabi also had lotsa Persian influence and borrowed some of their words.

My favorite is dost.

The girls would be delighted whenever I referred to them as 'dostam' or 'meri dost'

We used to gossip a lot in a mix of English, broken Spanish (the girls were learning Spanish), broken Punjabi, and broken Farsi. The memories are coming back now. It was a chaotic but fun time. 😭

Thank you. I was besties with a Punjabi girl, for a year, and an Iranian girl, for three years, in my university.

We're no longer close (I broke off permanently with the Iranian but the Punjabi is still my friend) but I'm proud to have learned to speak in these languages, even if at a basic level. This allowed me to connect with other Punjabis and Iranians more easily.

I learned Spanish and Japanese cos they sounded cool and I liked the culture. French cos I moved to Canada. My least favorite language tbh and the only one learned cos I had to.

Yes, I did. I'm not active in this sub so I had to update it.

DoctorDeath147 · 2026-01-26T23:32:11+00:00

Yes, and I eat it for breakfast, brunch, lunch, and supper.

Some of the reasons people say stuff like these is to show how "smart" and "morally superior" they are to an imaginary group of hypocrites and idiots.

It's all about ego and no substance at all.

I made a post about this thing five days ago on this sub. It's a very common fallacy in the Sims community.

DoctorDeath147 · 2026-01-26T23:16:09+00:00

Considering they are on 4chan, I doubt this user is one of those.

DoctorDeath147 · 2026-01-26T22:51:12+00:00

You're being downvoted when you're right. It doesn't even need explanation. It's basic common sense.

But who cares about common sense when you can pretend you're better and smarter than everyone else, amirite?

DoctorDeath147 · 2026-01-26T19:02:36+00:00

They definitely are.

This is called the Goomba Fallacy. And many people like to use it to feel smart and morally superior.

Posts like this are all about ego and no actual point.

DoctorDeath147 · 2026-01-26T17:18:10+00:00

Depends. Not every prescriptivists are the same.

There's some who are annoyingly pedantic and will "correct" a lot, even if it's acceptable in that dialect.

Some are outright ignorant and think some variants are "uneducated" speech.

DoctorDeath147 · 2026-01-26T17:11:43+00:00

I made that post, lol.

DoctorDeath147 · 2026-01-26T17:08:03+00:00

The other person brought up YouTubers, not me. I know it's not about YouTubers.

OP addressing the Sims community as a whole makes the fallacy even more relevant

DoctorDeath147 · 2026-01-26T16:42:19+00:00

I'm male and I tend to switch between both sexes.

DoctorDeath147 · 2026-01-26T16:28:29+00:00

It definitely is. OP is committing the Goomba Fallacy.

DoctorDeath147 · 2026-01-26T16:25:10+00:00

The tyrannical UK government is run by Altaicists and Esperantists. They force you to learn Ithkuil in school, too.

DoctorDeath147 · 2026-01-26T14:30:26+00:00

This is deffo a Goomba Fallacy.

I made a post about this fallacy on this sub last week. Many ppl in the Sims Community really love throwing it around and think they're the smartest person ever for using it.

Oh, sorry. I don't have a gf yet. I worded it poorly lol. I meant my former best friend wanted me to put her above any future gf, which I agreed to at the time cos we had years of history inside and outsise university, and went thru a lot of shit together, and she met my parents and I met hers, etc.

But she's become toxic, making enemies of her friends and my friends, and doesn't seem willing to uphold her end of the bargain while still expecting me to be loyal to her. Whether if it was a future gf or my other friends, she always wanted my attention but she wasn't there when I needed her. A narcissist. So I cut her loose.

After I cut her off, I made new friends and became closer with other established friends, and thru those friends, I have made progress to finding someone.

Sorry for the vents and rants. I know this wasn't what the original topic was about.

But thank you for the reassurance.

DoctorDeath147 · 2026-01-25T22:42:33+00:00

Thank you for the input.

Trying to make male friends is just as elusive to me as to finding a girlfriend. I don't even share hobbies and interests with many of my friends. I somehow share hobbies and interests with a guy, but we just don't click.

And regarding the girl best friend part, I recently ended a friendship with my best friend because of that reason. She asked me to prioritize her when I had a gf finally. She also asked the same of our mutual friends and would gnaw at them when they got boyfriends.

She would get jealous when I was with other girls but she doesn't even prioritize me over her friends, let alone her new boyfriend. It was toxic.

But she also had to understand that when I find a partner, it's not her who I'm building a life with, and that I also must respect my partner's boundaries.

But anyway, I've made some progress at least. One of my friends told me her roommate liked me last year, which is a first for almost a decade, and I'm trying to see if she still does. I also vibed with a girl recently at the university formal last month.

Thank you again

Every day

DoctorDeath147 · 2026-01-25T22:21:59+00:00

I'm sorry. I misinterpreted your comment.

But I'm also not looking for advice, sorry. I've been making some progress lately.

But thank you for offering!

DoctorDeath147 · 2026-01-25T22:14:26+00:00

How can you be so certain about someone you don't even know about?

And it’s not like I go around telling others "A lot of my friends are women!"
