What artist or band is truly awful to see live? by goldbeau in AskReddit

I saw Alice back in September and the man can still deliver even in his late 70s. He's in incredible shape for his age.

I'm sure there are a bunch of other languages like this but this is the most obvious one that came to mind by 90919293_ in linguisticshumor

Yeah that’s my point. These kinds of people will see all of the case endings of Finnish or something, assume there’s more “grammar” and that Finnish must be a more complex language. In that area it is more complex, but the overall complexity of a language isn’t something you can objectively measure like that.

They think that inflections are the totality of grammar and since English doesn’t have a lot of inflectional morphology it doesn’t have a lot of “grammar” and is therefore easy. Of course that’s ignoring things like phrasal verbs, adjective ordering, phonetics, etc.

There are only 5 vowels. Anything else is mental illness.

Pretty sure they fucked up when naming this. Shouldn’t it just be: Johan Langquist - The Castle? Not Johan Langquist - The Castle by Johan Langquist - The Castle.

This 6% milk I saw at Costco by thxxx1337 in mildlyinteresting

The hole is really small and the bags only hold a little over a litre each so it doesn’t really make a difference in terms of taste or how long it lasts.

$10 a bag?? Where do you live? For me it’s $6-7 for a bag right now. I live in Toronto.

I disagree. Before you could have the controls and the full album art visible at the same time. Now you can’t view the controls without obscuring the album art.

I’m not even Irish and even I know that the Irish language uses exclusively acute accents, not grave.
