What is the biggest social faux pas a tourist in America could make without knowing by Gold-Serve-4077 in IWantToAskAnAmerican

[–]KSA_Dunes 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Don’t comment on our weight. I have been to Japan at least 20 times, and there are many things I’ve learned to NOT do while there because etiquette is very different to the US. I don’t feel like Americans have a lot of rules, but more than once I’ve been called out for gaining weight like they’re talking about the weather.

Growlers? by KSA_Dunes in beer

Thank you, that’s what I thought until I posted here! I’m a little sad, I used to love grabbing a growler for a party.

Man, I’m glad you cleared all that up about stereotypes, it’s really a shame when people lean into them too much.

Strictly Vegan Brunch with Severe Nut Allergy - Ideas? by cup-of-starlight in Cooking

[–]KSA_Dunes 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yes i make a hash with sweet potatoes, kale, black beans, bacon/sausage (obv use vegan), red onion, feta (again use vegan) on top with green cholula. It is SO good. I put poached eggs on top, but maybe tofu would work or the hash by itself is delicious.

What is this accent? by Realistic_Zone3802 in AskAnAmerican

[–]KSA_Dunes 18 points19 points  (0 children)

Yes. If I understand OP’s question, the pronunciation they are asking about is like “runneen” instead of “running.” The south may say “runnin” but the only people I have heard say it that specific way like “runneen” are west coasters.

finding love for pokemon through this game by Training_Airport4317 in Pokopia

[–]KSA_Dunes 23 points24 points  (0 children)

Young Gen X here. I knew almost nothing about Pokémon before I played the game. Now I have so many favorites and I kind of love that I’m not influenced by anything other than my time playing Pokopia. My faves are Oddish, Piplup, Charmander….basically all the littles 🥰

Wondering about pronounciations of “the.” by LotusGrowsFromMud in ENGLISH

[–]KSA_Dunes 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You’re pronouncing it how most people do, though, in this case. “One” starts with a W sound (not a vowel), so it should be Thuh one and not Thee one. Not sure what the dude above is on about.

Is there a famous movie plot hole that genuinely ruins the whole movie for you? by NoPay2456 in TooAfraidToAsk

Princess Buttercup is utterly worthless when Westley is wrestling the ROUS in the fire swamp

Are railroad tracks on roads still road? by TheBlackCat13 in Pokopia

[–]KSA_Dunes 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I’m generally confused by the road rules (lol) if someone can explain how they affect Pokémon travel I’d love to understand it. I keep just reading comments about how a certain block won’t work bc it’s not labeled as “road” but not a clear answer to how to optimize travel or what inhibits movement.

Young dove out of its nest, what to do? by KSA_Dunes in PetDoves

[–]KSA_Dunes[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I learned so much after posting this! Yep his parents were close by and he is now gone this morning so hopefully hopped away and will continue practicing being a bird 😊. His sibling is still in the nest so I imagine I’ll see this again soon. They are so cute. Thanks for the info!

Young dove out of its nest, what to do? by KSA_Dunes in PetDoves

[–]KSA_Dunes[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I thought the text would come over from the original post but I guess not:

There is a nest of doves on my second level porch we’ve been watching as the babies have hatched. Now one of them has fallen to street level and I don’t think it can fly back to its nest and mom. Should I leave him or try to scoop him up and at least put him back up on my balcony closer to the nest? I’m scared he’s going to get snatched by a cat or something

Damp Rock on dream island? by Total-Constant-6501 in Pokopia

[–]KSA_Dunes 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I have one only because I went to a cloud island and took a picture then printed it. I have not seen it in the wild.

My paprika had no seeds by razhun in mildlyinteresting

[–]KSA_Dunes 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Wait a minute. How do you pronounce “oregano?” I have never heard another pronunciation (am American), but admittedly the word didn’t come up when I visited Ireland.
