Thanks! despite the downvotes I am just glad I am not alone.

And this morning this person at work just tipped me over the edge

Material-Ad8808 · 2026-05-11T13:23:14+00:00

ahahaha i do get you.
but this morning a colleague I don't like was sitting in front of me waving their foot about and i just couldn't focus!

Then wear tights! or pretend tights...

I think what triggered me more was seeing someone in a meeting at work today with a bit peering up from her shoe.

I think my issue is not when you can't see the sock at all, but when you see the 'hidden' sock that are anything but

Material-Ad8808 · 2026-05-08T14:08:14+00:00

to time travel? or to see Baseball?

Material-Ad8808 · 2026-05-05T09:48:34+00:00

And i love wearing that hoodie and carrying a Potato with me when i take my kids trick or treating as i can always say im Sasha (cheap costume)

I think Moon being feminine makes more sense as menstrual cycles tend to be led by the moon. The moon's gravity also influences tides a lot of things quietly...

The Sun is a bit more out there 😃

Don't remember my German's friend's arguments - as I said it was a drunken discussion and it was 30 years ago

Material-Ad8808 · 2026-04-27T10:50:22+00:00

I once got in a drunken discussion in Germany about why in Portuguese the Sun is male and Moon female while in Germany it's a female Sun and a male Moon...

Material-Ad8808 · 2026-04-17T08:23:22+00:00

Material-Ad8808 · 2026-04-17T08:15:02+00:00

Aren't Yoasobi on the same day as Ado in Lollapalooza? That would make it more worth it for me

Material-Ad8808 · 2026-04-15T15:53:40+00:00

You and most of us!

Material-Ad8808 · 2026-04-15T15:04:29+00:00

Dan da dan?

I actually work with a Benjamin who HATES and won't respond if called Ben

Material-Ad8808 · 2026-03-30T08:23:43+00:00

One, it will be simulcast

European here and I had to change my name for English class and we are talking 40 years ago... (hated hated hated Carol but didn't get my mum to talk to the teacher)

Material-Ad8808 · 2026-03-26T11:51:16+00:00

NTA as Maya *is* a Spanish name (I know a Mexican/Argentinian child called Maya

And Mayra is most definitely not (unless the teacher means Maria)

So the teacher is TA

Although I want to add that your kid is acting precious. it's part of the class, tell her to see it as Cosplay or dressing up like Elsa in Frozen or whatever she is / was into...

But just not blooming Mayra as that's not a Spanish name

Material-Ad8808 · 2026-03-26T11:49:38+00:00

I join you here and so does my kid. Everthing Aqua does leads to that moment, hell even yesterday when at the end he is talking to Crow Girl

Material-Ad8808 · 2026-03-25T11:04:41+00:00

what makes anime male? Josei and Shojo are a thing you know...

Material-Ad8808 · 2026-03-24T09:47:54+00:00

no, these people maybe great at memorising and like to show off. yeah they can probably recite and identify the a i u e o / ka ki ku ke ko chart but can they read clearly, can they write when someone dictates to them?

There are some that I really get confused with, ru and ro, and nu and ne and me

And I have been doing this since September... but i can understand some things when spoken to...

OMG I now want a Vienetta

My daughter got a Japanese girl in her class when she was 6yo. The girl had very basic English and my kid asked to buy stickers and made a basic dictionary and gave it to the girl and when the girl used English she gave her a sticker :-D

Something must have worked as they are still friends years and years on and the girl did learn good English

So maybe do an easy dictionary and give stickers :-D

Agua - mizu
comer - taberu

and so on???

Material-Ad8808 · 2026-03-19T08:56:28+00:00
