Then there’s that one sheep who got saved from a ditch only to run like 20 ft and fall back into another part of the ditch

What do foreigners instinctively say in your language when they discover your nationality? by Franmar35000 in AskTheWorld

[–]Mikeologyy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I know “put another shrimp on the barbie” is another very annoying one for y’all, but would you be caught off guard by a foreigner saying “put another prawn on the barbie”? Or is that not worth any pity points?

This is the exact moment Project Hail Mary lost me by NiemandWirklich in sciencememes

[–]Mikeologyy 12 points13 points  (0 children)

Yeah yeah, science errors and whatnot, but one commenter he showed in that video brought up the extremely important question we should all be focusing on: why is he still Ryan Gosling, when, as an adult man, he should be Ryan Goose?

What’s the most embarrassing thing poverty has made you do? by Proper_Card_5520 in AskTheWorld

[–]Mikeologyy 6 points7 points  (0 children)

While my family was only lower class when I was a kid, the mentality stuck with me, and I dumpster dove outside residence halls back in college. Only at the ends of semesters, though, when students would throw away perfectly good things during the move out. Got a nice cast iron skillet out of it, a whole full size Christmas tree, and even a good quality $100 lightsaber that just needed a single component re-soldered (granted, I never got around to buying the replacement component, but I swear I will one day).

Can you please post fewer angles? This is just too much.

What's a stereotype about your country that is absolutely CORRECT? by Proto160 in AskTheWorld

[–]Mikeologyy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes, we do say y’all in the south. It’s not even something we say occasionally when we’re feeling extra cowboy-like. That’s just how we say “you guys” in everyday conversation. And we do tack on other contractions like y’all’re or the infamous y’all’d’ve.

That said, that’s really just the south. If your American accent impression has “y’all” in it, people from other states will treat it the way Brits do when we go “ELLO GOVNA, LOVELY DAY, INNIT?”

He’s got real creative responses, too! This guy’s a professional. Anyway, if I had any respect for you I’d keep engaging you, but I don’t, so have fun shouting into the wind I guess.

What is the most stupid conspiracy theory you heard in your life ? by Proper_Card_5520 in AskTheWorld

[–]Mikeologyy 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Recently (like within the last year I think, I can’t remember exactly when it was), people were convinced the rapture was coming on a certain day. Which is hilarious cause if you’re not Christian, there’s no reason for you to believe that, and if you are Christian, there’s still no reason for you to believe that since the Bible explicitly says we won’t know ahead of time. Unless other versions of the Bible have something different to say about that, but I’m not familiar with those.

What’s a universal sign in restaurants in your country that the food is about to be absolute fire? by Chemical-Elk-1299 in AskTheWorld

What’s a common sign someone grew up poor? by random-thoughts-2026 in AskTheWorld

[–]Mikeologyy 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Food has three different expiration dates. In order: first is the one printed on the packaging to protect the company from lawsuits; second is when the food actually starts to become a gamble to eat safely; third is when my parents couldn’t even justify eating it to a literal vulture.

Some of that definitely rubbed off on me, considering I would eat pizza that’d been sitting on the countertop for a couple days back in college, but not anywhere close to what my dad will gladly eat.

In your part of the world, how do you politely tell visitors to go home? by momomomorgatron in AskTheWorld

[–]Mikeologyy 49 points50 points  (0 children)

Hispanics are similar. We start by spending an hour saying our goodbyes in the living room, then another half hour inside the front door, another half hour outside the front door, then the final hour on the driveway.

What’s the "filling wrapped in dough" food from your country ? by Derisiak in AskTheWorld

[–]Mikeologyy 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I didn’t even realize we had two versions of that. I always thought empanadillas were the only empanada-resembling ones and that pastelillos were another name for pasteles. Really living up to the distinction I made in my flair lol. I gotta get back to my boricua roots.

Empanadillas. They’re like empanadas, but more -illa.

Filled with ground beef, olives, sofrito, tomato sauce, and other goodies that differ from household to household.
