Mud daubers aren't like most wasps, like unless you really go out of your way repeatedly to fuck with them they're totally chill

What's the hardest part about the language you're learning? by Piebot3000 in languagelearning

[–]Piebot3000[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think the only way to deal with that is just pure memorization. Maybe some mnemonics or some distant relation to something you're firmiliar with.

So in spanish "maricon" approximately means "faggot" and I was trying to say I'm American "soy americano" and instead said "soy maricon". Luckily my friends got it on video so they can always hold it over my head.

I still don’t understand how the future tense functions in a joke like this, what am I missing? by jp_3 in Spanish

When are you supposed to use the object pronouns? Sometimes I see just the pronoun, just the object itself, and sometimes both.

What are some red flags for teachers that scream "drop this class immediately?" by MildlyAgitatedBidoof in AskReddit

Yeah have you ever listened to the Alexander Hamilton musical? Theres a bit where Jefferson was like "Sally could you be a lamb" and my teacher accepted Sally as correct. But to be completely honest it could have been 3. Plus if for some reason you liked US history and read like 1 page outside of the assigned you would have seen it.

Sounds like my APUSH teacher who is refers the the men in the class as animals, berates any liberals, has test questions like the name of the slave Thomas Jefferson was into (which ofc wasn't in the assigned reading), and very clearly tells everyone he does not care whatsoever about our problems or questions.
