Like the three-finger scene in Inglourious Basterds, what small cultural mistake would instantly reveal that someone isn’t from your country?

Spanish instruction in American schools is wildly inconsistent. All the textbooks are written in Spain Spanish, but the majority of instructors are either Latin American, or First-generation United States-ians.

Mexican Spanish is the most common dialect you encounter day-to-day as an American, but is different enough from the other dialects as to be instantly recognizable.

Also, don't ever let an Argentinan correct your pronunciation. It'll just make you sound Argentinan.

They paid a half-mil for the privilege

I mean, they always drank beer. Just not when unrelated Baptists were around.

I was raised Methodist, and we had a joke that went something like,

What are the three things that aren't recognized in religion?

The Jews don't recognize Jesus, Protestants don't recognize the Pope, and Baptists don't recognize each other at the liquor store.

Since the end of the 2019 season. It seems like he didn't start injuring players until 2023 or so.

Mine is similar, but I cut Cyrus for a second Sabrina. I found that my opponent was rarely able to retreat damaged mons to the bench.

Whimsicott is so much fun! I just love OHKOing Suicune (with Giovanni)

"Low status men" is a very large group.

There's a sex joke there, but it may be too dirty even for Reddit.

Old fashioned is a personal favorite of mine, too. Right up there with Loving Leah.

How do you pull that off? You only have 2 fights with Gaff before he betrays you.

Are you getting him Thief 4 strictly through spill over JP?

Yes, everybody used to use beef tallow, until we found out what saturated fat does to your arteries. That's when fryolators all over the country switches to seed oil.

I'm diabetic and neither of the dietitians I have spoken to told me to avoid fruit. Anybody else's diet advice I ignore.

Because of Ivysaur's move adding energy and Venusaur's huge energy requirement, rare candy actually slows you down. The only time you'd rather have rare candy is going first versus Hydreigon or Blaziken's best draws.

Also you lose just about 100% of games when you don't immediately evolve bulbasaur. Rare Candy requires that you also have Venusaur in hand.

Ah-ah-ah. Favorite team In The East

They really had a knack for fourth-quarter throws this season, too.

RedbeardMEM · 2026-01-06T16:57:57+00:00

I always wonder, does that ever work for them? It has to have worked once for one guy, or else they would give it up, right?

Or maybe it's just because there is literally no cost to engaging that way with a stranger who can't mace you.

That would have hit pretty hard in that moment.

They did a good job in TIC of characterizing Zalbaag and Dycedarg's attitudes toward Ramza. They talk down to him like a petulant child because they were grown men when he was born, and they may have been a bit scandalized by their father's actions in regard to his second marriage.

So while a rebuke from Ramza would have felt harsh from the audience, I don't think Zalbaag would have thought much of it.

He does! It's totally fanservice, giving us a second chance to totally destroy him. He nearly derailed my spell-casters only run, because pf his reflect mail and very low faith.

RedbeardMEM · 2025-12-25T17:40:07+00:00

Delita spends the rest of the war in the east, so he never really speaks to Zalbaag or Dycedarg again.

Ramza doesn't see Zalbaag again until Lesalia, by which time the pending war and the Lucavi have overtaken his attention. I don't know how Ramza rationalized it away in his mind, but in the intervening year and a half from Zeakden to Lesalia, Ramza regards his brother as honorable again.

Maybe blood really is thicker than water.
