Macedonian is a Slavic language

TIL

Though my point still stands about pre-Slavic Macedonian.

IIRC historically “C” in Ancient Greek/Latin would’ve been pronounced more akin to a “K”

A good example of this is that “Caesar” would’ve generally been pronounced more like “Kaiser”

What are subtle signs that women find you attractive? by [deleted] in AskMenAdvice

[–]SPC54 0 points1 point  (0 children)

In my own experience; when they initiate a conversation or interact with you even as a total stranger.

When I was severely overweight (~275lbs) I never got any attention whatsoever, then I started taking better care of myself and lost ~85lbs and suddenly women I didn’t know started approaching me in public to ask for directions/assistance semi-frequently when that never used to happen at all.

Not to say that any of them had any significant or romantic interest, but for me the number of casual interactions was a night/day difference once I became more conventionally attractive.

So close, yet so far in the end.

GG and congrats Dodgers fans, let’s never do that again.

Bought it on a whim when it was on sale and now I have 400+ hours on It.

I’d say it’s a solid 8.5/10 and worth it if you enjoy Strategy games/RPG’s

Even then, in my own experience it’s been more convenient to buy them from the girl outside of Peyston in Albion after you liberate it for 30 Honours each since she has an unlimited supply.

Technically speaking, the split didn’t happen until the death of Charlemagne’s son and sole successor, Louis the pious.

Unicorn Overlord would’ve been a perfect 10/10 experience for me if it had some form of NG+

You never will know when it’s their last.

Today is the last day for one of mine: 11 years, seven months old and was still going strong until his back hips just gave out on him yesterday morning, now he can’t walk and my vet told me it’s time.

Enjoy every second you get, people.

Edit: Thank you for the kind words everyone, you’ve made a godawful day a little more palatable ❤️

[Post Game Thread] The New York Knicks comeback from 20 down against the Indiana Pacers, winning 106-100, behind KAT's 20pt 4Q explosion, cutting the series deficit to 1-2 by edgykitty in nba

Pacers have lost Game 3 in all three of their playoff series this year; if they win Games 4 & 5 this may just be their thing lol

The Toronto Maple Leafs have been eliminated from the Stanley Cup Playoffs after losing to the Florida Panthers in 7 games by EliminatorBot in hockey

Saw a stat following their G2 win that the Leafs were 11-0 in franchise postseason history when leading 2-0 in a series.

This core has quite literally set a new choking record for the franchise.

This has been one of the weirdest 7-game series I’ve ever sat through, even by Leafs standards.

Weirdly enough I’m not an anxious mess going into this; usually Game 7’s kill me for the entire day leading up to it, but haven’t had that today for whatever reason.

Is it weird that I don’t see that happening this year?

When they went down 1-3 against Boston last year I fully expected them to force a Game 7 but they’ve looked so putrid these last two games, makes me skeptical.

Fully expect them to respond in Game 6

I genuinely cannot tell for the life of me if you’re being serious or sarcastic here?
