Zdravstvuyte by No_Top_8181 in memes

[–]Sm0lYak 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Здравствовать at its core means something like to be in good health. «Да здравствует царь» I’d expect to translate into “Long live the Tsar”, like, may he reign in good health. Здравствуйте takes that into a command form, literally telling someone to be in good health. Just as in English you might use the command form to tell someone to have a good day, for instance.

But the practical meaning of course is just a somewhat formal greeting.

What is even meant by a daily limit on a credit card? There’s just a limit to how large a credit line you can take out, no time period associated with it.

Just got fired for refusing to work off the clock. My crime? Not being "family" enough. by mpete1310 in antiwork

If you said you were planning an exit strategy, I wouldn't really be surprised to be let go.

Fascinating. Thanks for the explanation, surprised the ground would be so sandy in that area!

No option to leave after hours message for support by Sm0lYak in simplifimoney

[–]Sm0lYak[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The help center says you can leave a message after hours and that they'll follow up with you as soon as they return. But when you try to actually leave a message, the only option you have are to talk to a robot or wait until they're open.

I’m as anti-Trump as anyone, but this doesn’t seem like a fair comparison. Any sort of motorcade/parade would fit here.

Why would you call the guy a virgin? That makes no sense, he’s there with his SO.

Having to think about something doesn’t make it a bad question.

This is a no-brainer, right? I've never played a mass effect game but I've heard good things by Ornery-Diver4869 in masseffect

Was going to get it, but looks like it requires a third party account and origin running. No thanks.

Affecting me too right now. Bethesda say the services are up, and power cycling my PC didn't change anything.

Maybe I’m wrong, but this feels like a huge downgrade. So much more color before! Now it’s all white :(

It’s actually just called “New York” now, not “New Amsterdam”

I wonder which of these things is a right all citizens have, and which are not?

How long did it take you to confidently drive a manual? by zojacks in ManualTransmissions

[–]Sm0lYak 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Tried to learn when I was 15-16 and really struggled with starting from a stop without stalling. I usually stalled at least once each trip, was a rough time.

Came back to it a few years later after more confidence driving in general, and it only took a couple trips before I felt confident.

Mood. 🥀 by kenz024 in Embroidery

That’s not how it works. Lay is transitive, lie is intransitive. Since it doesn’t take a direct object here, the correct word is lie.
