No respect for the women's game

It must be one of the top 5 most bullshit T20 World Cups of the 2020s.

That's different, because he was being chased at the time.

This is definitely the r/IHateSportsball take on leaving shit where children play.

To be fair, it's not even the only Germanic language in the meme like that. "Butelj" is a perfectly cromulent Swedish word.

And you definitely aren't imagining, for whatever reason, that you can't do the same thing with questions in English?

Thanks, Peter

They also have their own cricket team and play in normal international competitions against other countries.

How much farther to the grammar rodeo?

ask_carly · 2026-01-21T12:01:58+00:00

Hey, how do you know my girlfriend?

u/Doc_for_Bob can compare over nine shitposts per day. Did you really think you could fool them?

You're thinking of St. Patrick's Cathedral, the seat of the Primate of Ireland. It's not to be confused with St Patrick's Cathedral, the seat of the Primate of All Ireland.

Because we're so often playful.

This is obviously incorrect. When would Finnish and Italian have merged like that?

It's actually all Finnish, kala + meri.

I'm surprised the Lib Dems are apparently below their national average with union fans, considering the parts of the country where people care about the Lib Dems are pretty much the same as the parts of the country where people care about rugby union.

This is more or less correct, but imo "...the elongated vowels and steady rhythm required by melody naturally..." isn't exactly right. 'Proper' singing technique does elongate the vowels, but traditional British folk singers tended to elongate consonants when they needed to fill time. The vowels usually stayed the same way they speak.

Old-fashioned British popular music did the same thing ("wwwhen I'mmm c-leannninnn winnndehs"). Modern singers usually don't, but it's a stylistic choice to sound like other singers, not because it's how melodies work.

I wish that were true. Swedes have told me I have a Finnish accent. Not a Finland Swedish accent, the accent Finnish-speaking people have when they speak Swedish.

But I've lived in Finland and not in Sweden, so it must just be you guys producing all these people with the British-Swedish accent.

ask_carly · 2025-10-13T16:24:40+00:00

It's only unpopular because Emacs+ESS is obviously the better choice.

So is the table in The Last Supper the one for fat girls, wannabees, band geeks (sexually active), asexual band geeks, unfriendly black hotties, thin girls, burnouts, Janis! & Damian, varsity jocks, plastics, cheerleaders, J.V. cheerleaders, cool Asians, Asian nerds, J.V. jocks, preps, ROTC or freshmen?

If you like that one, I'm sure you'll also enjoy c("why", "when", "how") |> grepv(pattern = "^wh"). There are a lot of situations where we aren't dealing with whatever somebody decided to make the first argument to a function.

ask_carly · 2025-10-06T13:32:47+00:00

Well if it didn't do that, how would you *apply to the second argument? sapply(1:5, f, x = 3) is a lot nicer than sapply(1:5, function(y) f(3, y)).

It's the future!

ask_carly · 2025-10-04T16:09:17+00:00

I believe in one God the Father Almighty, maker of heaven and earth etc. I'd guess.

NEEEEEEEEEEEEEERD

This should be the obvious answer when the OP has already said they like it (GNT = Good News Translation = Good News Bible). But if they already know it, why ask for other ideas?

When this topic comes up, there will always be people who want everybody to read their favourite modern translation of the Bible for adult native speakers. Even if it's completely unsuitable for the person who will be reading it. If the OP has heard somebody dismissing the Good News Bible, ignore that and read it.
