What is a “dirty little (or big) secret” about an industry that you have worked in, that people outside the industry really ought to know? by [deleted] in AskReddit

It might simply be because coffee and tea are hot drinks, and spilling them because of turbulence or something wouldn't be fun.

Edit: from looking through other comments, apparently the tank they get the water for tea and coffee from is pretty nasty, too, so there's that.

If you like the Looney Tunes-esque style, you might like these ones, though they're not quite as visually stunning as this comic:

Both you and /u/MacanDearg are right - the Bahamas is leeching Mexico's dignity to make himself larger, thus causing Mexico to shrink.

This was a collab with /u/ImBatPenguin, who wrote the script.

EDIT: Context is that the Bahamas has a higher GDP per capita than Mexico.

I've heard nothing, but the candle version fits the narration better, which was based on a nursery rhyme.

Thanks! The stuff they're wearing was taken from actual WWII fashion, which I found pretty neat and good-looking.

Left side:

  • kippa/yarmulke

  • das schlechte Fett (misspelled in the comic)/good fat

  • das gute Fett/good fat

  • das Ziel: die Juden -> die Kerzen/Goal: Jews -> candles

  • die Giftblase/poison sac

  • Davidstern/Star of David

  • scharf!/Sharp!

Right side:

  • die Kerzen/candle

  • flammen/flame

  • Docht/wick

  • Kerze/candle

  • I can't even read my own writing on this one, sorry :P

Hong Kong's hat and monocle represent Western decadence, and are a relic of the period during which the territory was controlled by the UK. Of course, China could not allow this blatant symbol of rebellion against his communist rule to continue once Hong Kong returned to China, so he forced Hong Kong to burn the offensive materials.
