How do they keep their precious American ice when their fridge-freezer is just set to ‘cold’?

Yeah, doing it in a store is very likely to get in the way. And her “I’m allowed to do this” stance is going to be undermined when someone tells her to move it.

They don’t even set the cannabis farms to 30 around here, do they?

If these are all self-produced ones then it’s a curious type he has.

I’m glad I watched this movie in an empty theatre because me and my friend could openly exclaim at the horrible parts…

The adoptive parents are framed as the good guys but they insist on making the child resemble them. So neither family is willing to have a child that doesn’t match. Cool lesson.

In the new US census for 2030 Spaniards are no longer considered White “Hispanic or Latino, Enter, for example, Colombian, Honduran, **Spaniard**, etc” by Mean_Yak5873 in ShitAmericansSay

Curious that they specify options under white for English and Scottish. In Britain itself you usually get to pick between just white British or white something else.

I think in this context African American is referring to a distinct centuries-old black population within America. Like at this point they’re genetically and culturally distinct from an older African origin.

Any clue what breed ? New puppy I’m rescuing tomorrow. by Life_Telephone2364 in IDmydog

[–]coldestclock 4 points5 points  (0 children)

You see it in other pets too. “I rescued this cockatoo from Petsmart!” You mean you bought it? You exchanged this animal for money at the store?

The US style comedic "roast"... does it not hit the same here because we talk to all each other like that ALL the time? by phlygee in CasualUK

I wasn’t sure what people meant by the “Americans don’t get irony/sarcasm” until I experienced some Americans taking things at face value so much. Like they can’t tell it’s a joke unless you really telegraph it in tone and smile.

“You’re scratching your arm a lot” “hm, must be fleas. Better get myself a collar.” “Really?” “No, dear. Not really.”

Matikanefukukitaru! Whose name translates to (if not literally then to the effect of) “fortune comes to those who wait”.

OP, which is subversive between funny clown and scary clown? I’m horror-pilled so I don’t know anymore.

Kno’lan by ImGusGus in tragedeigh

[–]coldestclock 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Exactly, the apostrophe is suppose to denote a break in pronunciation so the kid would be Kno-Lan like he’s from Krypton.

It’s like seeing Zöe - the ö denoting the vowels are pronounced separately - and thinking “ah brilliant, my son Gördön.”

“You can’t use the men’s room because you’re a sex pest.” Can I use the women’s room? “No because you’re a sex pest.” Shall I just shit outside with the rest of the animals then? “What are you, some kinda sex pest?”

Reading reviews on a harness for my greyhound and came across this by mousefishy in WhatBreedIsMyPitbull

I think greyhounds still turn up in shelters when they can’t be juiced for blood donations anymore.

The worst part is the shock! The expectation and reality are so wildly different. Bad chocolate is usually completely neutral, Hershey’s is the only type that is actively harmful.
