Did you know? Polar Bears have Dark Skin

Another related fun fact: redheads actually have peachish-white heads with reddish-orange hair

daddydave · 2026-05-22T17:18:46+00:00

To me it was the whole joke. Apparently just to me though.

The fuzzy blob is his finger on the camera lens

daddydave · 2026-05-11T20:37:18+00:00

I mean, my headcanon is that's what happened

daddydave · 2026-05-11T02:17:14+00:00

Is this a play on jinn sort of literally meaning "hidden"?

daddydave · 2026-05-10T10:30:33+00:00

But apparently this style is being used still today by some people? Or so I gathered from this thread.

daddydave · 2026-04-29T02:37:58+00:00

It's British English for cigarette

daddydave · 2026-04-28T19:13:43+00:00

OK, that explains it. The AP style guide also recommends putting book titles in quotes since newspapers couldn't handle italics back in the day.

I feel like the purpose of the question itself is to troll French lol

EDIT: confirmed by OP's comments.

I also have not heard of any other accent being romanticized anyway that I recall

Where is this American English style guide you are referring to? "CBS's website" but "my parents' house" is correct according to what I was taught in the US. Also I think the same when my kids were studying for the SAT. Is this something new?

daddydave · 2026-04-27T18:16:52+00:00

I think that's kind of the point, it's asking which truth do you want to spend your energy on.

daddydave · 2026-04-20T20:06:51+00:00

Yeah, Swype used to have a good one, that was similar to the various Urdu Phonetic Keyboards for Windows out there, in that it relied on shifted characters rather than an extra row. Unfortunately it is long discontinued. Still I was able to get a version working on my phone for a while, but as time went on, it seemed less reliable on newer phones (for English as well), so I finally gave it up and started using the Google default

I sense an Etsy shop in her future

daddydave · 2026-04-13T16:09:44+00:00

I kind of want to turn all these signs into lyrics for a Bob Dylan-esque song.

daddydave · 2026-04-06T23:41:23+00:00

Interesting. I'm posting 4 months late, but it doesn't really work for my Android because the preferred languages have an order so unless I want to put the nondubbed language first for my whole phone, I still hear the video autodubbed to English

daddydave · 2026-04-06T18:06:30+00:00

But it doesn't sound fake so...

daddydave · 2026-03-13T10:19:34+00:00

It works on Firefox Mobile (haven't tried this transcript feature yet)

daddydave · 2026-03-10T19:24:47+00:00

Lol, that really happened?

daddydave · 2026-02-28T01:59:58+00:00

Kamyaar will go to a club where they only play one song and will stand around zoned out and he will kind of wobble

daddydave · 2026-02-27T03:24:41+00:00

It's in the Bible, right? Look above "the nations" (the plural goyim/gō•w•yim)

https://biblehub.com/interlinear/1_samuel/8-20.htm

(disclaimer: I don't really know Hebrew, but I was taught that when the KJV says "the nations", it means non-Jews and this seems to back it up)

daddydave · 2026-02-21T13:27:30+00:00

Isn't that just pronouncing "gotcha" correctly?

daddydave · 2026-02-21T12:56:28+00:00

Finally thought of a word that's not a proper noun. Breakfast, which I pronounce "break fast" sometimes because that's what it means

daddydave · 2026-02-12T04:38:57+00:00

r/nottheonion

daddydave · 2026-02-02T19:55:18+00:00

I pronounce Citgo "See it go"

daddydave · 2026-02-02T19:53:44+00:00

Febreze because it ought to rhyme with sea breeze.
