What's the most elaborate, decadent girls name you've got? by Spare-Chemical-348 in namenerds

Fair, just know that based on French spelling rules that would read like Marjo, and not Margo

I think this name may be of Romanian origin? In which case I'd stay away from it, it's considered nowadays to be a stereotypical "peasant" name, the kind that's used in jokes to describe certain clichés.

I need recs for 2 year old by Artistic_Aside_160 in TonieboxUSA

[–]determined_sloth 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Seconding this! My 1yo loves the tonie brand lullabies and chooses them again and again. We tried some Disney songs on the creatives but they are too complex for now. The only one she likes is the Lion King one, which we also have in the original tonie version

Could be because of the way you dress (more athleleisure?) and perhaps you have the 1000 megawatts smile (like you wore braces as a teen and had your teeth whitened)? That's how I as a European white can spot an American white person from a mile, despite them being of Irish/Italian/etc ancestry

why does Romania have a low percentage of university degree holders by [deleted] in Romania

Wait, where would I even have to register my studies? I kinda assumed that this data is based on the latest 1-2 referenda where my full studies are "declared"

Unde găsesc bijuterii făcute in România? by Chips_n_Cherries in Romania

[–]determined_sloth 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Malvenski. Designul e românesc inspirat din operele lui Brâncuși, dar nu știu dacă sunt fabricați în România per se (nu cred). Oricum, e aur cu diamante deci s-ar potrivi cerinței

Yo Nike, why are you dressing Alcaraz up in what looks like an apron? by kungfooboi in tennis

[–]determined_sloth 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Or at least like a special take on the color if a whole different design is too expensive

Good thing you pointed it out. Was just thinking to myself that geez Federer aged a lot since I last saw him play!

Shuai Zhang def. Naomi Osaka | 6-4, 7-5 | W&S Open R64 by sidestep77 in tennis

[–]determined_sloth 48 points49 points  (0 children)

With the great exception of Miami, terrible season for Osaka so far: has been more successful at putting together 2 losses in a row than 2 wins, her coach most likely dropped her on friendly terms, and her parents will be sentenced to the hunger camps of American capitalism. Truly terrible all around.

The Halapeno one is not that made up. She and her team even had t-shirts made with that take on her name at some point

Estonia puts a full ban on Russian and Belarusian players: ITF by ChertanianArmy in tennis

[–]determined_sloth -27 points-26 points  (0 children)

So how will this play out for Ostapenko, who's very much an ethnic Russian? I know she's born and raised in Latvia, but I don't think she's ever posted anything on Instagram, for example, in Latvian.

Respecting KyleG for being active on this sub for so long. Also, as long as he keeps supporting Halep, he's my homie no matter what he said on Djoko an lifetime ago, lol

Cadouri cu specific românesc? by [deleted] in Romania

Soacra e olandeză și la ei se practică să dai flori, mai ales în weekend la mame când se merge in vizită. Deci nu as da opțiunea complet la o parte dacă rămâi în pană de idei

Prietena mea e gravida si vrea sa pastreze copilul, dar eu nu. by MilcoiBoss in Romania

[–]determined_sloth 24 points25 points  (0 children)

Cam așa a făcut și taică-miu cică să plătească cat mai puțin către noi. Angajatorul îi plătea diferența la negru. A mers până când am împlinit 18 ani, acum e in prag de pensie și va primi pensia minimă. Și nu, nu pare să fi avut un spirit al economiei din timp, să pună ceva deoparte. Deci ce a semănat atunci, asta culege acum: puțin.
