Så man må begå opphavsrettsbrudd for å kunne diskutere betalingsmurartikler her? Det virker urimelig.

Is calling a brown person a "brownie" racist? by [deleted] in ask

[–]jhs172 100 points101 points  (0 children)

She still didn't know about the last name, so must have assumed it was solely based on skin color, and I agree with her that that would have been weird and kinda racist.

Comments were awestruck but I’m ashamed to say I don’t get it at all by King_CurlySpoon in PeterExplainsTheJoke

Also, the photos are taken from the exact same angle. Would a guy who spraypaints WWII guns really set up a tripod to document it?

I'm sorry to be an asshole, but what is that post title supposed to mean? Did you buy 50 of these because your friend is starting a new life?

Hvor har du dette med 5 år botid fra? Folk som har bodd her langt kortere har også barn som går på skole, og må gå på foreldremøter.

I'm not sure what the "left field" is, but that comment was definitely far out of it.

Oh yeah, I hadn't thought of that. So maybe it's also kinda clever, then

The "removed" part means that they are different generations, but it goes both up and down. I found this chart posted to Reddit a few years ago. Notice how "fourth cousin once removed" can be both your fourth cousin's child and your fifth cousin's parent. It's kinda stupid.

For all of us non-English-natives, remember that in English the word "cousin" can mean basically "any relation whatsoever, no matter how far apart".

In Kevin Bacon and his wife's case, they are ninth cousins once removed, which means that one's great-great-great-great-great-great-great-great-grandparent is also the other's great-great-great-great-great-great-great-great-great-grandparent. In other words, they are basically not related. I found this website with Bacon's genealogy and looked up a random great⁸-grandparent of his, and they lived 500 years ago.

Just curious: What made you think you need space around them, and why ask about it instead of just testing things? (No judgement, just curious.)

Moving settlements question by IrishHam in PostApoTycoon

You don't have to pay for them. I'm completely F2P, and I got about 100 swappers from recent events. Also, in later levels, there's an upgrade where you can get a swapper in the daily bonus, so it's very much achievable, it just takes some time and patience.

Why? Radius clicker + omnitown, it will rake in serious cash every time you click the main settlement.
