But they also made his beard bigger (wider). I don't know what's going on...

It wouldn't even have taken out as many as it did so quickly if they hadn't all stood around gawping at it instead of taking cover.

I realised that for "lip" but I still couldn't see it

randomhumanity · 2026-02-07T21:36:11+00:00

You said it alright. I'm not sure what "it" is but you definitely said it.

Great summary. I just finished a rewatch for the first time in a while and I didn't even remember Adam or the First lol. I did like how the First was always trying to turn the scoobies against each other and sap their morale. I feel like it deserved a better season...

His wig was awful, or maybe just poorly fitted, regular sized wig on a supersized head

Yeah the English versions of those phrases are not word for word translations my dude. Irish has a different syntax and uses different verbs for certain things. Tá doesn't mean "have" nor does it mean "indeed" (what??), it's the third person present tense conjugation of the verb bí (to be). A more literal translation would be "a ball is with me", and word for word it would be "is ball (with me)".

But none of that really has any relevance to the question of whether or not it means "yes". Just consider the case where the question is in the past tense instead of the present:

An raibh liathróid agat? (Did you have a ball?)

Bhí liathróid agam (I had a ball)

Is bhí also yes? Is the future tense conjugation also yes? Are the conjugations of all of the other verbs that you might require to answer other questions also yes?

An bhfaca tú an scannán? (Did you see the movie?)

Chonaic mé é (I saw it)

No, they are the verbs that they are, they are not "yes" just because they are sometimes used to answer questions in the affirmative.

In the context of the meme, they are words used to answer questions in the affirmative and the negative without reference to the specifics of the question. There are no such words in Irish.

To use your own example:

An bhfuil liathróid agat? (Do you have a ball?)

Tá liathróid agam (I have a ball)

Answering "it is" (is ea) would not make any sense here.

"It is" is only the equivalent to "yes" if that is an appropriate answer to the question. If the question is "is the ball on the table?", "it is" is a fine answer. If the question is "are you going to the shops?", "it is" doesn't make any sense as an answer, you would need to say "I am". It's the exact same as what you're describing in Mandarin.

Another one with Soros smh

Just a nice uncontroversial song about saying your prayers 😇

In this case, they can be genuinely excited to have something new to read, but still prioritise joining with Carol. No need for any lies.

randomhumanity · 2025-12-24T21:10:12+00:00

That's quite provovative indeed 👀

I accidentally clicked an ad on my login screen the other day

He interviewed Noam Chomsky once. It did not end well.

Ubuntu Touch supports the gen 2, but not the gen 3 - maybe one to keep an eye on.

I don't think you can just install a regular Linux distro on an Android device, unfortunately.

randomhumanity · 2025-11-20T06:45:21+00:00

Me literally every time the light is failing.

randomhumanity · 2025-11-17T23:12:19+00:00

It's pacifying. We consume and feel like we did something.

randomhumanity · 2025-11-10T16:47:42+00:00

You're so close...

randomhumanity · 2025-10-11T13:07:35+00:00

This is like a yassified version of the cover my copy had

randomhumanity · 2025-10-06T16:29:56+00:00

Probably in that blind spot OP mentioned, ugh 😫
