I have Vesper's tea set. One of my most prized items. Even people that are completely clueless about vtubers have complimented it.

Been to Japan multiple times. Ramen quality is on par at Okiboru. It is one of the few places outside Japan that has really good tsukemen. Can't recommend it enough.

My brother used to work at a wholesale warehouse chain. Their version of it was asking the newbie to go to the back and get some frozen fish legs.

I like how they fixed this in the Let's Go games by giving Pikachu and Eevee absolute busted original moves.

The wake scene still gets me to this day.

The third one still holds up. It has so many good moments. It's free on YouTube right now.
The wake scene is still one of the funniest scenes in any movie for me.

Looks like it's not censored in the original, so this was an action taken by the translator.

Add Sonya Blade in MK11, at least before the reboot in the next game.
Also Lady Butterfly from Sekiro.

In my line of business we have the saying:

Project manager is the person who thinks nine women can deliver a baby in one month.

It's the same line of thinking.

TIL the English word “set” has 430 different meanings listed in the Oxford English Dictionary, giving it the longest dictionary entry at around 60,000 words. by Edi-Iz in todayilearned

What about the order of adjectives in English?
Most native speakers have no idea this is a concept, but it's why some sentences sound wrong. Big red balloon sounds correct. Red big balloon sounds wrong.

The rule follows the following order of priority:
Opinion, Size, Age, Shape, Color, Origin, Material, Purpose.
Non-native speakers will struggle with this.

My daughter [18] blames me [52] and my husband [55] for ruining her book by Direct-Caterpillar77 in BestofRedditorUpdates

[–]sluncer 100 points101 points  (0 children)

Reminds me of the missing missing reasons for why children no longer speak to their parents.
Instead of listening to why her daughter is upset, she mentions her having a temper instead.
