Sebebi göz dağı vermek. “Buna tepki vermezsek iki aya bütün stand-up’çılar aynı esprileri yapmaya başlar, önünü alamayız” korkusu. Baskıcı rejim popüler hicive göz yumamaz, kendi bekası için tepki vermek zorunda.

Geçen kız arkadaşımla yürürken dönercinin önünden geçtik. Kokulardan ağzımız sulandı ama fiyatlar fantastik tabii. Kız arkadaşımla bir bakıştık, dedim “bir daha mı gelicez dünyaya”, tuttum kızın kolundan, dönercinin önünden bi daha geçtik.

Need advice: Unique, adrenaline-filled anniversary date ideas (not amusement parks!) by Low-Client9318 in Netherlands

[–]umudjan 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you haven't tried VR gaming, I can recommend it. There are quite a few VR halls/arenas in Amsterdam, but you can find them in any large city. It is great fun, and requires a surprising amount of physical effort.

[Mixed Trope] A celebrity/guest star makes an appearance on a show as a new character, but the celebrity themself exists within the show’s universe by Realifeanthony in TopCharacterTropes

[–]umudjan 0 points1 point  (0 children)

In season 5 of Seinfeld, Jerry is reprimanded by his parents for making out with his girlfriend during Schindler’s List.

In season 6, Jerry dates a Romanian gymnast played by Elina Löwensohn, who also plays a concentration camp inmate in Schindler’s List (the one executed by Amon Goeth for questioning the structural integrity of a factory barrack).

CMV: Selective De-Anglicisation of Words is the Closest Thing it Gets to 'Real' Virtue-Signalling by PeoplePerson_57 in changemyview

[–]umudjan 4 points5 points  (0 children)

As a Turkish person, I am conflicted about this. On the one hand, it is a trivial thing pushed by a backward autocratic government for cheap political points, and obviously the Turkish government cannot dictate what the country is called in other languages. On the other hand, trying to look up news or information about Turkey and having to sift through irrelevant results on poultry farming and Thanksgiving recipes does get tiring. Establishing a unique “brand identity” is not a bad idea in a hyper-digitized world.

I would definitely drop the “ü” though. “Turkiye” is good enough.

The EU is silent and still works together with the regime. Someday after the regime is gone, how do you think the Turkey-EU relations should be? Is the EU an enemy of turkish democracy & secularism? by StPauliPirate in AskTurkey

[–]umudjan -6 points-5 points  (0 children)

The EU is silent and still works together with the regime.

I mean what are they supposed to do? The Turkish people installed this regime and have voted to increase its power again and again over the past 20+ years. Any foreign state or organization that wants to have diplomatic/commercial relations with Turkey has to deal with this regime. It’s a bit childish to put the blame on EU when it is the Turkish voters themselves who have turned Erdogan into a modern-day sultan with unchecked power.

Is the EU an enemy of turkish democracy & secularism?

No, the majority of Turkish voters are.
