Some Spanish speaking countries also use "polla" (same etymology) to talk about a pool, a collective bet, and so on. While in other countries it just straight up means cock (as in male genitalia). Funnily enough, "cock" also shares the same etymology. It all goes back to chickens, roosters and hens.
Holy shit. 15-18 hour shifts aren't uncommon at all where I'm from. No wonder we placed well below Japan on work-life balance statistics.
The fact that there are places where people legitimately only work 8 hours a day is kind of mind blowing, thinking about it.
It's probably both if we're being honest. A lot of services definitely don't want bots. But they also want to take as much of your personal info as possible.
Lol props for remembering the percussion positions. I have to read them every single time because I always forget.
Arguably, though, friki is more about the media and entertainment the person consumes than about them being smart.
That's pretty clever, actually. Props to them for the smart campaign.
That is legitimately how a lot of criminal gangs operate. They wage wars with each other in the night and usually avoid messing with civilians. These groups tend to have a bit of a Messiah complex and try to portray themselves as heroes that will protect civilians from other groups, the government or whatever other threat. It's very common with narco cartels as well.
Fairly good. A B D E is a kind of ambiguous chord with a double suspension. It has an open and pleasant sound in my opinion.
The best you're going to get is anecdotal evidence at most.
I think universally, arrogance is very much frowned upon, and a lot of intelligent (and not so intelligent) people use their self-perceived intelligence to put others down. So you're going to find a lot of words for arrogant, pedantic or annoying people. But insults for just smart or academically talented people are indeed rare outside of English. At least in my experience.
Same thing in (some variants of) Spanish. You have ñoño, someone who is always trying to outperform the others academically, usually it's those who make a huge effort without seeing proportional results for it.
But we have very few insults for intellectual or smart people. Practically none I can think of.
I don't think you're supposed to have your opinion swayed by what teens think but it is important to know what they think because they reflect future trends and ideals.
I called you Satan, cause when we were skating you would make the metal sign.
Fucking amazing music all around.
