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'm in my early 20's and I just changed my iPhone for a Pixel, actually. Got fed up with a lot of the Apple crap, and the Pixel looked sick. Then again, I'm not American and I don't use SMS anymore, so no one I talk to would ever know what OS I'm using.
The fact that Americans still use SMS is fucking bizarre. It's like the Japanese still using fax in this day and age for some reason
My PayPal account. Though I believe my undergrad thesis project may be another option from another perspective.
Truly a classic if we're being honest. A lot of this artist's images are iconic at this point. Iconic in shitposting
The movie is awesome, but it gets me down thinking about how many shitty toy "but with grown-up humour" movies we're going to get after this, just because now every studio in the world is going to join the bandwagon.
Holy shit, your country is deranged
I kind of agree that remote working every single day gets very socially deprived very quickly. Although the office isn’t a place for socialising, not having anyone to talk to day in day out at work drives me a bit mad.
But I also think 90% of the time, working from home is better. Maybe a hybrid model where you only go to the office once or maximum twice a week or something could work for most people. The introverts and the extroverts reaching a compromise.
Yeah my office rents a WeWork space downtown and we only go there a couple days every few weeks. I like it, it’s a change of pace.
What? That’s absolutely incorrect. Cities are the number one most sought after and thriving alternative, especially among young people.
Maybe cities in the US, but that’s because they’re mostly poorly designed parking lots for suburbanites.
Cities are certainly not dying anywhere else on Earth wtf.
That’s good to hear! I wanted the Coral 7a but they only had it in sky blue, so I got that one, which also looks pretty good.
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.
