Remember
Honk if you honk all you
If anything at me I will honk honk
If you get any closer u have to
Honk if you will if I honk myself want
Honk if you have ever been
Personally victimized by honk

If you want a more accurate translation/explanation of the lyircs: Hast and hasst are homophones. Hast means have and hasst means hate. At the start, it sounds like it's "du hasst mich" (you hate me,) because the alternative doesn't make sense. But then when gefragt is added, the past tense of ask, it becomes "you have asked me."

"Und ich hab nichts gesagt" means "and I said nothing." Nein should be translated to no, but otherwise it's pretty much just wedding vows. That translation is not literal, but that's to be expected for songs.

Personally, I care more about the volume of ice cream I eat than the mass. I don't want to pay more for more calories when diminishing marginal utility is already in effect.

That's what it's called, okay. I didn't remember the term.

That looks like Gandalf. It's not Gandalf, right?

"Please adjust your brightness so this shape is barely visible."

Nah, I'm cranking that way up. I get that there's an art, but I'd rather not be straining my eyes and ears.

It's a slur, that's why. Some slurs are major slurs that are considered offensive even when it's not referring to someone, and I think this is one of them. They're often forbidden because of it, and a lot of people find it easier to follow universal rules than to check the rules of each place they post, because the universal rules will keep you in the clear 95% of the time. And even if not, it's still respectable to not want to use slurs.

And yeah, it did used to be a lot more common. And before that, it was a medical term. That's the way it goes, we have a word to insult people's intelligence, doctors deal with patients who have a disorder causing that, they don't want to use the mean word to refer to the patients, they come up with a new word for it, the word gets out, and then everyone makes it a new word to insult intelligence. Though this one seems to be taking a different track because it hit modern sensibilities, and at the same time I think doctors now know better than to come up with a new word for mental deficiencies.

Or whatever people think is the most powerful, at least. It's worth noting that the meta can often be wrong, and if you play what you enjoy, you might find yourself discovering something stronger.

Tales of Vesperia. I like the combat system most, but the story's pretty good, and there's a lot of optional content.

Lemmy can have its fair share of echo chamber syndrome. For example, almost nobody here vocally likes Reddit, and if you post anything pro-Reddit, it's likely to be met with a lot of negativity. I'm anti-Reddit too, for the record, but it's good to acknowledge tribalism even when you agree with the tribe. But the nice part is Lemmy can't have competing echo chambers nearly as easily as Reddit can because we're so much smaller.

I meant as a post, not a comment, but nice.
