Ana can mean "hole" in Japanese (穴), so if you pronounce it like that it means you like to talk about guys' holes.

But only for those that keep to the speed limits. Plenty of people drove at 80-100 KPH when I commuted by car.

Yes. I spent some time living in northern Kanto, which is famous for its car dependancy, and absolutely everyone drove 20-40 KPH above the limit. Sixty KPH (which is generally the highest speed limit outside of highways) is equivalent to around 37 MPH, so I don't blame them.

エミュレーター 違法 is now only the 4th auto-complete suggestion. The first is エミューレーターとは (What is an emulator?) I guess there's been a sudden surge of lawlessness in Japan.

Have you ever talked to a doctor about it? One to two hours is quite extreme, and would probably be classified as a sleep disorder.

I've had problems getting to sleep most of my life, but it generally took me around 30 minutes most nights. I eventually developed really bad insomnia in my mid-30s and got diagnosed with sleep apnea a few years ago. My poor sleep was possibly causing spikes of cortisol during the day that made it difficult for me to get to sleep.

I would have thought chomping on a dry ass cone would be more of a Ben Shapiro thing.

"Just a cone" sounds like a cone with no ice cream to me, so yes, that sounds weird to me.

I'm surprised they didn't take offense at the label "black tea" and claim that it's anti-white erasure by the woke mob.

Imagine being such a simp for corporate interests that you actually watch and pay attention to ads.

They renamed it "Captain Supermarket". I assumed this was a shitpost, but I confirmed through Japanese Wikipedia that it's the real title. Does the movie have anything to do with supermarkets? I've never seen it.

They didn't even say they were a Chinese national. There are plenty of native Chinese speakers in Hong Kong, Taiwan, Singapore, and many other countries.

"Stiff breeze" sounds kinda gay.

 

I discovered what appears to be the only bar in my current country of residence that specializes in Peruvian pisco in December 2022. At first I went just to try a pisco sour, which I've long been interested in. After getting the chance to revisit it over the holidays, I experimented with different varieties and ways of serving it, and realized a short tonic is my favorite way to drink it without masking its natural flavor.

Previously, I mainly enjoyed cocktails and didn't have any particular favorite spirit, so this is all very new to me. Should I be taking every opportunity I can to inform people of my fondness for pisco and how my refined tastes are beyond the comprehension of the plebs who enjoy lesser drinks like beer, wine, or vodka? Just how far should I go? Am I now required to be a dick to Chileans and go out of my way to remind them that their pisco is shit, an opinion that I certainly have come to after extensive research and experimentation to form my own judgement, and am absolutely not parroting from opinionated reply guys? Are there any gender studies scholars who can help me with this?

 
 

Climate change is making the Middle East uninhabitable. This can only lead to two different outcomes for the state of Israel. We will either see a second holocaust by Israelis choosing to remain in their unsafe homeland, or their citizens will have no choice but to flee and once again be dispersed among other states, undermining the Jewish people’s right to self-determination.

Do not be fooled by so called pro-Israeli American Jewish conservatives who receive funding from fossil fuel companies. There’s a very good reason Ben Shapiro defends Israel from the comparative safety of America, all while enabling the fossil fuel industry to bring about the downfall of the Jewish state. He knows exactly what he’s doing.

 
 

I used to think human rights were unconditional, but then someone told me that Palestinians are actually homophobic, so as any rational person capable of critical thinking and nuanced thought would do, I abandoned all of my values and pivoted to support for apartheid.

They made an excellent point, namely that I should support the murder and displacement of homophobes, which is why I propose the following.

Every queer person in North America will come together and form a milita. I'll assume George Soros will pay for everything. For your first mission, you'll take over the state of Florida. I have it on good authority from Conservatives that the US military has gone woke, so I expect them to cooperate with you.

To any Floridians reading this, you have 24 hours to leave before you are crushed under the high heels of the Pink Army. You brought this on yourself by voting for Ron Desantis. Do not resist. Bigots deserve bombs. Anyone who is opposed to this is a homophobe who supports Hamas and is literally worse than Hitler.

QUEER PEOPLE HAVE A RIGHT TO DEFEND THEMSELVES!
