HIS NAME IS YAM ARE YOU FUCKING KIDDINF ME

the japanese “-ne?” particle and the british slang term “innit” serve the same function

Standard English: It’s cold, isn’t it?

Japanese: Samui desu ne?

British: It’s fuckin’ freezin’, innit?

i have to do everything around here

i hate this cause i did japanese for like a year and this explains the use of the -ne particle WAYYYY better than my teachers ever did. it took me ages to comprehend what this post makes abundantly clear.

my teachers: its like a, a little rise at the end of a sentence, to show that you are seeking a response, while not warranting the -ka particle which would make it a proper question.

me: ok. i guess i get that??

this post: its like saying “innit?” 

me: oh. oh no.

fun fact: afaik, "-ne" was inherited from the Portuguese settlers/priests that stayed in Japan in the 16th century. It comes from "né?", which the contraction of "não é?", "isn't it?".

It's LITERALLY "innit".

oh so like "eh" in canadian

I make perfumes that smell like blood, phlegm, black bile, and yellow bile. They're not very good yet, but I'm trying to improve my scents of humor.

Before the cost of living crisis gets any worse someone needs to just snap & restart the Whiteboys

HES FOR THE ACEAROS. not only is there no canon possibility with the only characters being his siblings and their romantic interests, HES IMPOSSIBLE TO SELF INSERT TO LMAO. is he in love with a teenager? CANT. is he in love with a wonderful mature woman? cool, THAT WOMAN CANT BE ETHICALLY INTERESTED IN HIM BACK. there IS an unethically interested woman who DID know him as an adult man briefly but sadly shes a dommy mommy authority figure and Five is barely holding himself from biting her entire head off at any given moment. lovely. its just him and his insanity and his imaginary wife. literally me

Amazing news!! They reached their goal of 100,000 USD! There is now a second goal of 250,000 USD! Remember, this is 373 games, assets, and comics for a minimum of 8 USD- a bundle of items which would normally be ~1,667 USD! Let's reach that second goal as quickly as we reached the first goal!

Fantastic news!!! The 250,000 USD goal has been met, and there is now a third goal of 500,000 USD! The deadline has also been extended, and as of the time I'm writing this update, there is 13 more days to reach their newest goal!

The money raised so far has already been incredible. Let's maintain this energy and continue to provide support for the PCRF!

millennials:

I am fairly sure there are other explanatory factors for a dropping life expectancy, such as skyrocketing obesity rates and no one exercising enough. There’s not much evidence that increases in the quantity of working hours is linked to a dropping life expectancy.

it’s also funny that u would imply that people not getting enough exercise is in no way linked to people working longer hours
