Just buy a new sink after you unclogged it.

The first sentence still makes sense with the typo in place.

And it's all because they are germanic languages (at least old English is), and this is the same in German (vier und zwanzig).

While we're at it, make every name start with the surname. I understand why the majority of countries/languages start names with the forename, but finding people in a list of names is just so much easier when they are naturally called Swift Taylor and DeVito Danny.

Around 1789 it wasn't as common as today.

The bottom left is in arse-ON mode.

I can also imagine this happens when you get to ten, then the algorithm sees the increment over nine, modifies the offset, and then at ten you delete one tab, but the algorithm doesn't expect you to downgrade from double digits and keeps the offset designed for double digits.

I bet at least one person can play her. Now we just need to find out if she's a wind instrument or a percussion one.

The e at the end of the word makes the previous syllable longer. See saxophone/mastodon, Brightstone/Brighton, trampoline/mandolin, etc.

I BET there are a buttload of exceptions, but removing the e from the end of those words might mess with the pronunciation.

Did it use to be tight?

You should be happy you never do. Let's not find out.

And an 'e'. In case you meant Scheiße (shit), or maybe Schieße, as in, 'ich schieße (I shoot).

Every single time, it reminds me of this short, dumb joke:

Announcer in the supermarket: "Achtung, Achtung! A German kid went missing."

He exhales much more air (therefore droplets contaminated with covid) much faster, covering a much larger area with it, and guess who has to run straight into his lung cloud.

They say it's safer outdoors because it dissipates easily, and after a short while the concentration drops to safe levels. But not when the very next instant you run straight into it with your mouth open, inhaling.

This is why I hated when people used to form dense lines outdoors, taking off their mask because it's not required outside. Like you couldn't still micro(macro?)spit someone in the face as you talk or even breathe.

It's interesting, in my language we seldom use it as 'orange', most of the time it's orangeyellow.

To be fair, most of the time we use the 'other' red for stuff that is also expressed by a different word in other languages, such as Spanish: wine (vino rojo tinto / piros vörös bor), hair (pelo rojo rubio / piros vörös haj) and maybe paint/clothes or literature. Other times it's just the 'default' red (piros).

I think they're just joking that the French word for red differs from the Swedish word for red, therefore stating that Swedish and French have different words for red (because the French red and the Swedish red are not the same).

To be fair, I wanted to make the same stupid joke and I'm relieved that I don't have to now.

I made a very simple HTML page to count the money for my work. I've tried everything and I ended up hosting it just to be able to access it from Firefox. It might work with Android, I don't know, but on this internet aids MIUI it's impossible. But MIUI is just some pimped Android so chances are it's the same.

I managed to open it locally in chrome (spits), but the URL didn't even say the usual file path but some sus looking mi.com address, so I'll stick with just hosting it.
