Yeah it seems native english speakers(mainly my fellow muricans) are baffled by the pronunciation of the french "r".
It took me practicing it for a while to finally understand how to properly pronounce it, but I'm still ashamed to use it in public for fear of being mocked by both french and english speakers alike. LOL.
This pretty much sums up my view of contractors. I know enough about home improvement these days, after years of DIY, I could probably get a job as a subcontractor.
No this is another housing bubble, similar to what happened back in 2010. My house is now worth more than double what I paid for it, which is more than it was at the peak of the housing bubble right before it crashed back in 2010.
But biggest difference this time around is the bubble has been intentionally accelerated by a handful of investment firms that have been buying up all the houses across the US for the past decade.
I have learned thru my years of gardening that wasps and hornets are a good thing to have around, not just bees. Not only do they help pollinate flowers, they are predators to some of the most annoying garden pests. I think I've counted at least 7 different wasp species in my garden this summer, they've done a great job keeping the larger pest populations manageable.
I quit my 20+ year career as a sysadmin about 2 years ago and started turning my backyard into a massive garden. I'm currently trying to figure out places to sell large quantities of hot peppers and I'm about to start selling matted and framed photos of flowers and wildlife from my garden.
I've been working on not saying "Google it" for quite a while. After saying it for over a fucking decade, its a hard habit to break. But I'm finally getting used to saying just "Look it up"
I saw one of those stupid motherfuckers driving thru my neighborhood the other day. That was the first time I had seen one in person and I have to say it was the ugliest piece of shit I had ever seen. All I could do was laugh at the dumbass behind the wheel for wasting their money on that monstrosity.
Also, am I the only one who remembers the old flash game from like a decade ago with a "cybertruck" that looks exactly like this that you bounced around the screen to kill enemies? I'm going on a mission to find that shit now.
I have to say that I was not a fan of her performance as JJ. While there were some episodes that definitely showed her acting chops, she is not cut out to play a superhero IMO. Most of her actions scenes across the series were painful to watch.
While you joke, that shit really is sort of stupid and has become so overused its cliche. Hollywood seems to think that breaking sound barrier is the only way to show their hero is flying really fast.
Yeah I just got an invite as well and I haven't logged in since the protest that brought the first wave of us here. So karma has to be a deciding factor, I had over 100k I think so that would be the only reason I got an invite.
