They’re way more dangerous. The last time I was in a helicopter, the pilot kept trying to get us over a mountain ridge, but the low air density at that elevation kept causing the blades to be ineffective and would drop us. After a handful of tries, he gave up, and we went around.

I’ll probably never fly in one again.

How have I missed this news??

(actually, I don’t know whether to be excited or to dread this)

Now that you mention it, maybe the kids should be telling the closest police officer about the “sexy puppeteer”…

Damn you, I was in a ranked game!

Everything related to the internet was so unserious and fun.

A blacklist for words is such a lazy solution, lol.

I remember back in the old days of Westwood, their online games had a strict list of bannable words, and it was always fun to bait people into using them with seemingly innocent questions. “Hey, I’m doing a history report on WWII, does anyone know the name of the leader of the SS? Himm-something?”

Some poor schmuck: “You mean Himmler?”

<SYSTEM> User “Poor Schmuck” has been banned for 6 hours.

So much old school Onion was brutal like this, lol.

Wait until you see what kind of crazy controls we’re using in 2070.

Ah, that clears it up a lot…

Oh! That could’ve been my mistake. I typed ö with the dots instead of ő with the little lines. Thanks

I’m reading now that the ő suffix makes it refer to a person?

This is so interesting and also so overwhelming, lol. Thank you. I remember you (I think) mentioning to look out for the endings of words before.

I’ve heard of some other languages doing something similar. For example, I’ve been trying to learn a bit of Danish recently, and they’ll sometimes tack on an -et to the end of a word to say “the”. I know German is supposed to be a language where you can frequently combine a bunch of words, but I’m not exactly sure how it works. Languages are fun.

It does look like an early one, but so far it’s been rare to find a source with print dates for individual strips.

If I’m honest, it really feels like a LOT of media got suddenly worse some time in the 2010s in general. TV, movies, big budget games - I know enshittification is a thing in every industry, but it feels like there was a major quality drop in such a short period of time.

There are obviously some exceptions, but it’s like a switch was flipped, and my interest was gone. GoT was one that carried on for a while, but then it succumbed to it too.

Ha, this is exactly the one I had in mind with my comment. I’ve re-watched it many times.

I’m the absolute worst at hearing lyrics, but I like this band’s sound!

If you’ve ever looked closely at a crow’s feathers, they have a bit of a sheen to them.

Ha, seriously! I was proud of myself for guessing that Könyve probably meant book, because I remembered translating Könyv from this one a few weeks back:

Me, trying not to talk about star trek in every unrelated thread:
