Good point, pic of JK Rowling would fit there I’d say.

I assume these are mostly just bad/impossible translation of finer nuances from the Japanese.
- Comment on Today's Survey. One point for everything that you have NEVER DONE 3 days ago:
Yeah I score 0 but quite a few of these are more “because there was an old one there and I felt like trying it out” rather than because I needed to use them daily.

Wasn’t that the case for like, all landlines?..

I can technically count myself one point, but that’s only because we didn’t have blockbusters in France (but I did rent VHS from other places)…

The best time to plant a tree for shade in your garden was 30 years ago. The second best time is today.
- Comment on Marine Le Pen banned from running for French president after embezzling EU funds 4 days ago:
You talk like this is a tactic from her political opponents and whether it’s an efficient tactic or not, but it’s just the justice system following their procedure, that’s it. Whether it’ll help the far right or not is irrelevant.

- Comment on Ninja sword owners will be paid to surrender weapons before ban 1 week ago:
I’m all for friendly ribbing, just a bit tired of this particular one because I saw it used in unsavoury ways too many times. Just spreading a bit of awareness about it, I could tell you weren’t being mean or actually using this as a xenophobic argument, but others before you have.
- Comment on Ninja sword owners will be paid to surrender weapons before ban 1 week ago:
Playing devil’s advocate, chainsaws are used for cutting trees and other tasks, they are not inherently a weapon unlike a sword (these are similar arguments to the ones used about gun control). I do find it silly to ban weeb swords, but mostly because I don’t think they’re ever really used for crimes? Or did I miss some info about a wave of ninja murders in the UK?
- Comment on Ninja sword owners will be paid to surrender weapons before ban 1 week ago:
This “joke” has been co-opted by xenophobic conservative Americans so often that I really struggle to appreciate it, even when you use it rather innocently like here. I’m not even a Brit and have grown quite tired of it. It comes from the same bag as cheese eating surrender monkeys for the French.

Man at least get your stereotypes right, the squirrel eaters are in Québec, we barely have them in Europe.

Ouuuh I didn’t know Costa Rica had cheap dental, might be a good excuse to visit again, I really loved that place.
I’m European but still in a similar situation, I have the house but getting my teeth fixed here would cost me like 10k€+, fuck that… The usual recommended destinations are Romania, Turkey, some other ones, but since I’m not only too cheap to get them fixed but also really scared of dental work due to the extreme pain I’ve experienced in the past both in and out of the chair, the idea of going on a trip to a foreign country for it is fucking terrifying. I’m also missing way more than 2 and what’s left isn’t exactly pristine either…
