where does this apparently omnipresent desire to put a comma after the subject in a sentence come from? i see it in english and german
in reply to wayfinder

I’ve seen ot called ‘boomer comma’ in English, but haven’t found any discussion of the phenomenon. For German, there’s this blog post: derzwiebel.wordpress.com/2022/…. I’m not sure we’re talking about the same comma position, though


(dt.) Heiratsschwindler = (spa.) mariposa
(dt.) Telefonhörer = (ital.) amore
(engl.) teetotaler = (dt.) Kanone
(dt.) Imker = (ital.) carabinieri

Von Waschen und Trommeln
Ein Gedicht

Die WaMa war schon immer schlecht,
Doch wird es immer schlimmer, echt.
Drum hab ich für Verband gesorgt,
Drei neue beim Versand geborgt.

Die Shirts, die ich beim Testen wasche,
Kenn' ich wie meine Westentasche.
So weiß ich welches Modell gut war
Und bei welchem ich vor Wut gar'.

Auch wenn's Maschinchen leise schaut,
Sind die Dinger scheise laut!
Was sie aus meinen Stücken rein'jen,
Lässt Nachbarn meinen Rücken stein'jen.

Doch das entlockt mir massig Lachen,
Das bin nicht ich, das lass' ich machen!
Ergebnis in Kartei gepackt,
Auf and're Mietpartei gekackt.

ich habe gerade erfahren, dass "MTB" die abkürzung für "mountainbike" ist, und frage mich seitdem mal wieder, wofür das T steht (ähnlich wie beim RTW schon mal - da war es eingefügt, weil "RW" schon vergeben war.)

wenn es das t in "mountain" sein soll, dann müsste es doch eigentlich "MtB" geschrieben werden, oder?

Mt. Ainbike, das ist der Berg auf dem die ersten Downhill-Rennen veranstaltet wurden
in reply to wayfinder

Ich denke, hier spielt die Assonanz zu »ATB« (all-terrain bike) und »ATV« (all-terrain vehicle) eine Rolle

in reply to wayfinder

das tut mir leid. Ich hatte mal einen Twitteraccount mit Fotos von Hermes-Paketshops, da sind mir manchmal Beschwerden in die DMs geslidet.


"shudder" is just a shorter way to say "calm your tits"


don't like these always-attached bottle caps. when i pour, the cap slides down and the liquid starts to pour into the cap instead of where i am aiming; when i drink, the cap gets me in the chin or in the nose. and as a final fuck you, it takes a lot longer to find the right position to screw it back on than one that you had in your hand in the correct orientation while you were drinking or pouring

the ones i was fighting with when I wrote the post were these:

with this type, most commonly, one or both of the connections will break the first time you tilt the cap into its "open" position.

and even if they don't break, they'll be flimsy enough and deformed enough that the ring slides around



cw: a funny butt

lately, most videos on youtube from creators with more than like a thousand subscribers will have the first couple of comments be from spambots that say something like "your channel is so wholesome! this content is giving live 👏 i am excited to see what you'll talk about next!" and then it has just a full frame of butt as its profile picture.

but you know what, i don't mind! i just think of them as dorothy in one of my favorite pictures of all time:

so this serial ponzi-like thing where people build hype but tank a company, create a new one and hype that to pay off the previous failure's refunds, debts, etc., then tank it, move on to the next, ... does that have a name that actually gets to the predatory nature of the pattern and doesn't glorify it as entrepreneurship?

I've been wondering this too. I hear 'pump & dump' and 'leveraged buyout' a lot, but those feel... incomplete and imperfect in these situations.
in reply to cathos

i suppose the leveraged buyout is kindof the opposite side of the tech startup thing where they build a company fast on loads of debt, hoping to be bought out and liquidated.

i just had the stupidest idea for impractical footwear, and i'm wondering if anything like that already exists:

the floatshoe

basically, a ring for your calf to sit in, possibly with a sort of funnel or straps to more evenly spread the weight, mounted on struts that connect to a "sole", so that your feet hang in the air freely as you walk

reshared this

in reply to wayfinder

Hm. Problem I see with this is the lack of forward stabilization that feet provide. Plus you introduce an additional pivot point. I would imagine that walking in these devices will prove to be quite difficult.
I'm curious - what's the use case?
