I mean, Mademoiselle Cochonne would be her own special kind of lady.

Do you change the emphasis? da-ko-TANT?

Canada’s Brightest Ditch-Digger

Isn’t that backwards? In my family it’s no scatological topics while people are eating.

" … and no identifiable tattoos."

No. The Latin ending -ium designates that something comes from a place. Like, magnesium was originally found in Magnesia. Aluminia is not a place. It’s name is derived from the Latin word ‘alumen’ for aluminum oxide.

This is what happens when you let people read the Bible in English.

Yes! First time I had hot pot was with a couple of exchange students. This was one of their dipping sauce ingredients. I’ve never been able to find it on my own. What’s it called? I’d take a shot at making it myself. Also, what’s the red stuff that goes in the sauce? I thought it was maybe fermented tofu. I’m pretty sure I’ve found that, but all of it has weird food coloring in it. I find I have to keep a lot of chemicals out of my food.

I couldn’t catch it either, but yeah, that’s rough. Definitely a step above “shut up”.

Yeah, the artwork is good, but it is a miss in terms of solarpunk. It’s like re-skinned Mad Max, or Battletech.

That was my first response: who has the money for cereal in this economy? I tell you what, Mr. Kellogg, if it’s breakfast for dinner it’s going to be toast or porridge. I’m certainly not overpaying for glorified dried, smashed frozen corn.

Ooh … Jacket on top of kimono! I haven’t seen that one before. Did I miss something, or is AI mashing up modern and classic Japan?

Oooh baby, it feels right.

Why is he holding a flamethrower? Does the AI think firefighters are pyromaniacs?

Amen, brother or sister.

Another EGG?! Where the FUCK do these keep coming from?

I’m a poultrologist, and you should all be aware that this kills the chicken.

How about hands in pockets? IIRC Anzac slang for pockets was “Yankee gloves”.

You know, it’s kind of like this with land. Laws around Adverse Possession (Squatter’s Rights) are basically the legal framework for taking possession of land when someone has so much land or are so absentee that you can use it without them noticing. Generally, if you you can use their land openly and they don’t challenge you, after a set period it’s yours.

Don’t know how this would work with money, but it’s interesting that you can legally take someone’s property if they have too much to manage it properly and you need it.
