Ray doesn’t really cuss Lola - he’s just a bit surprised / disappointed that the pretty girl is… not physically a girl. It was probably a bit of an eye opener for a dude that only left home a week before. That’s how I’ve always understood it…

For a guy in 1970 it’s pretty accepting I reckon.

The UK has an ice hockey league - not sure how many natives are in the teams though. Hockey is massive in (parts of) India - but they tend to play the version without ice…

It’s worth pointing out that users of Apple Maps in different countries will get different answers…

They are different words with one “f” and two “ff”s Kafir isn’t offensive. The other word is.

I don’t know know if it works in your part of the world but I’ve always enjoyed variants on the old classic:

I know someone who’s Polish.

Who’s that?

Mr. Sheen

Long and complicated story… which I don’t really want to even touch upon or think about. Suffice it to say that the mods (a mod?) took the original community somewhere else (.world) but all (most) of the users stayed here on Blahaj.

Use whatever community on whatever instance you enjoy the most.

Hungry Jack’s using their best Aussie voice when telling Khamenei that they ain’t seen no Burger King around these parts…

Uh, no. That’s not the case in reality. Whether you love, hate or just simply use Apple products they have undeniable longevity.

One of the best ways to understand this is to imagine a multi-storey car park. Concrete exterior walls, support pillars and wide open spaces. Now imagine it being a hotel. All the internal walls and ceilings could go anywhere. What you need is sound/heat insulation and somewhere to hide all your pipes and cables.

Quick, clean and crisp-looking are big concerns from the constructor and operators’ point of view. Whatever methods and materials work best will tend to become industry standard.

Yeah, probably. Maybe they are the flames of hell, or symbolic of the MAGA movement scorching USian norms, or the fire of hate burning out of control etc.

It can mean what you want it to mean.

Or you can just look at it and go: “Ha ha. Funny.”

Quick heads-up to anyone actually planning on committing a potentially illegal act: Do not put it down in writing on a publicly accessible forum next to your name and image.
