Human urine was collected and used for many things (mostly the ammonia). Human feces was used as fertilizer in a lot of the world until very recent times and collected in certain areas.

I started learning German from my dad’s Jr. Highschool book from the 1960s but had no one around who spoke German. My pronunciation was… interesting (even trying to mimic what the guide was telling me in the front of the book). When I finally tried to speak to people, it was also funny to learn that several things were quite out-of-date (Feder vs Kuli I think was one).

I definitely prefer the original. The layering and orchestration is better and more complex (but not too complex). I prefer Rezner’s voice in that as well. I don’t hate Cash’s version, but I don’t love it.

wrong

Incorrectly

Technologically, it does feel like that sometimes, but it would seem not.

In my case, I’d probably be OK having studied French and German (and reading things by Chaucer and Gauer). Though French != Norman French, so that may cause some issues.

Heh, that’s specifically why I qualified it as ‘position on earth’.

I hate the way it sounds but, at the same time, it is simpler and more regular.

It is really easy to mess up and end up on the Ambassador Bridge. I did it going to the Japanese consulate in Detroit but, luckily, there is a little u-turn place if you notice quickly enough (or at least was… and I’m not sure how legal that u-turn was, but I’m sure they see it all the time).

He’s not doing it alone. The Republic administration and all its enablers, corporate and private from money and votes, is endorsing this behavior.

You could dust each side lightly with starch of flour while still cold and fry in oil and that might hold together (and be quite crispy). Worst case, you may need to toss the noodles in the starch/flour, shape, and chill again first.

If I snapped you back in time 650 years

2025 - 650 =1375

Its the 12th century

1375 is the 14th century. Which do you mean?

Answering the actual question, nothing good would come of it if my location on earth didn’t change. Being the only white person in rural northern Japan well before Europeans came in the 1500s would probably not be a good situation for me. The language, at least the written one, was very different. Being the Nanboku-chō era, things would probably be not great since it was in the midst of 60ish years of war with two different people claiming to be in charge. I can’t find, at least before my coffee kicks in, exactly what kinda state Mutsu Province, as it was then called, was in at the time.

I’m in my mid-40s and grew up mostly around central Ohio and don’t remember hearing it.

I put coffee grounds in the french press and cover with newr-boiling water (~90c) which agitates and mixes things. 5 minutes or so later, I just pour my first cup

Ok, so … I suppose it is what is says on the tin? Someone whose avatar is a cow (I assumed it was some specific genre or something less literal)? Is the content cow-related somehow? I still have many questions.

There is a lot of American pork (and some beef) in supermarkets here in Japan. I get mine from Costco which, at least for loins, is Canadian pork. Beef, of the non-wagyuu variety, tends to be Australian or American. Chicken is typically domestic in my experience.

I speak Japanese and, at least for all the words I’m thinking of for both cow and vagina, none come out to awesome unless it’s some net slang that I don’t know. Cow could by Gyuu or Ushi. Vagina is often mata, man, or manko (all of which could have a preceding ‘o’) (edit: also chitsu and wagina (probably by way of Dutch originally), apparently also exist.) Those might possibly work better, especially wagina with the -na ending common to a type of adjective)

Awesome is a bit trickier. Subarashii is usually the dictionary one, but Sogoi/sugei or saikou come to mind. Archaic rippaa also exists. If that’s true, my vote is on net slang or just something I’m totally not seeing.

Edit: after filling my search history with interesting things, it appears it’s Chinese and not Japanese. “niubi”.

I would argue it depends upon the buzzing device, but bzzz for all of them is indeed arbitrary. Even IPA doesn’t represent sounds that humans can’t produce, so it wouldn’t suffice, but them’s the breaks.

I’m not seeing it there on any of the three pages (nor ctrl+f for ‘animal’ on the first at least)

I have bamboo on the back corner of my property (two different types) and let me tell you that it is a never-ending war to keep it as a fairly thin line (it’s basically my privacy fence). On the plus side, it’s really good at holding the ground together, supposedly, which helps living in earthquakeland.
