Preußisch Blau

Thanks for the inspo, I really ought to stop.

Yeah, it hasn’t bit me yet, but I know it will. Sometimes I feel like it’s the only way I can fall asleep, though :c

Strategic use of pillows to create an air gap.

C, but face-down.

So true, take edibles instead. Think of your lungs people.

We are more of a divine being, because only humans do religion. Our tongue is more holy, because we created words for holiness. [|B-)

Didn’t say it was.

I would assume it’s moreso about their being fat, which fits in with the idea of making fun of someone who spends too much time online.

Not to say it isn’t also about beauty, nor am I commenting upon whether or not they’d get as many comments about their appearance were they men, for the record.

Hey, don’t assume how high someone’s bar is!

Switzerland is not in the EU, just fyi.

Americans will do anything other than buy an electric kettle.

Who said I’d still have toes?

Agreed. Funnily I’m from a more temperate country and she’s from where I’m at now, but she’s the one that is always cold and wants to keep it at ~22. I ain’t gonna argue considering she pays the electricity bill, though.

It’s gonna get down to -30°C this week, I’ll turn the heat off and just throw on the good ol’ toque and a sweater and report back, assuming I still have fingers.

More like [ˈd̪ät̪ä], no long vowel.

That’s my B, I was looking at Ecclesiastical Latin for that one :3

Interesting points though, thanks for the elaboration. Shows the layers of silliness that is depending upon other languages for the way we pronounce words.

Your science teacher was wrong, unfortunately. In Classical Latin, datum is pronounced as [ˈd̪ät̪ʊ̃ˑ] “dah-too(m)” and likewise data as [ˈd̪äːt̪ä] [ˈd̪ät̪ä] “dah-tah.”

Not that Latin should really have a say in how we speak English anyhow.
