Is your cat spin-up or spin-down?

You’re absolutely right! Good catch! That was actually the emergency procedures that I overwrote.

With regard to the “elephant foot”, elephants are pachyderms and have four feet. Is there an elephant in the power plant currently? Or would you like me to tell you more about elephants and their natural habitats?

“You know old Ysgrid Steffansdottir? She died. I’ll remember her fondly. She loved seafood. Couldn’t shove enough of it in her mouth… Hold my mead, I have an idea.”

Oof… sorry. I haven’t played it in so long that I think I was playing CS:GO. It does have a certain appeal.

I also live in a third world country so most games ping is very high. But CS is popular enough that there must be local servers. Because my ping is super low in CS. Another good reason I play it.

Counter Strike 2. It’s a toxic community, but I find it oddly addictive.

My feeling exactly. Removing all incriminating evidence of certain people and pushing for their release.

Amazing. Thanks. The translators did a great job then. I remember that book where he goes to the spa and people keep poking his appendix.

That’s an awesome niche name drop. I approve.

I grew up on Asterix comics in English. The main humour is around puns. The authors are French (or Belgian, not sure). So did they write puns in French and someone translated them and made sure the comic was still funny in English? Or did they write it in English?
