Missed opportunity for Yuluigi

I don’t know who that is (maybe if I saw a picture) so I’m not a fanboy, I’m downvoting you for the weird, subjective, and objectifying post.

I’ve considered getting an electric one to blow all the dust out of my shop/warehouse, but I can’t justify the cost. I need a good shop/push broom and Japan doesn’t seem to like those (at least anywhere that I’ve looked).

ough has something like 8 different pronunciations in English. Good luck!~

We could have if things were a little different. I’m not sure about Old Norse nor Old English, but Modern German does change Haus to Häuser (that äu is pronounced kinda like ‘oi’) and presumably it was quite similar in (at least some varieties of) Old English.

why does anyone need them?

In some, especially rural, areas, the charger infrastructure probably isn’t there and public transit isn’t viable in all cases. I’m thinking of industries like farming, forestry, etc. That said, that’s probably a fairly tiny portion of overall ICE usage for normal vehicles (I’m assuming construction equipment, tractors, etc. aren’t included in this).

I think it might also be financially difficult in some cases where people really do need a car (thinking rural life again, here), but are living on a very tight budget. That could also potentially be handled with subsidies and such, but I don’t know how that would practically work.

That’s so outdated… I guess they’re just full of old people

If you actually voted, you’d know that and, if desired, could do something about that. So many people here don’t vote.

I use the inanimate verb for being, so I’m going to go with neither

Thou doughnut. Thou Ohio toilet. A pox upon thy rizz. May thine aura either.

How many times do we have to tell them to stop trying to clone Yggdrasil. Is pando not enough?!

Me: not quite two a day seems a bit low…

I had at least one quest which, when certain choices were made, would not complete. They never fixed it, but did release a cash-grab level-cap-increasing version later. Left a bad taste in my mouth. (There were other bugs and issues I faced that also never got fixed, but I don’t recall what they were anymore). I mostly did enjoy the game, otherwise, and the size was fine in my opinion.

There’s still a fair bit of sugar in everything. I think trans-fats are also still in use here unless that changed recently.

I don’t know of any restaurant here that does that, but sometimes bars and such throw parties for their regulars, and they’re kinda like that. A few grill, there’s drinks, people talk and hang out, etc.

In Tokyo? Country House? If so, I’ve been, heh.

If it was a chain and had free refills at a drink bar, it might have been Johnathon’s https://www.skylark.co.jp/en/jonathan/menu/index.html

There are a bunch of other one-off places as well.

Columbus, OH had a gay western bar one that turned into the goth club by the time I first went there.

healthy food like many Japanese diets do

Wanna explain what that is? Because obesity is on the rise here and people day-to-day are just eating konbini (convenience store) pre-packaged stuff laden with fried food and instant noodles.

American living in Japan here and I grill weekly on my Weber over charcoal. When I lived in Texas, we grilled whenever we could, basically. In the midwest, my grandparents had a Jenair for when the weather was bad and grilled at least once a week. They were rich, though, so there’s that.

There are a couple of “real” BBQ places, but none that I know of that would have sufficient lawn for lawn chairs. There are plenty of grill-your-own places here, most of which are Korean-style BBQ, but some of which let you grill other things. As I think about it, I don’t think I’ve seen the type of lawn chair (like oven “fabric” style) that I was used to here; it’s all just plastic molded chairs these days.
