"You and I" is also the proper "ordering" for English. As for "donkey" - I think in the US we simply use "ass" (we love dual meanings), but "donkey" also pops up, though I think it may be moreso for British English than US (well, I've heard Gordon Ramsay use it often enough..."speaking" of someone who has a tendency to be an ass :LOL:). I suppose it could be used regionally, but it isn't something you hear around my way. Considering how hard working of a beast a donkey is, at least in a farming community, it might be more likely to be held in reverence, so long as it isn't stubborn as a mule. ;)


Since this arrived while I was posting.... Another oddity of English: the word is spelled "rhyme". Don't ask - I didn't make the rules! :ROFLMAO:

And rhyming is fun because it has rhythm. ;)

Just had to throw that in - they both use that "rhy" and both evoke a "lyrical/musical" feel.
Ohh big thank you ! and also for the "bridge" I as so often wrote again Spanglish :ROFLMAO: :ROFLMAO: :ROFLMAO: rhyme = rima in Spanish
funny detail : the "bridge" is called "Eselsbrücke" in German (lit. Donkeybridge; although applying the new learnd coloquialism "Assbridge" :ROFLMAO::ROFLMAO::ROFLMAO::ROFLMAO:

Since Trope is on (or was), I had also just finished the Day 21 scene with Norah and had observations - yeah, one was grammar. :LOL: "Speaking" of grammar, if Olivia had been an English teacher, instead of "Meemaw" they could have called her "Grammar". Yeah, yeah, groan all you like. :sneaky:

The last is first:

I know - you want to give people a choice, but I think, given MC's nature, he might have come up with this, and told her "With a 'ph' because you are always pretty, hot and tempting to me!" So, keeping the nickname, but giving it new meaning. ;)

Or ,in this universe, did that arrogant Austrian try to change American colloquialisms along with measures and mores? :p

Trop probably went and changed it after I proofread it. :ROFLMAO:
j/k I do the proofreading but I'm only human. I miss some of them, some of the time.
In the last few companies I worked for (independent now), I was usually the guy they gave things to AFTER everyone else said it was perfect - business & legal stuff. And, yeah - they all hated me. :LOL:

Though, if I had been the first proofreader and handed it off to someone else, they would have found things as well - just the nature of the beast. And I did always have a couple of folks that I gave my own stuff to after doing two or three reads of it myself, and usually had something come back to me. ;)

And, for JayDub47: I used it. Of course, it isn't part of a string and is a slightly different grammatical context. :ROFLMAO:

Props for being able to focus on grammer during a Nora scene.

Regardless of region, "donkey" tends to be used more than "ass" by fans of a particular movie franchise named after it's green-skinned protagonist ...

Damn, right I forgot totally ! sounds even better in spanish, since it rimes
which I always wondered why in Spanish this kind of sayings rime.
I guess the Donkey is associated in all cultures unfairly as dumb (actually they are smarter than horses or dogs) :D
They rhyme in Spanish because it's easier to remember them that way. Remember we have our brains fried by too much sun :ROFLMAO: .

I do hear ass used more often than donkey, but I have heard donkey used often enough in the US. Probably a regional thing.
Donkey has been making its way into English with that meaning since the 80s. A game with a gorilla and some barrels is to blame. Miyamoto named his game Donkey Kong because, in Japanese, it also has the "dumb" connotation, but when it made its way into the US, no one caught the meaning.

Oh you know my ex mother in law ?? :ROFLMAO: :ROFLMAO: :ROFLMAO: :ROFLMAO:
That's another typo. It's monster-in-law :ROFLMAO:

Ok - while I usually can't fault the boob physics and general animation too much...

I tried a newly bought asset that gave boobs gravity (dforce in Daz). The result wasn't as natural as I intended.

Are you getting daft? We are WRITING not talking.
A. Is that more of that "sarcasm" you spoke of?? :unsure:
B. Wait. Are you saying you guys can't hear me when I'm talking to you?? :eek:
I....I...I can't read ......:cry::(
You were warned it would make you go blind if you didn't ease off. No one to blame but yourself.
I do hear ass
I usually smell it myself. But I guess with some of the pizzas y'all be eating... Probably sounds pretty "amphibious" too, I'm guessing. :sick:
Trop probably went and changed it after I proofread it. :ROFLMAO:
j/k I do the proofreading but I'm only human. I miss some of them, some of the time.
I'm not surprised, considering you didn't even catch that you misspelled "black" in your username. :ROFLMAO:
