“Εμένα, αυτά μου φαίνονται Κινέζικα.”

Let me guess Google Translate helped you there with the writing if you are a polyglot illiterate as you said yourself.

No offense intended... I figured (perhaps incorrectly) that, since Nia Vardalos (the originator of those running gags) is Greek, I would be okay posting that.

Oh It is totally Ok to post that, just that I heard that like a Milion times in my work and free time from friends and colleagues when 1 and 2 came out... That's why my reaction was like that...

Actually no. I just did a search of what the Greek equivelent of our saying was and that popped up. lol

It's definitely politically incorrect, but Nia gets away with it for obvious reasons, and it's funny as hell (IMO) in the context of the movie... kind of like Fisher Stevens' character Ben Jabituya from the 1980s movie Short Circuit, though that's much more politically incorrect, as there's no Indian/Pakistani connection to the movie that I'm aware of, and Fisher Stevens is a Jewish-American (not Indian/Pakistani)... still really funny, though.

I must have stumbled into the wrong thread, I thought this was the My Dorm thread?

I mean this seems pretty on brand.

I mean this seems pretty on brand.

I see no untruths.

We all enjoy these long conversations about tangents that go from discussing drinks to pizzas to wars and lost loves. It is in fact the charm of this thread... that and... well... Martha obviously.



Peace

Again, for emphasis...

</stream-of-consciousness-post>

We tend to do a lot of this (myself, almost exclusively).

Actually, we (or they, more accurately) typically discuss the game, along with "tangent information".

900 pages!

And that's only the new posts since I logged in yesterday!

get a spot all decked out

I'm a little verklempt from the 900 pages thing, so talk amongst yourselves for a moment. I'll give you a topic:
Spotted Dick is
(a) a poorly named British food item
(a) something that it is hard to imagine the MC not having already had at least once in this game so far

Suspension of disbelief I guess?

When will there be NTR content?
I think the company plot wasnt followed quite some time. Didnt the want to visit the island? Anyways, just a front for this trollpost...

There will be two scenes focused on it in the next update. They will solve a "small mystery" and show a bit of the company's business structure. It will also (pseudo-)schedule the visit to Aruba.

English has "it's greek to me" which is basically the same thing, if I'm understanding.

Same in Swedish. According to an article I found by a quick search it most likely comes from western Europe in the middle ages, where monks couldn't read Greek and wrote Graecum est; non legitur in their manuscripts (basically means "Too Greek, Didn't Read" ). This was later imported into both English and Swedish (among others) and became "it's greek to me". Shakespeare used it in Julius Caesar.

So, it is also the ancestor of: TL/DR

Oh how delicious... I love when this tidbits of information connect in unexpected ways, giving an extra dimension to mundane things. Like this, TL/DR and my Grand-Father favorite joke. LOL

Peace

I was, of course, making a bit of a joke. According to the article (by Dick Harrison) the Swedish translation of the Latin is "Det är grekiska, läses icke", which could be translated both as "It's Greek, will not read" and "It's Greek, cannot read". But it was too close to TL/DR to pass up the opportunity.

You know I'm a nerd with numbers. Ok, yes. A nerd. I love numbers and coincidences.
The first scene (the foursome for all of you on

paths ) has reached 4,090 renders right now. Rendered with an RTX 4090. I know. A nerdy coincidence.
For reference, the whole 0.16 (threesome with

and

, doctor visit with

, running to the lake with

, shooting lessons and lunch with

, picking up

and room stuff with

, pregnancy tests with

and

) had 3,958 renders.

Yay, there is a foursome scene with Daphne and two also-rans! I presume they are there to bring snacks and drinks to Daphne and MC so they don't have to stop and go get those for themselves...

It will be hot, fiery and everyone will create a big knot together.
