honestly, why are isekai protagonists always so obsessed with getting "home"? like, i'm sorry, but if i just showed up in a world where like. magic and monsters and all that cool stuff were REAL. yeah, no, this is my home now. sorry family and friends, but i'm not giving up living in a world with DRAGONS to work a nine-to-five just to still not be able to afford rent
i’m sorry but this is the greatest set of replies that has ever been on a post
Our household is trying to stop using Amazon as much as we can, and also when we do order something, we call it “sucking daddy bezos’ dick,” as in “I’m sucking daddy bezos’ dick and need ten more dollars for free shipping, does anyone else need something?” And can I say. It has in fact had a remarkably chilling effect on my habit of just going to Amazon first.

ok, yes. gōnghé, which is…an abbreviation for “industrial cooperative”? Like it was just a term for a worker-run organization? A specific U.S. marine stationed in China interpreted it as a motivational slogan about teamwork, and as a commander he got his whole battalion using it, and other U.S. marines found those guys so exhausting that it migrated into English slang with the meaning “overly enthusiastic”.
