<Vore Vidal> It seems that speakers of Maltese came to feel that all loan verbs must have an initial geminate consonant,whether or not this was actually true of the item being borrowed.This state of affairs manifests itself rather spectacularly in more recent borrowings from English (Type D verbs), in which initial consonants are duly geminated (despite this never being the case in the English source items), but which also fall into the conjugation class of weak-final verbs, as in ddawnlowdja ‘to down-load’.

<Barsuga> Orassos : her ass is that fat

<Barsuga> Also I've just had a horrible realization
<Barsuga> if they remake Back to the Future, it will happen in the 2020's, and Marty will have to go back to the 90's
<pharazon> cowabunga man
<Barsuga> Doc will get plutonium from ISIS
<Barsuga> And marty will be the DJ at his parent's party
<Barsuga> He will play some eurobeat or something
<Barsuga> And there will be a scene
<Barsuga> "Who's the president
<Barsuga> "Donald Trump"
<Barsuga> "Ah!"
<Barsuga> what a silly notion

<tiramisu> also to be fair to the Jews who killed my one great-grandfather
<tiramisu> that great-grandfather had a Hitlerstache when he was killed

<barsuga> You know I wish nowadays christians were more into believing magic
<barsuga> They always try to justify how the stories make sense even with science
<barsuga> Just tell me that god did it with magic
<barsuga> It's a more cogent argument

<@pharazon> But
<@pharazon> Isn’t it at least a LITTLE surprising that the odds of two random integers having no common factor is 6/pi^2
<Smaug> sorry, I am just a primitive
<Smaug> I found a rock that looks a little like a face today and now I worship it

<@Cev> John Conway died

<Barsuga> "The gospel of Matthew claims that Jesus was taken to Egypt as an infant, this was actually used by hostile sources to explain his knowledge of magic; according to one rabbinical story, he came back tattooed with spells"
<@Cev> That happens to all tourists who visit Egypt.
<Barsuga> I mean why else visit Egypt
<Barsuga> It's like visiting Thailand, you immediatly know why they went

<@Cev> Do they still add stuff to the vatican archives
<@Cev> Does a secretary have to carry a box of papers down and throw it on the pile?
<barsuga> I guess so
<barsuga> What else would they do with their office supply bills and papal bullae
<barsuga> Do you think it's a mess in there like
<barsuga> Ancient scrolls next to floppy disks

<Barsuga> I can think of republican food and green party food, but what is libertarian food
<Barsuga> Do they just sprinkle cocaine on food

<Whimemsz> so my parents just got back from Australia
<Whimemsz> apparently one person asked them "is it true you Yanks have the water go the other way in your toilets?"
<Whimemsz> and another person asked them, in all seriousness, if the sun rose in the east or the west in America


<Legion> new study reveals everything ever bad for you
<twabs> new study reveals that all of existence is suffering
<twabs> and that only by following the eightfold path can one achieve nirvana
<twabs> etc
<Legion> study paid for by Big Karma


<Legion> my favorite projection is dymaxion
<Barsuga> My favorite type of projection is ascribing my own flaws to others
<Legion> shouldn't you say that's someone else's favorite then


<Radius> ah nice, almond is cognate to amygdala
