I once entered an extremely far back yet technically plausible birthday there and steam just wouldn’t accept it. I remember thinking “what if Kane Tanaka wanted to check out this steam game, you just wouldn’t let her?” (RIP by the way, she was the last oldest person whose name I learned. They change too often)

Knowing the answer to some of history’s biggest mysteries, because you were there, but being unable to speak about them because, 1, that would expose you, 2, nobody would believe you either way because nobody expects you to be THAT old.

IDK, I feel like researching for supporting evidence of a theory you already know is correct would be much easier than researching to try to piece together a theory from no information. I think you could put the truth out there as credible and well-regarded theories, even if there are incorrect alternative theories that people also have to consider.

I definitely heard the phrase before the show came out.

No you absolutely did not, unless you were talking to dorks who started using out-of-context nonsensical phrases from their favorite fantasy book. If you think you heard the term not as a reference to ASOIAF you are misremembering. Its origins do not go back to the 1800s. The term in this context refers to a child who has lived their entire life in the years-long summers of the world of ASOIAF. That is what it means.

Uh, no. Can’t you read? These are not people. They are Russian cybercriminals

Me. I’ll play Wilson. Listen idk what the fuck that last guy was doing but my take on this character is gonna be a hit, you’ll see

It comes from racist car customization slang, yes.

Of course! Thanks for being cool. It always sucks to learn a term you’ve been using has a shitty meaning you didn’t intend, and some people react to that realization quite poorly as we can see below lol

Please enjoy your ban whenever a mod sees this.

What exactly is it that people obsess over? The ricing?

Please refrain from using racist terms. Here’s a good thread about it.

The coating just keeps water from ‘sticking’ to it or from soaking in to cloth etc. it doesn’t do anything special aside from that, you’d just have a normal bucket of water in this case

I’m 1, and no, not really. But that’s more for ethical reasons.

i love hearing about this kinda thing, im sure your kid will be glad to have grown up this way once she’s got the hang of it :)

because “itter” does not share any sounds with “federated” the way “eddit” does

Point to where I said “we know they don’t let people in because they’re isolationist”.

Sure! It was right here.

The restrictions for leaving and entering have not been imposed on them externally, this attitude of Korea predates even the Roman empire

Anyway, we’re at an impasse here. You’ve decided that the DPRK is not a distinct country and that all you need to know about their laws can be extrapolated from the ancient history of the Korean peninsula, and that anything modern which contradicts your juvenile interpretation of ancient history must simply be made up. I have no idea what species of brainworm is responsible for this ridiculous conspiracy theory, and I am not qualified to exterminate it.

You linked two things. One of these is an article about literal ancient history, and the other is an article about three Christians who all lived and died long before the country we’re discussing existed. Please, please explain to me how your “sources” are in any way relevant to the topic at hand.

Your circular logic is as follows: The DPRK is isolationist. We know it’s isolationist because they don’t let people in. We know they don’t let people in because they’re isolationist. No, I won’t pay any attention to the hard fact that they do, in fact, let people in, and that it is in fact their enemies who do not let people into their country.

you have some very strange, very incorrect ideas about the DPRK built on a foundation of circular logic. please start de-propagandizing yourself with that video i linked earlier, it’s a very good one.

we are having a conversation about a country which has existed for less than 100 years why the fuck are you talking about the roman empire and the joseon dynasty

Apologies if my semantics/grammar are too loose

your grammar is fine, it is the content of your posts which is utterly useless.

sources
Wikipedia

The restrictions for leaving and entering have not been imposed on them externally, this attitude of Korea predates even the Roman empire so external factors wouldn’t have been possible as a cause

come back when you can form a coherent thought

I say that, I’m going by every regular source that ever existed

“regular source”

its near-impossible standards for leaving or entering

did you know these are imposed on them externally? their policy is that they love tourists. here’s a video of a couple of australian tourists enjoying themselves there. the reason americans can’t go there is because the US forbids it.

its lack of internet access (who here has seen anyone who is actually from North Korea),

it’s a country under brutal siege for its entire history. yes, they’re poor. whose fault is that?

North Korea has the world’s worst human rights

You understand propaganda like a fish understands water
