the language is fine, the spelling just needs updating. which is easy, we just pick a dialect of english and base it on that.

which dialect? well, how about indian english. that seems fair.

New Fleshlight model?

have you looked at the way dogs (especially male dogs) pick spots to pee on? i’ve always felt like i undertood. they were spots to pee on. it’s only reasonable to then pee on them.

i think there’s a bit of that mammalian nonsense working inside us, so we like picking something to piss on, or piss off of, or piss into, or whatever.

we could at least have plenty of public toilets in the freed up space

The government can not directly influence anything that is done with this money.

ok. yes, this discussion is fruitless.

so the dutch government is terrible and does not base its decisions on human rights records, but somehow the journalists funded by them are unbiased. magically.

right.

i’m not talking about the report, i’m talking about the dutch govt’s actions. you say they’re based on this report. i cant see how.

edit:
to try to explain what i’m getting at, i’m puzzled by this sentencve of yours:

Before you start bashing on it for it being biased because the TV program is government funded, a lot of Dutch politicians at the time strongly wanted to increase our trade agreements with China, this item was actively hindering that.

you’re going to have to explain how this item was hindering that and why only this item and why much worse violations of human rights committed by the netherland’s other trade partners do not hinder trade with those countries.

but again, it doesnt seem to bother either the politicians or the press when the netherlands trades with the worst offenders on the planet. and yet, in the case of china, it matters?

either the dutch are terribly inconsistent for no reason, or there’s something else in play.

or is it just me and this seems like a perfecly good explanation of their actions to you?

this seems strange to me. dutch politicians have no problems doing business with countries with awful human rights records. the absolute worst countries by this metric.

i think there has to be another reason here.

how was it hindering more trade agreements?

or a soggy cup-shaped donut with coffee soaking through it

oh sure, we could, but does it look like we’re going to any day soon?

our autonomy to gleefully assist in the holocaust? their strange trait of making us stop gleefully assisting in the holocaust? you’re gonna have to be less cryptic here.

it would defend itself if hungary decided to invade it again, and that’s just mean

we only got russians in our country the last time because we decided to be disgusting genocidal fascists and the soviets attempted to reeducate us. alas, it didnt stick.

that’ll be grand, as the russians will then retaliate by even more strikes at ukraine’s energy grid. woo yes, let the blood flow!

the good ones just invent entirely new jokes to replace the untranslatable ones.

a raw translation is a bad translation, this is trying to demonstrate translation without actually translating, using just one language, which is why it fails to demonstrate much of anything.

eg:

• original: ez egy vérgeci
• raw: this is a blood cum
• translation that carries the meaning: this person is thoroughly unpleasant and mean
• idiomatic translation: he’s a fucking asshole

Mao. Why do you think the East is Red?
