射 (shoot) also means blast loads btw, so it belongs on the top row with poop and pee and butt

I once went to some cave with some ancient American Indian painting on it when I was in the Boy Scouts.

Some looked like dicks, and I joked with my Troop that I wonder if this "ancient sacred artifact sites" were actually just Paleo-Indian teenagers drawing dicks and asses on the cave walls while bored one night.

I think my theory still holds.

not worth the massive L of having to memorize thousands of symbols to read anything worthwhile instead of maybe ~80, and we could get that number down too.

I spent 7 years learning Japanese and 1 year learning Italian and I'm better at Spanish than Japanese. I have never taken Spanish.

I swear every supposed major difference between words boils down to "here we only say how are you" and "here we only say salutations"

There is also the fact that it doesn't seem possible in such languages to have a good estimation for the pronunciation of newly-encountered 'words' (lexemes? I don't remember linguistics well enough to be precise and accurate here) without looking it up or asking about it.

not worth the massive L of having to trawl through books to learn anything worthwhile when chatGPT can tell you what you want to know in ~80 words, and we could get that number down too

Showering is when you pee and poo while riding on a butt.

Ok, but why is the rainbow being held up by 2 ducks? Is that how rainbows used to work back in the day? I want my double duck rainbows back!
