I would've been more shocked if they didn't rehire him. It was inevitable. Look at who he is. They get forgiven for being turds constantly. It's the default.

Re: How was your day?

Sweet. I'm glad the womens league is getting so much exposure. The picture thing is a bit ridiculous. It's a great shot, some people just need to grow up and stop being creeps. I hope they make it easier for you to watch and keep up with.

Are the Maple Leafs a hockey team? I like watching hockey but we don't see much of it.

Lmao. Harsh but true. But if you always have low expectation of Carlton, they can only surprise you in a good way!

What decorating styles and colors do you like right now?

[(Anonymous)]

I'm not digging Pantone color of the year: Living Coral.

I am loving that houseplants are so big right now.

[(Anonymous)]

Er... he did, though. He apologized, acknowledged that his jokes were offensive and bad taste, expressed regret and promised to be more careful in the future. Which, you know, he had been doing up until those old tweets were rediscovered, so it wasn't just bullshit. Was there something else you'd want him to do?

It's an amazing kick for sure. I hope so too, they're an amazing team!

Yes they are! I guess I'm being a bit stereotypical, but oh well, I love them all the same!

The first time I saw Carlton play was when they made an amazing comeback to win it, it was honestly the best sports game I've ever seen! So I'm the type of fan who figures that as long as they make a good effort, then hey, it's all good. Between Cripps and Simmo, it only goes up from here anyways!;;

Yeah, this was back in the day when they insisted on translating all the names to the Spanish version. I still remember when I read the Narnia books after watching the first movie and I couldn't get over the Pevensies being called Pedro, Susana, Edmundo and Lucía.

Re: What decorating styles and colors do you like right now?

[(Anonymous)]

I'm still a sucker for the more 'rugged' look, no white, beige, or clean sterile lines as far as I'm concerned. I like life where I'm living.

Re: What is some sayings your family use that would really confuse outsiders/

[(Anonymous)]

Saying "that black piece of furniture" pointing at something one of us has been looking for when it was right in front of us the whole time. It comes from an old sketch from Argentinian comedy group Les Luthiers where the pianist can't find the piano that's right there on the stage until one of his companions points it out.

A lot of random quotes from Les Luthiers, really.

"He was possessed!" "Yes, and he had eaten a lot too."

"And they lived happily ever after and they ate like pigs."

"She was pregnant, the foolish girl!" (Talking about a moth)

Next they'll be dressing him in a clown suit with full makeup.

Re: How was your day?

[(Anonymous)]

Ah, I should have figured as much. I don't follow college, so best of luck to whomever you're rooting for!

[(Anonymous)]

Translated to "Delicate/Pretty Lady" here...they didn't even try. :|

(Delicate/Pretty being one word that kinda means both but the delicate is more used to describe the prettiness ala delicate features but whole body and not meant to mean breakable. Translating is hard.)

[(Anonymous)]

Oh geez, why did they even do that? I read a Spanish version of Gathering Blue when I was younger and was baffled because they changed the MC’s name from Kira to Nora. At least Anne to Ana makes sense.

Re: What decorating styles and colors do you like right now?

I don’t pay much attention to home decor trends, but I work at a public library and a lot of decorating magazines and books that have come through recently have given me really strong 80s vibes, which, no thanks. I do love houseplants, but that’s just a “trying to fill every square inch of space with plants” thing for me; I do the same outside.

[(Anonymous)]

i don't think that makes it a bad title, but i don't know the book. introducing a character by the most obvious feature which they hate and then making the reader realise they hate it isn't a horrible idea.

[(Anonymous)]

Agreed, agreed, agreed, OP. Worst character by far and literally nothing of value would be lost if he got killed off. Also, Jeremy Renner seems like a huge prick based on how he behaved after that "Black Widow's a slut" crack.

[(Anonymous)]

Wasn't it the Tony stans who insisted he was going to die in that scene and took it as more woobie bait? Either way, they're insufferable.

[(Anonymous)]

This was at a time when not many people spoke English ( those who had the chance to learn a second language usually studied French) and they figured audiences would have an easier time understanding Spanish names. If the name to translate didn't have a Spanish equivalent they just picked a different one.

I don't understand the Kira/Nora thing, though, because Nora isn't a Spanish name at all as far as I know. It could be an attempt at making it easier to pronounce, but Kira is easy enough, I think. Is there any wordplay or anagram about the name in the book? In Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets they had to change Voldemort's name to Tom Sorvolo Ryddle so it could spell "soy Lord Voldemort".

But Steve did that in order to protect Bucky, whom he is loyal to. He has no reason to even like Stark, considering he's been nothing but an ass to him since the beginning. Quit being a rigid autist.

(cont.) Holy fuck, nevermind. Finally, finally, finnaly!! beat the Out Run score of 5M!! Holy shit. Finally!

[(Anonymous)]

Actually, I just looked up the book and it's way too recent for my explanation to make sense. I was refering mainly to works translated in the 1980's or earlier. Also, there must be some Spanish translations that kept the name Kira because different online stores refer to the character with either name.

Re: How was your day?

[(Anonymous)]

Maybe write about the platform games when you get stuck? Or rather, write when you need a break in your game?
Honestly, I'm the same though!

Re: How was your day?

[(Anonymous)]

I was totally in the same boat, I just skimp over the scene anytime I watch it now;;

[(Anonymous)]

I actually love the mountain goats, mostly because of a certain playlist I listened to.. But hey, if I'm going to miss the point, I might as well miss it all the way.

Honestly, I have such hard feelings about loyalty. And by every means, Steve was loyal to Bucky over Stark, just as he should have been. To say otherwise means you don't know the definition of the word.
