“Americanized translation” just refers to the words that showed up on the subtitles. The actors say the words jjapaguri, but the English subtitles translate the word as “ram-don,” ie. ramen + udon. Basically instead of assuming that an English-speaking audience would understand that jjapaguri is a portmanteau of…

Wow, your care for humanity is truly impressive.

Not really into any of their choices. I just grab a Stroopwafel for the kids. Traveled enough in the past month that there’s still a few kicking around in my bag.

That that’s what Yeon-kyo asked for says something about her and implies, as other moments in the film did, that she married up into a higher social strata.

No idea. I think it was a summer gig anyhow, so I doubt the dude gave a shit.

I’m reminded of an amusing anecdote from an otherwise unremarkable former college acquaintance. Dude was a caddy at some opulent NY country club. He was assigned to a golfer, introduced himself, and the golfer continued to call him “caddy” all day.

This is genuinely shocking to me. Normally the internet is so trustworthy. I followed those steps on how to date Natalie Dormer, and we’ve been happily married for five years now.

That’s a lot of words to say “You could just use a knife”.

I worked in restaurants for over a decade when I was younger and 100% of kitchen workers peel garlic by crushing cloves between the flat of a chef’s knife and a cutting board. I don’t know why you would use two bowls, it accomplishes literally the same thing without looking like a dingus smashing two bowls…

Why not have inspectors make sure the boardrooms and writers reflect the racial breakdown of society, then we won’t need woke justice warriors policing the media optics.

And, when it shows that “white erasure” is a myth perpetuated by easily-led ne’er-do-wells, will you finally shut the fuck up?

Good point. I’m pretty sure Mia would have no qualms eating the housekeeper who folded her towels into realistic looking assholes.

They’re vacuum packed!

I’m liking how things are just slowly spinning out of control but nobody seems to quite realize how bad it could get. I’m hoping for complete breakdown and anarchy by the end of the season.

The reveal was that the captain didn’t know they were obviously actors (and vice-versa). that doesn’t make sense.

“Their concern it turns out is that because it’s heavy, the coffin is going to get caught in orbit around the ship. The mass of the coffin makes no difference since acceleration due to gravity is the sum of the weight of the ship and the coffin. ”

Sure it does, if the mass of the coffin is sufficient so that the air…

I thought this was probably the best episode so far and would have given it a better grade. The whole scene with Ryan and Karen was great, with Ryan forgetting which people know about which lies, and “That’s a very odd menu”. Also did we know he’s apparently in a polygamous marriage? Because that reveal, and the line…

The delay is not well done but it is at least realistic when it would be more like a 43 minute delay if there were near Jupiter.

I don’t get the dislike for this show. It makes me laugh. It’s slower in timing than Veep, but the jokes are still there.
