I'M AN OCTOPUS!

Y'ALL THOUGHT I WAS HUMAN! NOBODY SUSPECTED A THING!

@squirrel *gentlys the robobun*

Considering my previous toot about English-American translations went absolutely woolly, here's some more:

British: "I hear what you say"
American: "You're wrong, shut up"

British: "With the greatest respect..."
American: "You're a fucking idiot"

British: "That's a very brave proposal"
American: "WHAT THE FUCK ARE YOU THINKING YOU LUNATIC"

British: "I would suggest..."
American: "You will do this or be sanctioned"

It's the end of the month, which means patreon plugging time!

@squirrel I can never get into watching streams of events

I'm sure it's fun as hell to be there but that just doesn't translate into being fun to watch the stream for me

@squirrel ah that sucks, happens to all of us though

@squirrel hey, thanks for putting up with us!

*glances at current stuff going on out in the fediverse*
