Wow. You got it perfectly right: everybody knows where that plastic went. This is why I wrote it like that, and didn’t have to explain how it got dumped in the ocean all along. I wasn’t playing riddles, I assumed it was otherwise obvious and common knowledge. Jeez, sorry if it didn’t come off the way I meant.

Guess where that waste used to go

hastighet
As a native speaker of a language that’s unlike anything, I envy you folks so much. Knowing enough English and German you just look at it, and go ‘aaah, speediness’ (I guess the ‘hast’/‘hastig’ bit is the same as ‘haste’/‘hasty’ in English, and the ‘het’ is the same as ‘heit’ /~ness’/ in German).
You wouldn’t guess the word, reading it in context is so much easier.

First I wanted to say they probably wanted to write Camellia. Nope, it’s not even a similar flower.

Non-native here. For a good half a minute I couldn’t wrap my head around legs having to do anything with “door guards”.
One of my kind colleagues asked another - “What are you sewing?”. It was both unoffensive and funny enough to get them to stop.

You know what, I wouldn’t even bother if it happened once. I wouldn’t like to be in the same situation, and while I would ask first, I understand we’re not the same. The moment it happens the second time, though… Pure laxative with white food colouring.

They found a 4000 year old bagless vacuum cleaner the other day.
Yeah, it’s common knowledge that the bagless feature was introduced 3200 years ago.

Hungary has the same system. Or “half five” actually being 16:30. It’s been hella fun getting used to “half five” meaning 17:30. Constant confusion.

A bit cliché and it might not look great around the handle, but wash it and wrap it around a tall+wide enough mug?

It’s especially spicy when you consider that one single normal League match can easily extend beyond 30 minutes. Hell, even a lighter mode (ARAM) can be 30-35+ minutes at times.
- Comment on Home cooking 5 weeks ago:
Honesty and the ability to receive constructive criticism are pretty great things in a relationship. Since it doesn’t pass as ‘something I don’t have to cook’, I would just thank her a lot, and apologise but say I prefer it a bit more well done, and perhaps show her how I like it. Maybe mention the risks that come with undercooked chicken. I would also be infinitely grateful if she showed me nice tricks or just simply explain in detail how she would like me to stuff for her. All kinds of stuff.
- Comment on Luv Me Chips, 'ate Seagulls... 5 weeks ago:
Let’s think about it cold. Kill seagull -> no witnesses, and the next seagull might do the same. I mean, let’s get on his level of apeshit crazy, and let’s assume seagulls actually understand stuff like humans, morals, and above all, human morals, and on top of that, they even care about those and want to comply. You didn’t give it a lesson, because it died before it could learn from it, or before it could let the other seagulls know it’s not cool to steal chips.
Hell, even when I’m trying to get on his level, it’s still primitively dumb.
