Broke and depressed
I know what the meme is supposed to represent, but the Tolkien nerd in me feels the need to correct the universal misunderstanding of the picture used.
Frodo isn’t saying he can’t read the inscription on the One Ring because it’s in Elvish. He actually is pretty fluent in Elvish in the novel, but the inscription on the Ring was in the Black Speech, which he couldn’t recognise.
I think more of a Steve Tyler.
Houthi is a name of a tribe, a surname of the tribe’s leader, as well as the name of a movement associated with that tribe.
The Houthi movement is a Shi’a Islamist movement from Yemen (where about 1/3 of the population are Shi’a, and 2/3 Sunni). The movement has been on the opposing side to the Yemeni government in the long Yemeni Civil War.
Allegedly it’s supported by Iran (which Iran officially declined) and it’s mottos include “Death to America” and “Death to Israel”. That should explain roughly why they are causing a stir in the Red Sea region.
It is a bad thing if you live in a country with a robust social system that is paid for through taxes and a below-replacement birth rate.
Like, we don’t need “more” people, but we need to keep the population stable to make sure the disabled and elderly can live well. Because someone has to bear the cost, and we can’t all be Norwegian.
Go fuck yourself. I have one train every two hours, only a couple bucks on my bank account, and five minutes until my train leaves.
I'm NOT going to wait for the local pensioners to but five months worth of groceries.
I never claimed superiority. I only said that since Europeans are accustomed to 24h system, the joke becomes difficult to understand, because we don't have this problem.
But if you perceive this as some sign of superiority, well…
I'm sorry is this some American joke I'm too European to understand?
It’s a combination of two common jokes about them. The vagina-face one is pretty obvious (y’know, the slit), as far as I know, the fish joke comes from the designations for their vehicles (although these are in-universe Imperial designations, kinda like the Hind is a NATO designation for a Soviet aircraft)
40K doesn’t really fit. While humanity isn’t the least advanced civilization in that universe, it’s also far from technological dominance (especially considering 10 000 years of stagnation following Horus’ Hoolabooga). I mean, even the vagina faced fish are more advanced than the Imperium!
Maybe because Slovak and Polish are both West Slavic languages? So they are similar.

Different IDs, so probably not?
IDF should stop claiming civilian infrastructure is hiding Hamas terrorists.
And instead use it’s intelligence to locate them.
