"English doesn't really have any equivalent whatsoever to Japanese honorifics, so we just completely leave them out of our subtitles because there's no way that our English-speaking audience could possibly grasp their significance in explaining these character's relationship with each other"

There is a character named Robert Thomson.

At work, he's known as Robert by his coworkers and Thomson by his boss. At home, the people in his neighborhood call him Rob. His parents, spouse, and closest friends call him Robbie. His best friend from childhood calls him Robbie and also sometimes calls him Roberto. The children in his neighborhood call him Mr. Rob but when he does volunteer work at the library the kids there call him Mr. Thomson. Children in the wild who don't know him personally call him sir. When he goes to anywhere with reception, he's typically addressed as Thomson.

So explain to me again why English speaking audiences can't grasp that those kids are calling that woman Oneechan because she's a young adult woman that they aren't personally acquainted with, and more importantly why you chose to localize that to her given name and not the equivalent of "Miss" or even "Miss Given Name"? Because if your goal is to replicate the experience that the original Japanese audience would have with those characters, you're failing spectacularly. Because now not only do you have a bunch of kids going around calling adults by their given names when in the original language they're calling them a cultural equivalent to Miss or Mister, but your insistence on removing all honorifics and just using names means that there's no absolutely zero difference in the way a person is addressed by the people closest to them and total strangers. Which is not only wildly inaccurate to how the Japanese audience would experience that, it's not even that accurate to English, either.

The reason I know for a fact that a hot dog is not a sandwich or taco or whatever is because the sausage, served by itself without a bun, is still a Hot Dog. This implies that the bun is just as much a condiment to the hot dog as the chili and cheese or ketchup and relish would be. If the bun is not essential to the dish, how could it be a sandwich?

Likewise it cannot be a Taco, because a taco without its shell becomes Taco Salad. A hot dog does not become a salad when removed from the bun. Therefore it cannot be a taco, either.

In conclusion, a hot dog is a type of sausage, one that can be served on a bun with a wide array of additional toppings, but the toppings and bun do not change the classification of the sausage, although certain toppings may create a sub-classification (ex: chili dogs).

[desperately horny voice] haha yeah did you know that studies have shown that vocal expressions of pain actually increase your pain tolerance? yeah, even if it's volitional, you should really be making lots of loud noises while you're in pain. please. if you want we can even practice right now.

[ace-trainer-alice]

this post was kinda funny because a section of the responses missed the word "horny" and were just excited for good advice/talking about an interesting phenomenon and another section of the responses read the word "horny" and assumed the advice was bullshit.

both of you are wrong. i am deeply horny about pain noises *and* reality conforms to my vision. yet another victory for sadists everywhere.

if hiphop weren't real its existence would sound like an exceptionally heavy-handed metaphor about racism from a really cringe didactic fantasy novel. yeah the racialized underclass in this society, the one that's constantly derided by the ethnic majority as stupid and anti-intellectual, they have a complex artistic tradition based around improvisational poetry which is sometimes enacted on a competitive basis for dispute resolution. you get judged based on the subtlety of your wordplay and the complexity of your internal rhyme schemes. the dominant group periodically gets mad about how this doesn't count as real art like their own objectively more simplistic music and poetry because sometimes it has swears in it
