“However, even though it is now widely accepted that 4 must be written IV, the original and most ancient pattern for Roman numerals wasn’t the same as what we know today. Earliest models did, in fact, use VIIII for 9 (instead of IX) and IIII for 4 (instead of IV). However, these two numerals proved problematic, they were easily confused with III and VIII. Instead of the original additive notation, the Roman numeral system changed to the more familiar subtractive notation. However, this was well after the fall of the Roman Empire.”

I tried something similar, but I was using small drops of parfume, some grass I plucked outside, other random organic stuff and a pot. The pot was on a lit stove. You can imagine how delightfully it must have smelled…
Lucky you! What model?
Put some.panic attacks on top for some sweet sweet monetary gains!
Yes, because if it didn’t happen in the season, it would make it an out-of-season depression.
As long as he doesn’t touch my blinker fluid, all is well.
There are a few video on YT from reputable creators highlighting malpratices Apple does on a yearly basis to rip you off in every way imaginable. Louis Rossmann and Hugh Jeffreys have done some “compilation” videos on that topic. To point you to a quick one, search for “Astonishing Anti Repair Pratcices by Apple in the last 15 years” by Hugh. If you value yourself, don’t buy Apple products.
Some stupid meme about a girl who told in a street interview that men like to get sloppy blowjobs

People usually write in their dialect and since there is no orthographic standard, it looks quite bizzare. If you know a little bit of German, take a look at Tapakapa Erklärt. An Austrian guy speaking and subtitling in his (Vienna?) dialect.
some_random_nick@lemmy.worldOPto Memes@lemmy.ml•"A language is a dialect no one would want to touch with a ten-foot pole" - Max Weinreich101·2 years agoClose enough. My original ideas was that Dutch is often taken as a joke language due to sounding like a cross-over between English and German. I just added Austria taking Bavaria with her because of the strong linguistic similarities. The inspiration for this meme was a comment on YT. A Dutch guy made a video in English with a strong accent. A German dude wrote “You should have made a video in German instead of in broken English.” The only reason we know the dude in the video was Dutch is because of some text in the background, but the accent sounded German.
Quite a few well known memers, not the peseants though
Time for some necromancy
