@loopback0 All letters are silent in French. You only pronounce the accent marks.

@Zecc Ah. That seems... far fetched.
I guess if you pronounce "blanc" like English "blank" it kinda sorta works, my brain's just too French-infested to get there.
Yeah it relies on the English pronunication of blanc not dropping the c.
Blonk.I've never heard it pronounced any way other than "Blonk".
So .... what is the "correct" pronunciation? Blon ? Blonsch ? Blonkowski ?
The c is silent in French. Blon.
Ah .... the French. Well, that explains it.

The Fun With Maps thread is {indecipherable string of directional emojis}

@da-Doctah , typically.

@PleegWat I'm pretty much emoji blind. All the facial expression ones look the same to me at the resolution they're usually presented, so if you're think you're trying to communicate something using them, be advised that you're failing miserably.
-
@da-Doctah in the case of 'string of arrows', that's kind of the point of that particular emoji, that 'it's someplace else, pick a direction'.
-
@Arantor In which case "{indeciperable string of directional emojis}" is better for purpose than any particular indecipherable string of directional emojis would be.

@da-Doctah yes but that takes more effort than writing

.Same why the kneeling warthog emoji is so prevalent… we could but it’s effort.

I keep it handy in case I need more again.

When she was young, my daughter's favorite doll was a stuffed animal -- a llama.
It became known as The Dolly Llama.

In the children's classic "Swallows and Amazons," one of the girls who plays at being a pirate is called Ruth, but insists on everyone calling her Nancy, because "pirates are ruthless."

Fair enough. You did say "a lot" of weight.
His younger sister, Kim Yo-jong, doesn't seem to share her brother's weight problems. She's actually quite attractive, but from what I hear she's an even more awful person than he is.
