The Garbage Dump: 100+ pages of well-aged compost

Okay so what the hell accent is "nor'easter" supposed to represent?

I cannot imagine hearing someone say the word "northeast" aloud and have it come out as "nor'east"

What regional dialect has forceful dental fricatives turn into glottal stops

The term may go back to the 1600s, which would pin the blame on the British.

Also, here’s a fun article.

The use of nor’easter to describe a northeast storm is a pretentious and altogether lamentable affectation, the odious, even loathsome, practice of landlubbers who would be seen as salty as the sea itself.

How about Nor'ich?

[Vivianinatoga]

It's a contraction, not a glottal stop. At least, that's how I've always read it.

[Vivianinatoga]

Then again, glottal stops sometimes replace "t" endings of syllables, so maybe if the "h" is silent and it's sounded like "nort-easter" then I could see a case made but that's kind of a stretch.

[PhoolCat]

How about Norwich as a place that accent could come from?

Yeah, I've always pronounced it "norreaster". Can't recall if I've ever heard anyone else say it.

That doesn't make it make any more sense though

My terminology was intended as humorous hyperloquacity

Q: Why do men pee in the shower?
A: because peeing in the bath is hecking disgusting.

[Vivianinatoga]

This book on Freudian psychology mentions nothing about peeing in the shower.

I like the featured articles on the magazines that all have the gist of 'Women are succubi' or 'Men aren't MANLY enough'

I did a marathon draw-stream today, where I try to continuously draw as long as possible (with breaks and dinner here and there.).

I managed to last a bit over 8 hours, with 6 pages of comics fully penciled. Overall, not bad. I actually enjoyed it, and a lot of people came, but you really do need to prepare for this when marathoning.

I bought a vn game with cute art but the english is horrible and my Chinese isn't good enough to play it in Chinese (the dev's native language)

what do

[diribigal]

Play the Japanese translation instead.

[Daikatuna]

there's something about burnout paradise that manages to scratch a specific racing itch that other racing games i've played over the years haven't

[Daikatuna]

in some ways it kind of reminds me of the old 90's need for speeds

[Cthulhu Inc]

Play the Japanese translation instead.

[Aramek]

Read the bad English.

Easy solution, giggle at it while you play.

[Gloomy Rube]

First is check for other translations on the internet, translation patches and the like, if there is one in a language you know better, go for that.

Second, use... uh... poop. There's a program that hooks onto VN text and runs it through google translate for you. Might be worse, but might be better. CAN'T REMEMBER THE NAME THOUGH
