So… The Clone Wars??

I mean, one must admit that a 4 CD set of traditional Turkmenistan folk music does sound pretty sweet.

Just get a power supply, problem solved.

100%.

The French are still relatively skinny for exactly that reason; the food is in general much less processed and the rules are very strict. As a North American who lives there, I’ve lost weight just by being here.

Yeah but speaking with someone who speaks both your languages is just so fluid… Sometimes, one language just fits better with what you’re trying to convey.

Try being Canadian, it’s even more insulting!

Although to be fair, this never happens outside of Paris.

• Unless you’re in Europe. Having to bring your own tools is a north american thing. Here all tools are provided, even pencils and tape measures. Hell, my last construction job even provided clothes and work boots, but that might be company specific. Also, generally north american construction companies require you to have your own hand tools, but not expensive power tools like large drills and saws. Cordless power tools can go either way but I always had my own.

Those types are what me and my wife like to call “neo-hippies,” or “bobos,” to borrow from French.

Imo, it’s a combination of that, and really outdated teaching methods.

La Francophonie is large enough that people never need another language to access additional information. They even have their own pronunciations for Anglophone celebrities, which is bizarre at first.

I once had a conversation in a bar where people were talking about a famous musician named ‘Kenny West.’ My friends were astonished that I had never heard of him. It took me like 5 minutes to realise that they were talking about Kanye West…

Like I mean come on, he says his own name constantly in his own songs…

For sure. Being a native English speaker, it’s worth paying a little extra to go to the cinema in Switzerland for me.

The French don’t do subtitles, they dub everything.

It’s horrible.

I still say ‘biffed it’ sometimes.

Ex: “You fucking biffed it hard on that last jump there, bud.”

He probably didn’t want to deal with the air he would’ve introduced into the system. Or he was extremely lazy. Or both aha.

Realistically, the pressure was probably less than 1 PSI, as residential gas is measured in “inches of water column,” especially after the regulator. Where I did gas work, even before the regulator was never more than 2 PSI.

Gas is verrrry simple in almost all single family home applications. If you test all the joints with soapy water (with the gas turned on) you will find any leaks very quickly. I know it’s scary, but water will do much, much more damage in a small amount of time than gas. Of course, if you’re simply not comfortable doing it, hire a professional, but trust me, if lazy apprentices who don’t think past their next vape hit can do it, so can you.

Age of Empires Il still has a very active scene with new content all the time. In fact there’s a new expansion dropping this week!
