    Almost nobody does this, ever. Every language adapts foreign loanwords and pronounces them according to the rules of their own language. If you were to say to someone "hey let's go dress like ninja and samurai and do some karaoke while downing kamikaze shots" and you pronounced those words exactly like you would in Japanese

    You would be a gigantic tool

    I'm certain you would. Wouldn't want them intellectuals within earshot thinking you weren't one of them.

    They may just call on Jesus to exorcise the demons that are possessing your body.

    Social conformation, while certainly relevant, does not make for a compelling argument when justifying ignorance.

    So the only people who pronounce common-use foreign words according to the rules of their native tongue are ignorant redneck Jesus freak Americans? Is that what I'm hearing here?

    I only ask because if that really is your stance, I won't bother trying to correct you and will just hope that you don't actually teach anything related to language.

    It looks like they toned the shakycam way down. I didn't especially notice it before, but I was somewhat watching this time and it remained fairly steady.

    If you watch some of the earlier Fourth Panels from this season I think you'd see a drastic difference.

    What the fuck are you people talking about.

    The Japanese treat the /r/ phoneme with the allophone sounds of [r] and [l]. Meaning they do not distinguish the difference between the allophones for the phoneme, because it doesn't matter in their alphabet.

    Since you're trying to pronounce a Japanese word in a foreign language, you use the appropriate pronunciation.

    You do not go full redneck and do whatever the fuck because you're not educated. That is not a good excuse.

    I'm a teacher by the way. Now shut the fuck up and get out of my classroom.

    I wouldn't rag on a person's Japanese pronunciation if they're actually speaking Japanese as long as it was close, much as I don't correct the accents various people speak English with.

    man, I knew that they weren't comic dudes but I didn't know they were really not into comics that much.

    Like, Taskmaster isn't the most recognizable Marvel character, but it's not like he and MODOK are characters you really have to dig deep for.

    also x-23 isn't wolverine's daughter she's his clone duh

    also, the question of "who has Wolverine had sex with", can usually be answered by instead asking "who hasn't wolverine had sex with".

    It at least knocks his various sidekicks out of the loop.

    of sex having.

    With Wolverine.

    I don't really follow Marvel at all

    But he never banged Jubilee right?

    I hear her character went completely whack after the depowering thingy anyway. I miss the old 90s series, where she was pretty much a mallrat

    They're addressing this now, I think. Or doing SOMETHING with it at least, there's a wolverine+jubilee series going for the moment where they're suddenly in Russia for some reason.

    I would think Starbucks is infamously ubiquitous enough that they have no need for it.

    McDonalds is even more ubiquitous and they still run ads.

    It's probably just because Starbucks doesn't have any direct national competitors the size of Burger King or whatnot.

    Starbucks used to be completely against ads when I worked there back in 2003. They eventually went to radio, then billboard, and now even television. It has apparently been getting them good results.

    I believe I read a couple years ago that Subway actually has the most franchises of any restaurant chain in the US.

    But yeah, you're probably right about Starbucks lacking competition. I mean, who the hell is going to give them a run for their money, Caribou? Pfff.

    I imagine Subway's food is a little higher quality, but the price is pretty all right.

    Didn't someone once leave a McDonalds burger or something alone, and it still looked exactly the same after months and months?
