    I will get the finest cut of steak money can buy, fly out to Seattle, set up right on the busiest hipster street, cook it well done, and then eat it with ketchup.

    The tears will power my perpetual motion time machine.

    not a doctor, not a lawyer, examples I use may not be fully researched so don't take out of context plz, don't @ me

    Hey man if someone wants to spend a bunch of money on well-done steak that's their bidness. Though I do subscribe to the whole chef gonna give you a less then amazing cut that way thing.

    @Evil Multifarious‌ I know that Russian is particularly frustrating for translators in general. Mayakovsky's poetry, for example, is almost untranslatable into English because so much of it revolves around Russian wordplay that's impossible to translate.

    Likewise, I know German can be frustrating. Kafka, from what I understand, wrote in long, intense sentences that just rolled on and on but in English they are broken up due to the fact that we can't really do that.

    I asked for ketchup for my steak one time at a high end restaurant, but it was only because the wait staff and manager were being complete cocks.

    Fuck you assholes, if you're going to insult me by treating me like I'm not good enough to spend my hard earned money at your restaurant, I'm going to insult you too.

    The 38-year-old, identified as Tao Hsiao, had been shopping with his girlfriend at the Golden Eagle International Shopping Center in Xuzhou, China, when she asked to check out one last shoe store.

    Having been inside the mall for five hours, Tao had reached his limit, and reportedly insisted that they leave immediately.

    "He told her she already had enough shoes, more shoes that she could wear in a lifetime and it was pointless buying any more," an eyewitness was quoted as saying. "She started shouting at him accusing him of being a skinflint and of spoiling Christmas, it was a really heated argument."

    Surveillance footage shows Tao angrily hurling the shopping bags and jumping over the railing onto the cosmetics section below.

    Translating is always more of an art. There isn't really a language you can do literal translation with and keep the feeling of the original writing.

    Doing Japanese there are always these weird puns and phrasing that just doesn't work well in English. A lot of the writing is done in a way that you can assume meaning do to context. Doing direct translation though is a bitch because of it.

    A good translator though can bring the meaning and essence of the writing to a new language but probably will never do it through a literal translation.

    whenever these things happen i feel kind of sorry for the person who made the joke

    it was probably an offhand thing and not their main punchline of their standup routine

    but then we have a long time discussing how unfunny they are

    I will say, as someone on the OPPOSITE side of the fence as @Tav‌ , that chat is a fickle beast when it comes to jokes.

    Some people are consistent... but a whole bunch of ya'll will get your panties bunched up over jokes at certain demographics and go on tangents about why people shouldn't make jokes like that and it's bad for society and blahblahblah, but then be trigger happy with that agree button on an offensive joke at seperate demographic that, for some reason, is OK.

    I'm with the "fuck it make fun of everything" group that Ludious is on. But Tav isn't completely off base with his general thought here. But then again I feel like most people new that and it's still not worth getting bunched over.

    oh deebs, you can joke about anything you want, as long as it's more funny than it is offensive

    which is to say

    you can't make any jokes about anything because they're all bombs and you are terrible.
