I laughed so hard when I read this. Fiance was unimpressed, but it's still one of the funniest translations I've read. It's just so... Deutsch. A+ translator-san.

Horror books SHOULD provide content warnings, specifically, warning: author's greatest horror is basic poverty!
The horror. 😐

Several years ago:
Me: what rhymes with meerkat?
Fiance, thinking very hard: 🤔🤔🤔🤔 ...shhhhhhmeerkat? No.
And then we both laughed really hard because we were at least aware that it was a derpy dumb answer.
#ai is not aware#if it were#that would be a third category of intelligence#or fourth or whatever#I stopped keeping track

I've developed a pretty severe dye allergy over the last decade (it just keeps getting worse with exposure) and this means most makeup with dyes and lakes make me swollen and itchy and overall miserable, especially around the eyes, and if one more person tells me I'm brave for not wearing makeup, I get to make them swollen and itchy and overall miserable.... them's the rules.
what people usually mean by “makeup is an art form” is they use 11 shades to contour themselves into the same face
#the worst part is that I still keep trying#I'll try that carmine eyeliner#I'll read through all the ingredients#but they're not generally helpful#and then I'll hate myself when my eyes are burning and so dry that I wake up in the middle of the night#so fun#for what#so my eyelashes can fall out#the even more annoying part#is a lot of people don't notice#it's like flirting#no one knows what it is or how much is okay#they just know what trying too hard looks like#and they don't like that#except sometimes they do

Hot dog water??
A few years ago, our stove-top kettle broke (long story) and for a brief period, while debating whether to replace it with an electric or not, we were boiling water for coffee/matcha in one of our two little pots on the stove.
This led to a phone call at 6am while Fiance was on his morning commute and I was still very much asleep.
Fiance: hey babe...
Me: .......yeah?
Fiance: did you... did we.... *le sigh* was the pot on the stove... water?
Me: ....yeah.
Fiance: water for tea?
Me, suddenly awake: which pot?
Fiance: the water pot... it wasn't... *le bigger sigh* was it hot dog water??
Me, awake and dying: 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 IT WAS TOTALLY HOT DOG WATER!
Fiance: man... I knew it. This tea tastes like shit.
Me: 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 I 🤣🤣 have 🤣🤣so 🤣 many 🤣🤣 questions! 🤣🤣🤣
Fiance: 😾*sips tea* 🤮
#hot dog water#matcha#bad day#lol#morning commute#mornings am I right#he is a morning person#how did he not smell it#we will never know#I still laugh about this every few months#the cinematic effect of him still trying to drink it#kills me every time
