Somebody take away the J-Novel club localizer's thesaurus. First, there was "sonambulism," which could have been simply referred to as "sleepwalking." Now there's "amanuensis," when they could have meant "scribe."

Started watching Cobra Kai, and this whole show is so ridiculous when you remember that it's about two dudes in their 50s beefing over a local karate tournament from 30+ years ago. Like, yeah, Johnny's still a pathetic loser who doesn't even know what Facebook is, but Danny's a successful businessman with a family, and he's still feuding with his old high school bully!

I thought anglicised spellings of Irish and Gaelic names were already bizarre (I'm looking at you, Siobhán), but the Anglicisation of Chinese names and words is another can of worms. I'm not a professional linguist. How am I supposed to know that Cao Cao is pronounced like T'sao T'sao?

The doctor goes to a Thai restaurant and orders a "dragon balls" dish, which the menu explicitly states is spicy.

>doesn't tolerate spicy foods and claims that the waiter would ask the chef to make a less spicy dish

>claims to have developed internal chemical burns after ingesting the dish

> The supervisor of the restaurant says that it's impossible to make a "mild" version of dragon balls because the chili is inside the balls

> Restaurant wants to subpoena her medical records

>Now the doctor has dropped her lawyer and is representing herself

You can be a doctor but still be an idiot.
