They are still a good pair of hooters

Knowledge? The Duolingo bird has chosen the path of ultra violence

I think I know the concept behind Hooters and other generic boobie bars (not an american) but I honestly don't think I could go to one of those venues and, if I went, I have serious doubts I'd be able to enjoy myself or the meal.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 5 months ago

I've been a couple of times. The food wasn't particularly good, so you probably wouldn't have enjoyed the meal. Honestly, it's more like a generic restaurant than it is a strip club.

I went as a novelty kind of thing when I was a kid visiting Disney, but it was just sort of amusing back then. Grown ass men should just step up and go to a titty bar.

Not if the eating and drinking at a reasonable price was part of the appeal.

Don't think I be able to motivate myself to go to one.

It's one of those things that sounds nice in theory but would have disastrous outcomes if ever attempted.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 5 months ago (1 children)

The only times it ends in disaster is when a client doesn't believe in consent.

Would that be a problem for you?

Now, the real problem with Hooters is that their wings started to suck so you're really just overpaying to be a bit of a creep towards a young lady in too much makeup.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 5 months ago

No amount of consent in the world would aid in making me feel as not taking part of an exploitative arrangement. That would be my problem.

Regarding bad food... I've worked in hospitality. It can always be worst.

Adidas and puma, but modern.

And I'd say less Nazis, but I'm not so sure....

Cool name for an album, false etymology. Best theories are a lot more boring, super ancient words for strike or rub.

Cool name for an album...

The Tootsie pop owl is their cousin and they both hate that guy, fuckin asshole

[–] [email protected] 6 points 5 months ago

You though the hooters owl was a creep…

[–] [email protected] 32 points 5 months ago (1 children)

Surprising which one of the two turned out to be a stalker.

Nobody cares for the America's Best owl who chose optometry.

[–] [email protected] 6 points 5 months ago

Or the Tootsie roll owl choosing confectionary.

If they could reconcile their differences, you could eat chicken wings while learning how to say “jumbo bazoingas” in several languages.

[–] [email protected] 13 points 5 months ago

And if you skip your lesson, you become the next set of "chicken" wings

I do wish Duolingo had slang and curse lessons

[–] [email protected] 10 points 5 months ago (1 children)

That would be fucking awesome

Das wäre verdammt¹ geil

There, learned a German phrase ;-)

Pronunciation in IPA:
das 'vɛːrə fɛɐ̯ˈdamt ˈɡaɪ̯l


1: Technically, that's "damn awesome". The more literal translation of fucking would involve the word "fick", the most idiomatic version "verfickt geil". I don't really see it used even in rougher slang, so I feel like the general equivalent in terms of usage would be "verdammt".

Danke! I’ve always wanted to learn German.
