It's like being subscribed to a toddler in the "why" phase.

When having a beer, I've always found it funny that one of the few imperial measurements metric nations kept around, the pint, America went and invented their own. Uncharacteristically a smaller version too.
I'm into cars. They all have personalities and behaviours. I often see cars and think, "When it rolled out of the factory on its first day, did it ever imagine that one day it would be like this?"
"What am I going to be when I grow up?"
"You're going to ferry an old business man off his estate twice a month, then be sold to an Uber Black driver that won't look after you so you'll blow blue smoke and eventually be sold to a scrap yard for parts."
"Oh... 😔"
"And what about me? What will I be?"
"You're going to have three 122mm rocket launchers strapped to you and you'll help liberate a nation."
"...😲"
Nah. It starts out like THUD! THUD! and then slowly after a couple minutes of warming up, that goes all muffled and it becomes that familiar high-pitched ringing noise.
Yeah. Japan's usually going to be number 1 in Asia, but we all go for whoever of those three teams is still in and usually two of them are in the WC. China's just insignificant. I think even NZ is higher than them and they're a low-population nation obsessed with rugby.
Haha. I'm sure the police knew. He had been arrested a few times for climbing bridges and construction sites around the city. Then get dropped home right by a massive pine tree with a cone on top.
I imagine they'd be sent to Ukraine to be killed by an arsenal Made In USA.
There's a bar near me that is crammed full of arcade machines from all the decades and it is crammed with people of all ages having a blast and so many young people on dates. Games like DDR are still insanely popular and there's line ups for Daytona USA even though it's older than plenty of the people playing it.
My dog's a bit like this. The breed's definitely not for retrieving, so when he brings me something it's to play tug with it, or he's gifting it to me or just really happy and showing me. I have to be careful with his body language because if I throw something instead of praising him or showing interest, I can tell he gets confused and sad, like he failed me. But if I seem happy and interested, hell trot off with a spring in his step either leaving the "gift" with me, or still with it in his mouth happy that I think it's cool too.

a humiliating 7-0 loss to World Cup rivals Japan
Uuuh. Maybe China considers Japan a rival, but Japan wouldn't consider China at all. If an actual world-class team like Japan has a rival, it would be Korea. Both teams obviously well above China in rankings.
You could consider Australia a rival, but honestly the two countries and the fans love each other too much.
When I was 15, my girlfriend's mother was appalled that I had no idea who Motley Crue was, but I knew all the other bands she mentioned.
I look back now and imagine it's like meeting a teenager who knows Green Day and Oasis, but has never heard of Blink 182.
