How do you feel about hiccough?
lol, like google respects the boolean minus or plus these days. This is maybe a cool guide for google from 15 years ago.
Is this a US expression? I never heard it growing up so I just assumed it was from the UK or something
Hey, I don’t criticize your hobbies…
Do they sell the 500 ml version? The cans in this pic are 330, which is a bit smaller than the standard 350 in Japan as well.
If you zoom in on the can it says 6%. Japan went through a phase of increasing alcohol percentages on these types of drinks ~10 years ago when the govt was raising taxes on beer a few times in a relatively short time period. They first came out with the “strong” versions which were 9%, and I think that wave peaked at a 13% lemon drink (which tasted like licking a robot, btw).
More recently Japan’s been a little more health conscious about booze in general, so there’s been an increase in types of non-alcoholic versions of drinks, including pale ale type beers and cocktails. The companies making cheap options like the -196 and the zeros have subsequently put 6 and 7% versions in the stores. There’ve also been studies showing young people drinking less overall, so it’ll be interesting to see what the next moves are.
If you know the Sinatra version you might also know it was done by tons of other people, like Ella Fitzgerald, Tony Bennett, Mel Tormé, etc. Sinatra wasn’t even the original.
Dunno, better call in an etymologist to study what bugs the birds are eating.
Where did you get it? The internet archive link from the article said “item not available”.

I’d already been doing contact juggling by the time the fushigi came out, but the ads implied that you could just… perform a skill by buying their product. It’d be like a company marketing the “mystical multiball” that shows people juggling 7 objects and implying you too could do that if you only owned their particular set.
I agree with you that a large part of the problem is that destruction is easier than creation, but it wouldn’t be hard to get a lot of progressive things in if there were the political will for it. Appoint tons of progressive judges and start putting through huge increases in wealth taxes, climate and social programs, workers/union rights, scale back police power, etc etc.
But even if there were hundreds of leftist judges waiting in the wings, the dems are too corporatist to support stuff like that, so the best they can offer is some social programs that won’t upset the status quo too much.
Just listening purely to the prosody Yeats stands with the best for me :)
It’s the title from the article. The words help and out are literally the 3rd and 4th words on the page.
