I've have had my glasses for under 3 days and I'm already doing stereotypical glass-wearer stuff
-
It was only matter of time but, I no longer am the only one in my family without glasses, I haven't gotten them yet, but they are coming
Now I wonder if I should update my avatar by adding the glasses for my catpone when they arrive
.
In other news. finding a black ring that doesn't cost the same as my month's groceries from Finland's jewelry stores was annoyingly challenging, though I eventually found one, I was actually considering making one myself from wood and wire if I didn't find one soon
. I may make one or two at some point anyway though, it sounds like interesting thing to try.

@Rikifive
with vote 2 out of 2, I'll be adding them when I actually get them (so that I can make them accurate) there's other small detail I may add too.

Weather is a weird thing, I got home from my parent's place and my car was covered in solid layer of ice, I know why it happened, but it's neat.
I saw the post about the reputation thing being disabled, and honestly, I'm glad, never really cared for it, things based on likes tend to be exploited, even if they are meaningless, but I'm also glad the brohoof counter stayed, it's a fun little detail to see when you pass a special number, like now for me it's 1 from turning to the next 1000
That's my thoughts after a busy weekend, did I miss anything interesting?

I don't know if these will be getting any attention, but i'm gonna now and then post a Finnish saying and I'll let people guess what it means. I'll tell the answer at some point after. I know it can be googled and so on, but this is for fun, also, if people get interested enough to google it, I'll count that as a win

Oh, I google nothing. Im not that aware.
I seem to remember Finnish sayings being a bit incomprehensibly awkward when translated into English. I’m sure everyplace has those old phrases that barely make sense without the incredibly specific context!
I know an old Arabian ( i think) one of “Trust in God, but tie up your camel.”

@Widdershins
This was less popular than I thought, so i'll probably just share weird/funny ones now and then.But you're right, we have plenty of sayings that even many Finns nowadays aren't sure the origin of, we kinda just use them
And Finnish language in general is very bad to translate directly in English due to it being so different.
(Cheekless means nonsensical/unbelievable/ etc. similar words)
One example of those weird ones would be "To show a jay's eggs" which means 'to put in one's place/to teach a lesson'. I have no idea what bird eggs have to do with teaching someone a lesson but it's still a saying some use.

Happy Independence day Finland! With how world has been this year, I'm happy to see that we have managed to keep our little country in relative order for now, let's not take example from others this time, please.

I have never played any LoZ games and don't know anything about Majora's Mask -

@Will Guide
I guess they have similarities but I wouldn't say it's the same.The mask isn't really evil by itself, as in, it doesn't turn those who wear it evil the moment they take it. It binds itself to the wearer on the soul-level (in other word, you're stuck with it until you die and even after that you aren't free.) and brings up the wearer's dark side. So it doesn't make you evil, it just takes the evil you already have inside you and amplifies it until it takes over.
It also never literally takes over, since after it succeeds with the corruption, the wearer already does what it wants.
Also wearer isn't necessarily the right term because it's rarely worn after the first time, it kinda just floats next to the "wearer"

I just finished the first season of the newest She-ra, and it's not bad.
I mean, it's not a masterpiece by any means, but I'll watch the rest of it and probably enjoy it.One thing I dislike though, the weird effect on the characters' faces, is it shading? blush? it looks weird to me and as much as I try to ignore it, it always take me out of the show when I see it.

I don't get the "is Pepsi okay?" jokes, I have never been asked that in my life, I just ask for Cola and I get whichever they happen to have.
