If Centralia has counties and has people with the title "Countess" (and presumably "Count", if there were any non-women with the title), there probably ought to be some relation between the two, eh?
Linkle is one of those names that is a Japanese pun that they didn't really translate to English, like Waluigi
eh, waluigi works just by analogy, though it wouldn't work but for the coincidence that mario + flip the m upside down gets wario which was originally warui + mario
also "ruiji" means something like "alternate" in japanese apparently?

Don't hate accountants, accountants are innocent, dad used to be an accountant. If I claim to hate accountants it means I have been replaced with an imposter.

I have two acquaintances in accounting. One's too nice for his own good, and the other's a bit of a clod, but these facts are both unrelated to their chosen field.

Wasiterman, we need to talk.
What's the problem, Chef/
I'm starting to think The Five Singers University was a bad idea. ._.
What makes you say that chef?
well for starters, the only studetn i had show up to my office hours this week was clealry drunk
that's not fair, chef
if you wwnat me to stay sober you shouldn't hold your office hours on Saturday nights when you've invivted me over to watch football!
but that's when i have free time!
otherwise i'm just some kinda...busy person
what could you possibly be busy with?
c'mon, waiterman
i'm working two jobs now
i'm a chef and a professor at the same time
A Chefessor!
Exactly1
And it's really not easy to balance cooking food for the customers with grading exams for my students
but you never have any customers
or any students besides me
and i only agreed to attend because you promised me a TA position
in fact i'm pretty sure you just spend all your time playining Threes on your Kindle
It's not a Kindle, it's a Kandle
I told you I can olny afford knockoffs!
What difference, at this point, does it make?
You're right
Wanna go bowling?
Sure! Just remember we're not allowed bck into the bowling alley on 23rd Street
It's not my fault that manager wasa a jerk
Everyone knows you play for keeps and any pins you knock over you get to take with you
Yeah, I dunno what his deal was
Your trunk got prety full with all those bowling pins though

I was strongly considering accounting for a time. I've still got an - academic I guess? - interest in it, but it's ultimately not my deal, heh.
also hello from taiwan. i am here. weather is nice. other people on the job training seem nice. locals seem broadly nice to clueless foreigners who can't speak mandarin. chill/10
I thought they spoke some form of Min Chinese in Taiwan
Traditionally. After the Nationalists fleeing the mainland took over the island, Guo/Mandarin became the main language. Taiwanese Hokkien is still pretty common there, however; the street signs are generally bilingual or trilingual, if I am not mistaken.
yeah mandarin is the official language but a lot of people speak Taiwanese, and there is also Hakka, an aboriginal language. the MRT (Taipei metro) has signs/announcements in all these languages and English as well so its quadrilingual sometimes
You know a show is going to be a cliche, lazy pile of bad when the main character runs into a girl with toast in her mouth and it leads to an accidental groping and an argument about breast size.

I was going to mention the New Oxford American Dictionary but you'd probably beat me up because I only have that as a Kindle ebook
And, well, it's not like a new list destroys the old. I mean, it's not like the world works on internet rules where updates overwrite everything. The English language has been added terrible new words for a long time, and I hated it years ago and I hate it now, and at no point was I forced to start talking in buzzwords and neologisms.
It's not like legalization of marijuana is prohibition of not-marijuana.
But you can take my correct usage of, "literally", from my skeletal, clutching, tight little crocodile hands.

Hakka is one of the few major Chinese languages to preserve the three-way consonant distinction from Middle Chinese, although the voiced sequence now consists of implosive consonants, which is interesting in itself. Also, apparently the Hakka went to Taiwan because they were driven out of the mountains on the mainland due to racism and their refusal to submit to Han cultural norms.
There are also the mountain people who lived there before any Chinese at all, and are distant relatives of the Filipinos and look more African or Australian than Asian, but running into an aboriginal Taiwanese person is unfortunately somewhat unlikely
Actually, I was slightly wrong about the appearance of the indigenous peoples. They are often significantly darker in complexion than the Chinese Taiwanese, but they are way more Asian or Native American-like. Hell, look at this Tsou dude:
