It's all golden brown with vijayanand
I'm so laid back, I'm horizontal
Twixt Bengaluru and hosapete
(Not Bangalore and hospet)
To think that I nearly missed it
And caused further massive chaos
Due to constant forced Sim swappery

Tmesis is a linguistic device where a word or phrase is split into two parts with another word inserted between them, often for emphasis or comic effect. For example, saying "abso-bloody-lutely" instead of "absolutely" demonstrates this technique.
tmesis also occurs in German, Ancient Greek, Latin, Irish, and Tagalog.
now get tmesfuckingising!

He came dancing across the water
With his galleons and guns
cortes did not use galleons! he had caravels and brigantines
Looking for the new world
And that palace in the sun
On the shore lay Montezuma
moCtezuma was in his capital, tenochtitlan
With his coca leaves and pearls
coca didnt grow in mexico
In his halls, he often wandered
With the secrets of the world
And his subjects gathered 'round him
Like the leaves around the tree
In their clothes of many colors
For the angry gods to see
And the women all were beautiful
come off it!
And the men stood straight and strong
really neil?
They offered life in sacrifice
So that others could go on
no! The Aztecs sacrificed humans to establish and maintain relations with their gods, who needed their blood and hearts to survive.
Hate was just a legend
stuff and nonsense!
And war was never known
the mexica were often at war and subjected many other peoples
The people worked together
And they lifted many stones
And they carried them to the flatlands
But they died along the way
And they built up with their bare hands
What we still can't do today
of course we could build pyramids etc today!
And I know she's living there
And she loves me to this day
I still can't remember when
Or how I lost my way
He came dancing across the water

What a killer
lemmings stupidly walk off cliffs and fall to their deaths en masse, right?
fucking no!
from britannica.com -
"Deliberate fraud. For the 1958 Dinsey nature film White Wilderness, filmmakers eager for dramatic footage staged a lemming death plunge, pushing dozens of lemmings off a cliff while cameras were rolling. The images—shocking at the time for what they seemed to show about the cruelty of nature and shocking now for what they actually show about the cruelty of humans—convinced several generations of moviegoers that these little rodents do, in fact, possess a bizarre instinct to destroy themselves."
fuck dinsey!
so ladies, strap up your whale bone corsets extra tight and stick to waddling like uncomfortable penguins. who needs to breathe when you look so dainty!
we all know schadenfreude, doppelganger and zeitgeist but german is rammed with glorious compound nouns...
die Tollwut - rabies
The ‘Toll’ in Tollwut doesn’t mean great, but ‘crazy’. ‘Toll’ is a old word for ‘verrückt’. Tollwut therefore is ‘crazy rage’.
(see also italian - rabbia, spanish - rabia and french - rage)
die Nacktschnecke - slug
This is literally a naked snail.
der Zungenbrecher - tongue twister
In German they don't twist your tongue. They break it.
das Luftschloss - air castle
This is a dream that will likely never come true.
das Kopfkino - playing a scenario out in your mind
We all have it, but the Germans call it a head cinema.
das Drachenfutter - dragon feed
What do you feed a dragon? Who is the dragon? The dragon is your loved ones and the feed is a gift you give. This is a gift given to a loved one as an apology.
das Hüftgold - hip gold
The German expression is so much friendlier than the English "spare tire" or "muffin top". The extra fat around your midsection in German is hip gold
die französische Krankheit - syphilis
This is an older word, but it was too funny not to have on the list. The French disease is syphilis.
(see also many similar in various european languages)
die Windpocken - chicken pox
While the English word is likely from a resemblance of the small red marks that a chicken would leave, if they pecked at you, the German word is about how it spreads. Wind pox are easily transmitted in the air with the wind, therefore "Windpocken".
das Fernweh - far pain
the opposite of homesickness, a desire to travel
der Kummerspeck - grief/sadness fat
Many people on the internet think this translates as grief bacon, but they are stretching the meaning a bit. It is more closely related to the word fat, as other translations for “Speck” includes “fat” and “lard”.
das Fremdschämen - foreign shame
Shame for something someone else has done
die Torschlusspanik - gate closing panic
Torschlusspanik derived from the times where cities had city walls and gates, at a certain time gates were closed overnight. If you came too late, you had to spend the night outside of the city. Nowadays Torschlusspanik describes the fear to miss something important, like marriage or having children.
der Treppenwitz - staircase joke
A joke you come up with when you are walking away from an argument
(see also french - 'l'esprit de l'escalier')

An idea that you have when you are drunk
verschlimmbessern - to better worsen

Sind sie nicht wunderbar?
The act of regarding something as worthless or insignificant. It is one of the longest words in the English language, originating from a combination of several Latin terms that all imply little or no value.
"action or habit of estimating as worthless," 1741, a combination of four Latin words (flocci, nauci, nihili, pilifi) all signifying "at a small price" or "for nothing," which were listed together in a rule of the well-known Eton Latin Grammar.

if you find yourself wandering the streets of tokyo or any japanese city/town
many of the restaurants will have delicious looking display dishes in their windows
if you didnt know better (and i didnt)
you might wonder how quickly they go orf and if its expensive to waste so much food
well, its a non issue
they are fake food!
originally hand made from wax or vinyl resin
there are now plastic ones for gaijin tourists
after being educated
i marvelled at these creations
often lurking outside restaurants admiring these pieces of art
pondering
how can they make them look so hyper realistic and delectable?
and why hasnt anybody else thought of this genius idea?
now after countless blue moons of occasionally checking the (obscenely prohibitive) prices to purchase one online
a young superstar of my conoscimento purchased one
in old osaka town

ive met at least five cunx in my life...
sure it was to promote their third album
which wasnt as mind blowing as the first two
and bernie butler had left
but i was excited to see suede
even if it was an hour and half away by coach
(which might as well have been on the moon according to some)
i got two tickets and was happy enough to gift one (when none of my rubbish mates were up for it/were too poor) to that sweet curious welsh chica i had worked with
where i couldnt understand a word callers were saying
and had to say some greeting in cymraeg
(which must have sounded hilarious in a strayan accent)
then i got a thunderbastard of a flu
and felt dreadful
so neither of the tickets got used
(woesome were the days pre wonderful tixel)
and
i didnt see suede in newport
nb the infants were NOT known as babycham and champa was not their daddy!
it is situated less than 40 kms from funky hoi an town, where you can buy natty clathes, see pretty glowing indentified flying objects, admire the pretty fusion of vietnamese, japanese and chinese architecture, eat great food, chat in english with friendly students and laze about in the pool of a yellow hotel long after check out time!
unfortunately due to pigrizia and pig ignorance i didnt know about Mỹ Sơn, so i didnt get there when in hoi an. che rimbambito!
so if you ever find yourself enjoying the delights of central vietnam, heed my words and go on my son and hãy đi xem nhé! !

so old mate タク is moving to サンフランシスコ
perhaps he will feel some familiarity
after all
there have long been (sometimes interned) japanese communities there
and his english is not even slightly shabby
its his turn to be a 外人 again
im sure he will check his visa status before arriving at the airport this time
at least he will have a little more elbow room!

lunar house is found in croydon
a rather ordinary bit of south london
it didnt use to be
since jebus was a lad
it was part of slurrey
until voracious greater london gobbled it up
to obtain more space for financial services and giant houses for russian/arab plutocrats
i have spent way too long there
not just because i had fam to crash with
on one of my multitudinous traverses of big town
lunar house is home to UK immigration
where one has to go and wait for countless dreary hours for your number to be called
with any visa type issues
(and you had better hope you had all the correct paperwork!)
in the second half of the 1390s
i had plenty of those due to
lost passports
renewing of ancestry visas
applications for indefinite leave to remain (unhinged)
a lunar hour is more than 700 gaian hours
and with some undoubtedly impressive tech manouevres
the department of immigration has managed to implement it in real time
in their particular corner of lahndahn
to leave the (usually) unsatisfied applicant staggering disoriented
out into stark grey of london daytime
almost a month after they entered
and in these unimaginably lengthy hours
smart phones werent a thing
so if you hadnt planned ahead and brought a few copies of war and peace with you
you would feel your ears and nose prolonging
as the present elongates beyond the rows of chairs and perspex screens
engulfing all sense of time and space
as you longed for a mercifully quick death
to bring an end to your interminable tedium
and nary a selenite to spy

An abecedarius is a special type of acrostic in which the first letter of every word, strophe or verse follows the order of the letters in the alphabet.
now go and make an abecedarius with the names of the songs by your fave band, put it in a flask and send it into space. (unless you have awful taste, if so, follow steps 1 and 2, then shove it violently up your behind.)
nb. para los miles de hispanohablantes entre ustedes, no es lo mismo que un abecedario, que es una lista del alfabeto. es un AMIGO FALSO!
