Dominick the Christmas Donkey is the worst holiday song, no?

I mean I vaguely respect the “fuck ‘dem reindeer” spirit. But still

“My Two Front Teeth” is also pretty horrible

Why IS Sister Susie sitting on a thistle? And is that a nun or an actual sister?

Also gotta love/hate how The Beach Boys remade Little Duce Coupe as Little Saint Nick and it is soooooo bad.

Christmas By Myself This Year is the best GenX Christmas song

This is part 3 of the ض series, which I’ve appropriately titled: Ḍād-y issues (you know I had to). In this thread, I will discuss possible reasons of how and why the ض of the traditional Tajwīd tradition became corrupted.

Whatever I present in this particular thread is not all meant to be conclusive proof, as I currently lack the resources to undertake such an extensive project, but simply theories (good ones imo). I hope these theories can be explored in more depth in the future. Let’s dive in!

I established in the previous thread that scholars for centuries were pretty much all on the same page regarding ض/ ظ similarity. Considering the disparity between the classical and modern descriptions, surely you’d expect records of sound shifts occurring, right? Yes, kind of!

as soon as the pair arrived at the apartment, bakugou took a seat at the dining table and laid his head on the wooden surface.

camie set the pizza box down and sighed, plopping down in the chair next to her friend.

“was it that bad?”

bakugou lifted his head, running his hand through his hair for the millionth time.

“that fuckin pink haired fairy kissed him in front of me,” bakugou responded, clenching his fists.

“oh, yikes.”

“yikes what?” another voice added.

shinsou had just come out of his room with a handful of empty water bottles.

“oi, tinky winky come get some fuckin pizza. camie bought it for us.”

the purple haired boy placed his recycles in the bin before joining the other two at the table. he kept his eyes on the girl.

It’s #Monday, I’m boozing it up at a 4 seat bar, the #barkeep is a long pourer, and I’m all fucking set if I get something stuck between my teeth.👇🙃 #RandomThoughts #drinking #OutAndAbout

Shooting the shit with a friend, she’s proud to be doing well with her plants - unusual for her.

The key was a #video explaining the benefits of pruning.

She needs REASONS. She got them.

Apparently, pruning in a particular manner stimulates growth hormones.

Of course, this led to me initiating a discussion about the #movie I just watched on Hulu, called “The German Doctor.”

The main character was Josef Mengele. #ThisHappened

People, this is why I’m known in my circles as “The Black Hole Of Conversation.” SMTH
