Folks, if you're in the "Discover" feed & you respond to someone you don't follow and have never interacted with to argue with or "correct" them -- don't be surprised if that earns you an instant block.

Nope. That has sweet fuck all to do with the other shithead implying that Zia Yusuf is not, in fact, Zia Yusuf's real name just because Zia Yusuf doesn't use his full name.

Islamophobic comments aren't okay just because the Muslim in question is a piece of shit, Ronni. This isn't difficult to understand. Implying that Zia Yusuf isn't Zia Yusuf's real name is Islamophobic.

You & Ash really aren't any better than Yusuf or Johnson, no matter what you tell yourselves.

Your whole reply was bigoted, you bigoted prick. I'm not sure what sort of a gotcha you think this is.
soozbee.bsky.social
The guy is clearly a prick, but your comment is ignorant & bigoted. A man named Muhammad Ziauddin Yusuf being commonly known as Zia Yusuf is no less his "real" name than someone named Alexander Boris de Pfeffel Johnson being known as Boris Johnson.

KHN showing Jerry Bruckheimer sitting there made me wonder — are they gonna stick with that stupid wrestling belt again this year?

You seem to consider yourself a writer. Maybe you should ponder why so many people didn’t read your post the way you’re now claiming you meant it. One person misunderstanding is a reading comprehension issue. Everyone misunderstanding is a failure to write clearly.

When I moved out there in 1997, I had no intention of even pretending to be a Mariners fan. I’ve been a Cubs fan since I was a little girl. But that group of guys was hard not to fall in love with, so the Ms have been my other team since then.

Isn't it? They belong together.

Oh, for sure. Cubs-Mariners WS would simultaneously be my fondest baseball dream and my worst baseball nightmare. If neither of my teams makes it to their league CS, I'll be rooting for the Blue Jays.

"But you've clearly never heard of Trottiscliffe in Kent."

I have, actually. And I was also aware of how it's pronounced before you replied to me. I'm not sure why you'd make that assumption.

My 1st apartment in Seattle was 1 block away from RKCNDY, but I didn't move out there until '97, so the glory days were already behind it by then.

I mean, some of the Swedish names -- I totally get why they just accept the fact that they're going to be Americanized. But Liljegren deciding to *ask* people to do it after all this time is just never going to not baffle me.
soozbee.bsky.social
But Liljegren isn't all that hard to say fairly correctly & the way people were saying it when he was with the Leafs was pretty close (the 'e' sound is the trickiest bit), so why ask people to completely butcher it after all these years?

Yay! Howdy stranger!

Lol. I was just thinking about the song "One Piece at a Time" this morning, before I saw this lunacy. From anyone else, that song would have been considered a novelty song. I suppose, strictly speaking, it still was even from Cash, but somehow he pulls it off.

Wonder if @iirriiss.bsky.social will get active on here again now that hockey season's back?

I don't pay a whole lot of attention to off-season trades & stuff, so I expect I'll be saying, "Oh, he plays for them now?" well into November.

I lived in the region he's from (Skåne) and it's definitely not a weird regional variation or anything (and Skånska is probably the weirdest dialect of Swedish there is).
soozbee.bsky.social
As someone who used to speak Swedish pretty well, I'd like someone to crack the mystery of why Timothy Liljegren asked everybody to start pronouncing his surname wrong after several years of people pronouncing it reasonably close to correctly.
