Usually its like just a few words sprinkled in, or at most like one or two lines…

Literally I feel like they’re just trying to say: “Hey this is a foreign language I’m sooo cooool!”

    I’m probably gonna fuck this up, it’s something of an old ‘meme’, before I was even born in 1982. Anyways, an old riddle I once heard, from a book written before I was born…

    Riddle…

    • You’re stuck in a room, no windows and no doors.
    • All you have is a table and a mirror, how you get out?

    Answer…

    • You look in the mirror and see what you saw.
    • You use the saw to cut the table in half.
    • Two halves make a whole.
    • You climb through the hole and you’re out!

    Yeah, works better verbally LMFAO!

      If I, as a child in the 80s had said that to my mom, she would have said “Quit being asinine. That would never work.”

      Yeah. I suppose it wouldn’t…

      And that boys and girls, is how you give a child depression, and a reason to question if talking at all is even worth it.

      Hint: No. It’s not.

        My parents gave me the book of riddles. Wish I still had it…

        That’s the only depression here, that I don’t still have the book ☹️

        Double edit: I rather liked the book.
