"You can't pay too much for a good pair of shoes"

Thirty Helens agree.

People forget the whole phrase. It's "Great minds thing alike, but fools rarely differ."

The German version is very straightforward: "Two idiots, one idea."

English: "Great minds think alike".

Here's an example of a phrase that's charmingly positive in English but self-deprecating in German:

Turns out the basic figures in the transformers siege line are basically minicons, and my sister is back in the hospital for another psychotic break. It's been an emotional day, and it's not even 1 pm yet.

Maybe, or maybe it'd be more like wood? Y'know, bashing each other with planks.

Wouldn't pillow fights be like slapping each other with meat?

RODO ROLLA DA

they hit each other with full sized vehicles

Also, do Softmus Prime and Slumblebee engage in pillow fights?

Feathertron?

@Penn Megadown, maybe?

The kernel.

Who gives the orders in cyberwarfare?

I wonder what Megatron would end up in that context?

It's not "Optiplush"... it's "Softimus Prime"

I've got the two plushes from the first movie, they're great

Still have mine, although Optiplush Prime is kind of discolored

They came out around the time of the first movie with the big merch push, but they were distinctly G1 and everything else wasnt, IIRC

Take another shot Wonko.

prime the lost season

I did not even know those things were a thing. I guess they didn't do very well cause they didn't make more of them.

Pfft, Hasbro did that 12 years ago with Slumblebee and Optiplush Prime

Well, this past Christmas I did see licensed plush Transformers that went from their robot to vehicle mode by turning inside out just like popples.

Why DIDN'T transformers make plushes ala popples?

Design in mixed media and make him out of actual flannel.

Make his fur a red and black flannel pattern

Bonus points if you can work in a red and black flannel pattern on his chest plate.

Might as well make it cliched. Lumberjack moose male and aristocratic deer female.

Or their aristocratic deer.

Thinking of making a pair of moose Transformer OCs, male and female. Thier a lovey dovy pair of lumberjacks

they also have NOTORIOUSLY poor protection on their servers. do NOT keep a credit card on file there.

i just checked my past tfsource orders, and theres no sales tax charge

They haven't (yet, at least) on the stuff I currently have in my Stack. Haven't had them ship anything for a while, though, so I don't know if they will when I do...

Does TFSource charge sales tax?

That's because, once upon a time, the people whom owned the animals weren't the people whom butchered them. So the pig was owned by a saxon who spoke english, but butchered by a french speaker. So a pig got cut up into PORC chops.

Hank Pym<<<< Hank Hill

In that case, I don't see anything wrong with English speakers calling it what it is in English. Even though we technically use the French words for what comes out of it. "Beef", "pork"...

I’d like a Siege Thundercracker who has his regular blue colors Cybertronian jet mode which transforms into a robot mode with his Action Master colors. Looks like it could be possible.

The cow was slaughtered in the abattoir.

It's not a pretty name: abattoir is literally just the french word for slaughterhouse.

Giving it a pretty name won't make it a pretty place.

I do believe there is an aphorism about the U.S.A. and yogurt being different because after 200 years the latter will have a culture.

There's another word for "abattoir"?! Honestly you people, "slaughterhouse" is a bit on the nose.

I learned this week that the French-style term abattoir is prevalent in the UK/Commonwealth in place of where U.S.-American Anglophones would say "slaughterhouse". Fascinating.

Nonsense. Everybody loves all my posts.

Or dislike them.

Wish we could like the shout posts...
