    You know I feel a lot better about life now that I have a pair of fire extinguishers mounted on the wall within arms reach most of my day.

    Remember: when something in your kitchen is on fire, it’s a good idea to pull your phone out and take a pic before getting the fire extinguisher. You never know how many likes you could have get.

      I wouldn’t call it a japanese accent, that’s a bit different, but ルール is the loan word for rule, approximated with japanese syllabary of course. So it’s ru-ru instead of rool. The r is also kinda rolled like a Spanish R, between and R and L sounds.

      A japanese accent tends to have awkward stress-accent as well as R and L sounding too similar if not identical, and some general phonemes just not sounding quite right since japanese doesn’t have them (the ae sound for instance). Words that end in consonants can be tricky too, but japanese has a few in very casual speech (mostly by just leaving off the u in tsu) so that concept isn’t so foreign.

      When I started learning Japanese at uni, I overheard two higher semester students talking. One asked the other what the Japanese word for “duck” was and he replied “da-kku”. That still amuses me. I am a man of simple needs.

    Here the Ohhhhhhh functions more like the extension of the last syllable so I’d read it as garlic tooooooooooooooooooast.

    Your mistake was inviting a fire demon to dinner, it’s better to invite them to brunch
