!gaming is a community for gaming noobs through gaming aficionados. Unlike !games, we don’t take ourselves quite as serious. Shitposts and memes are welcome.

Our Rules:

1. Keep it civil.

Attack the argument, not the person. No racism/sexism/bigotry. Good faith argumentation only.

2. No sexism, racism, homophobia, transphobia or any other flavor of bigotry.

I should not need to explain this one.

3. No bots, spam or self-promotion.

Only approved bots, which follow the guidelines for bots set by the instance, are allowed.

4. Try not to repost anything posted within the past month.

Beyond that, go for it. Not everyone is on every site all the time.

You just know the teen rating is because they are chugging sherry the entire game.

It's the healing potion, for sure.

I'll drink fino from the fridge. It seemed strange that he'd sip on amontiado straight up from a decanter. I don't know a lot about wine, though.

That and some of Roz's and Martin's more colorful dialog.

Rated T for Britishisms.

Frasier: Is Dad home?

Daphne: Nope, I haven't seen him since he knocked me up early this morning.

Frasier: [putting his coat up, slows and turns.]

Frasier: What?

Daphne: Knocked me up. Woke me up. It's an English expression. What does it mean here?

Frasier: Oh, something else. You'd definitely be awake for it, though.

fun fact: this expression comes from the time before alarm clocks (or clocks in general), where towns had someone whose job it was to go round the town and knock on windows and doors in the morning, waking people up. Knocker-uppers.

They would also wait for the men to leave for work and then attempt to seduce the women who stayed behind. It lead to a lot of contention from the resultant pregnancies. This angered a lot of men and women who left for the new world. This is why Americans use the phase to mean something related but functionally different. I made all of that up, but thank you for citing an actual historical fact that added context to my previous comment.

I thought maybe it had to do with the racy theme song about “tossing salads” and “scrambled eggs”

[–] Remember_the_tooth@lemmy.world 3 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

If I remember correctly, he tossed so many salads that he didn't know what to do with them afterward.

They’re calling again

These thirty, thicc, thirsty thots thralled by thoughtful, theatrical therapist.
