Interesting. How did she choose a middle eastern language over something more common; e.g. Spanish or French?

Yeah there is no way she's Arabic herself or military intelligence.

Something about bomb.. Someone is good, maybe god? If the government picks this up, its a joke... Or at least an attempt at one.

I had an intermediate class and this gay dude was in it and he tried to teach the class Arabic one day on break. I paid no attention at all, but had I, I might be able to help you out.

Muslims, for the most part, don't use toilet paper.

ETA: I am making and educated guess that they are Muslim but am fully aware that, due to the large Christian population over there, they might not be. Happy, Mo?

I can read Arabic numerals.


It looks like they're complaining about a copper merchant on that scrap.

Educated guess. They are from Syria. They isn't any T.P. on the list. And I'm profiling. Chances of people here from Syria being Muslim are quite high.

I tell you, it was of inferior quality! Ea-nasir only wants copper of fine quality!

Syria also had a large Christian population until people like you supported U.S. and Israel actions to destabilize the country.

They are building an Eggs Erroneous machine in their basement. They have their Ramadan lights on so I'll keep an eye on them.
Anyone remember the thread from about 10 years ago here about the possibly-abandoned house in a subdivision that had its Christmas lights on in Summertime?

She's from that part of the world. She grew up mostly in Egypt and Lebanon.

We mostly get along fine. She does have this really intense disdain for dogs, but I just laugh at it. I need a wife more than a dog.

So relatable, I'm always writing things out on scraps of cardboard, then ripping it up.

Digging through people's garbage is trashy, btw
