'Merica, with all its diversity

Reply in thread

Highway systems are one of those subtle things where you're reminded that you're in another country.

The line markings, the signage vary slightly. The way on- and off-ramps are handled is a little different. That's the case in Europe. I bet there are enough people who can identify the country just by seeing the pedestrian traffic light.

the flies

In the cited study with buckets, it was shown that striped and spotted surfaces attract fewer flies.

That makes me think if Nguni cattle have an easier time with those pests.

If yes, that would be another plus for hardy landraces in place of overengineered, capitalmaxxed breeds.

It's slang grammar. The family are getting the notifications.

The "not" just shows that it is embarrassing for oop (see also the crying emoji).

Imagine oop covering their face with their hands and saying "oh no! Not this! Not my family getting these notifications!"
