Q: An amazing piece of trivia: False connection between Paper Moon and Dead End

You'd have to know both movies well to understand/appreciate this: In Dead End, the Bogart character, back in the old neighborhood, goes to see his mother, who, far from being happy to see him, excoriates him -- it is not a happy reunion and he will never see her again. The actress is Marjorie Ma...

Q: Was Mirage (Syndrome's assistant) complicit in the murders of all those supers in "The Incredibles"?

In "The Incredibles" (2004), it is clearly established that the female character Mirage willingly serves as the "main bad guy's" (Syndrome's) executive secretary / right-hand woman. (It is also suggested that there exists some personal emotional relationship between them - whether that relationsh...

@M.A.R. Gol standalone means circle or circular. But in golmaal, it's not used that way.. it’s just a coincidence that a string “gol” appears in the movie’s name.

@M.A.R. i think Gul is what means flower..

@AnkitSharma oh it's a show then it's going to be stretched for no good reason.. I don't think I'm going to watch it

@ankii Some variation in pronunciation is almost inevitable after two millenia

@ankii Scorsese says shows are artsier these days. I think he's right.

Pick the right show, and let them stretch it as much as they want

11:42 AM

@AnkitSharma Don't throw the baby out with the bathwater. Unless you're saying the first six seasons are as bad as the last two.

Ankit Sharma

@M.A.R. but it could have been better if in seaosn 6 end whitewalker come and kill all to set peace

M.A.R.

Yes, one big persistent flaw with making shows is the creators become really good at twisting things, not so much at ending arcs

GoT declined in quality only when Martin didn't catch up

Ankit Sharma

@M.A.R. Now martin is so scared to even catch up so making spinoff shows instead

M.A.R.

My speculation is the Dany ending is probably what he was going for anyway, and seeing how easily empires can fall, he's hesitant and careful not to make any 'mistakes'

Although TBF, expanding the universe is one common thing writers do when their franchise takes off.

And the Dany ending, with the same essential developments in the plot, could have been perceived as really good, if everything wasn't so rushed.

M.A.R.

12:04 PM

In fact, if Dany suddenly turns evil in the books, I wouldn't at all be surprised.

From what I gather, certain depictions in the show are way more black and white than Martin intends

Apparently the Arya in the show is much different, and not in a good way

Ankit Sharma

I don't mind evil dany, I never even liked her but there should be a process to reach there

@M.A.R. I think Gul and Gol are quite different in pronunciation..

Q: Did Murder She Wrote plan for a handsome young man in each episode?

I started re-watching Murder She Wrote. When I started the second season, I realized that I was seeing a handsome young man in almost every episode.

Q: The inside Man logic

M.A.R.

@ankii they have the same consonants. I'm fairly convinced they share the same root in Persian and Hindi, you can check out an etymology and correct my assumption otherwise. And Persian Gol is not pronounced Gaul, its vowel is like the first vowel in "Morning"

@AnkitSharma no windows + prnt scrn?

A: Significance of Hindi words in Orochimaru's theme song?

The words "Dil and "khamosh" are used in both Hindi and Urdu. The other words 'baat', 'na' and 'kar' are of Sanskrit origin. Kar is derived from the root word 'karma', 'na' from 'na' (meaning 'no/don't') and 'baat' from the word 'वार्ता ' i.e varta. Let me explain in detail: वार्ता -------.>...

I am confused about this answer

It's well researched but don't answer the exact question

beating around the bush but upvote worthy

I noticed the same black screen issue using Google to access Amazon.

This is NOT an Amazon issue. It is a browser issue.

As a test, I opened Amazon in Firefox, and "print screen" worked fine.

Based on a comment above, updating to Google Chrome may solve the problem as well.

M.A.R.

Well, it's saying they're not meant to be Hindi, but Persian

That's a satisfactory answer in my book

Ankit Sharma

wtf, i don't rmemeber password for firefox, I don't even have firefox for now

M.A.R.

You're using Edge?

Ankit Sharma

@M.A.R. google chrome and all complain said it's chrome issue with prime, maybe exes :D

M.A.R.

I dunno, Google is getting more and more shameless about invading your privacy

Ankit Sharma

4:14 PM

@M.A.R. but but that song is hindi song and Hindi is not a pure language, it's mixture of sanskrit , urdu, farsi and persian

M.A.R.

I'm stuck with chrome, cause I'm too lazy to move things elsewhere, but you should consider it

Ankit Sharma

Hindi was kind of developed as common languge between pre britisher invaders and localites

M.A.R.

@AnkitSharma Persian and Hindi are of the same origin. It's not impossible for a word to go back and forth between the two and sustain some changes, but I'd think the influence is small

Of course, I can't speak Hindi

Ankit Sharma

@M.A.R. I have my login saved in chrome and I like it more the firefox. But yeah google know abotu me more then my whole family and bf combined

M.A.R.

That they know isn't a problem, that's natural. That they want to know when you don't want them to, and that they enable tracking companies to track you, is

Ankit Sharma

4:17 PM

@M.A.R. My point was Naruto used a song which is hindi or urdu ( as per older answer, which I disagree) , lyrics can be derivative word of persian or urdu or gibrishology but what is teh significance of it

@M.A.R. Like me getting gay ads in social network where I am faking to be staright?

M.A.R.

shrug there can be many benefits to knowing the etymology, or none at all.

Ankit Sharma

Also tiktok was mostly showing me gay ads, I am sure it's there own ad system but is it for staright too I wonder

M.A.R.

@AnkitSharma like trying to find out a search you performed with a VPN and in incognito was actually you

Ankit Sharma

@M.A.R. that's why I said worth upvote for so much efforts

@M.A.R. I can't do so much efforts also my isnat is enough to prove my sexulaity if anyone try enouh

I can't care too much about my privacy either. These days, keeping private impacts UX heavily

@M.A.R. the examples were not perfect.. Consider this: poll vs pull. That's the difference between gol and gul.

M.A.R.

@ankii No, it's not. Consider this: What's the likelihood that two languages refer to the same thing with the same consonants?

M.A.R.

ankii

@M.A.R. okay maybe we have bad Persian/ Urdu ..

what do we call them ?

poets ?

ghazal singers ?

Ankit Sharma

dancers?

M.A.R.

@ankii What does that even mean?

ankii

4:46 PM

@M.A.R. that the people I've heard speak gol and gul speak it very differently.

even when they're speaking in Urdu

you're the first Urdu speaker to tell me that they're pronounced the same.

M.A.R.

I'm a Persian speaker, and I don't say they're pronounced the same.

I say they have the same origin

What you can do to prove me wrong is to prove they're false cognates

False cognate

False cognates are pairs of words that seem to be cognates because of similar sounds and meaning, but have different etymologies; they can be within the same language or from different languages, even within the same family. For example, the English word dog and the Mbabaram word dog have exactly the same meaning and very similar pronunciations, but by complete coincidence. Likewise, English much and Spanish mucho which came by their similar meanings via completely different Proto-Indo-European roots. This is different from false friends, which are similar-sounding words with different meanings...

ankii

" I don't say they're pronounced the same." then we're good ! :)

we would be good even if you didn't say that.. ;) but better now.

okay bye
gotta eat food

Ankit Sharma

@M.A.R. why to prove? I mean we can just make a statement and leave the discussion :p

M.A.R.

@AnkitSharma Well, "proving" things is often impossible. But you can show overwhelming evidence that the moon landings exist, and let people make their own conclusions

Ankit Sharma

Wow prime also have multiple profile thingy

@ankii When did I say that? I scrolled up and did not see a single message where I said that!

Ankit Sharma

@M.A.R. there is a moon? I though it was giant CCTV setup by americans to spy us

M.A.R.

@AnkitSharma Using multiple profiles per email or multiple emails linked together?

ankii

by "that" I mean this whole message "I'm a Persian speaker, and I don't say they're pronounced the same."

M.A.R.

I am going to have a little anesthesia in a few days and I'm trying to explain to my friend that sometimes people react strangely to it.

I am sure I remember a TV show in the US about 15 or 20 years ago that lasted only a short time, and it took place in a recovery room. The plots were centered around doing strange things to people (interrogation or otherwise messing with the person waking up).

But I can find no trace of this when searching. I wonder if I imagined the show while I was under anesthesia? :-)
