Big chairs… Must have a small one and he’s trying to make up for it. That’s what I would have thought of I went to church. But I don’t. I can now think other things 😜.
Making sonic memes and saying bazinga is gay because anything outside of the actual sexual preference is socially constructed “performance norms” and I can make up whatever the fuck I want.
I’m kind of pissed with people trying to push they mediocre agendas through memes. You have an opinion? Grow a pair and publish it in c/politicalmemes /s
To be fair, I just tried to get back into duolingo a few days ago and it is straight up bonkers trash now.
I learned many languages on it and I am incredibly disappointed that after I took a few years off traveling and came back, it is basically unusable at this point.
Here’s something I’ve been wondering: in Aliens, weren’t the Marines joking about the possibility of the creature on LV-426 being just a xenomorph? This suggested it was a kind of creature they’d encountered before, and wasn’t a major threat.
How did the Aliens come to be known as xenomorphs?
The simplest answer is that I’m remembering things wrong. If not, though, wtf?
I took that as they have encountered other species before, just nothing like the creature from the Alien franchise. The term xenomorph is just used to describe any creature not found on Earth, aka aliens.
This is backed by an earlier comment made during Ripley’s hearing with the company:
Insurance attorney: Are there any species like this hostile organism on LV-426? ECA representative: No, it’s a rock. No indigenous life.
Which would indicate they have encountered other aliens, just not this Alien.
The creature was named both Alien and Xenomorph because that’s what it is, but came to define the names and took “ownership” of the names, if you will.
Alien is a stupid name for an alien when you stop to think about it. Just like with the creature in Frankenstein, people are going to grab at any alternate name presented, cos it’s just too awkward to talk about otherwise.
