I guess Jafar thought the idea of all genies being bound by default was ridiculous, too.

samus12345,

Yeah, the fact that all genies are bound to lamps there is dumb - one even gets created for Jafar. How does that make any sense, even in that fantastical setting? And it’s not like they all have to be bound, since they can be wished free.

Jafar wished to be “the world’s most powerful sorcerer.” so you’re right, he could have wished to be still more powerful. Or to be a free genie. Maybe there are universes where the Disney villain didn’t hold the idiot ball at the end and succeeded in their plans. Now that would be an interesting “What If” series!

I actually never knew until I was looking that picture up that it was a direct parody of the Trainspotting poster. Makes it even better!

Sure, but the problem is that rather than arguing the finer points of how to combat climate change, for example, we have to argue about whether truth is truth.

Yeah, pretty much, they just mash a bunch of words together.

The word comes ultimately from the Latin salmon, but we got it by way of French, as we did with so many other food words. The French, as was their wont, had swallowed up the Latin L in their pronunciation, so by the time we English borrowed the word, it was saumon, no L in the spelling and so no L in the pronunciation.

True, we kept the L, but we got the pronunciation from them.

He could have at least just left him folded instead of crumpling him up.

Not to me, I always though of space cadets as good-natured.

In the future, kids learn how to hand-write text that looks printed.

Not sure if I’ve experienced that, but I have watched something in English with no subtitles after watching something in another language with subtitles and been unable to understand what they’re saying until my brain adjusts.

I’ve never heard the term before. I guess that makes me extra old.

I never understood why he couldn’t just go onstage. Nobody can see what’s under the costume!
