3:03 in Spain they say “Tio” to everyone too. Also means uncle.

[@DKF_oli]

i’m pretty sure we say this in all spanish speaking countries 😊 i’m actually very surprised they all never heard of that? i’ve heard it in english but not as much.

[@chassaj1105]

As an audio listener, I'd like to thank you for going and getting the microwave

[@justdoeverything8883]

I too want to "squirt out beyond KZbin". William has a way with words hahaha.

[@justdoeverything8883]

Also, I love that you leave in the whole conversation about the size of Malaysia, it feels like my ADHD brain at 1:00 in the morning, but I don't have to physically do the googling myself.

[@EclipseDaBossHooplah]

3:21 I didn't realize this was also a thing in other countries. In Morocco culture, we also call family friends uncle and auntie as a sign of respect. We don't do it with random people tho, just people you know

[@SierraLimaOscar]

Yep same in many eastern European countries. Most of Asia too.

[@justmerc1642]

Can confirm, in the Philippines “Tito” (uncle) is reserved for family and family friends. Strangers tend to be either “kuya” (bro/older brother) or “manong” (old man) depending on their age

its funny that they actually made the 100th episode being the one featuring Nigel Red even though this was recorded earlier pls a Nigel Nigel collab in 150th ep

[@napalmholocaust9093]

My brother cooked at a Midwest truckstop and the Arab owners had an indentured slave that didn't speak English. The only thing I ever got was milkshakes, it was the only thing on the menu they didn't take off a half eaten plate and put on another to send back out. They were serving trash. A kid I went to school with, his mom was a haggard lot lizard there, knocking on Every truck door. I was at another one years later. Don't worry about sleeping in them, we had half a dozen in the lounge and never bothered people with their heads down at a table. We had like 280 staying every night in the lot with room for a few dozen inside. It was what we did. No one should feel odd about sleeping in one. You're a hell of a lot safer inside at a table then in the back of the parking lot. We didn't even know wtf was going on back there half the time. Cameras can't see 💩 between or behind rows of semis despite have like 20 of them all over outside. I cooked. One guy used to call from like 400 miles away to see if I was working. I hooked everyone up because our prices were ridiculous. Nothing crazy, 3 slices of bacon instead of two, extra tomato, 15% more fries. That's it. I didn't say anything to anyone and I started getting tips and double orders to take one away. I turned the clientele around by not being the drone progeny of a corporate monster. It made me happy, people going bananas over food I cooked is always nice. I was fired for not working full time when I was hired as part time and was fine with that. She said something akin to; "the rules have changed. Pray I change them no further." Then had a change of heart and fired my by writing it on my paycheck envelope. Enjoy the story... or not. Wish it was telling ya about my Nobel prize instead, but ya play the cards you're delt.

As a trucker who drives 12hrs a day ... i cant agree more😂

[@dangerkingston]

Same here driver... It's even crazier here up north; Canadian hours of service allows for 13 hour drive times and a 16-hour shift window 😵 I don't know why I love the job so much, but I do 🤷... I have a university degree, I've worked in a variety of other industries, but I've never had a job that scratches a brain itch quite like this one

[@AndyTrucker1985]

​@kingstos oh i know how it is in Canada. im on Ontario driver. Usually 12 hrs a day for my dedicated "local" run but definitely run into my 16 with wait times pretty often then get up and do it all over again 5 days a week

My microwave has two dials: Power and minutes - and a button to open the door. With that it implements heating, unfreeze and grill, just with markings on the dials. I went through all the features of microwaves and finally realized that it's stupid to pay 50-100€ more for more buttons and more confusion.

Damn will, "what do you call it when someone works for you and you don't pay them?" AWESOME

[@NanakiPL]

My microwave has 6 buttons (my guess was 8) and a knob. Cool thing about the knob is that it has two functions. When it is in clear, turning it to the right sets the time (at full power). Turning it to the left you can set the defrost based on weight (in increments of 100g). Never used it. It's always the start/+30s and sometimes the stop/clear button. These two buttons is all that a microwave needs.

[@mre16]

okay I NEED them to see this: The best microwave I ever owned that my wife hated. SINGLE BUTTON. A Dial, more specifically, the first 1/4 spin was stepping up by 1 second to like 20 seconds, the next quarter was by 5 seconds increments up to like a minute, then the it jumped up to 30 second intervals after like 3 or 4 minutes. A full wrist rotation would get you up to like 5 minutes, and if you spun the dial at any point during cookie it would add that time to it, like a +30 second button. My wife made me get rid of it because she thought it was stupid.

[@il0vewikipedia]

I've been microwave-free for 10 years now. 0 buttons

[@BloodAsp]

If you use cellular devices, a car key fob, or wifi, you are still using microwaves. I know that's not your point, but do with that information what you wish.

[@il0vewikipedia]

@@BloodAsp you are right about WiFi. Car key fobs usually operate at 315 MHz in North America and 433 MHz anywhere else. But there's other stuff like zigbee microwaving me. I'm not concerned about microwaves I just realized I don't really need one.

[@BloodAsp]

@@il0vewikipedia The microwave frequency band is classically defined to be from 300 MHz to 300 GHz. This is a very wide range, as it corresponds to wavelengths from 1 m to 1 mm λ. Though, you are correct in the sense that most people do consider the microwave range to begin at 1 GHz commonly. More to topic though: Do you use an induction stove, or what is your choice of implement?

[@GermanMythbuster]

No one has ever been microwave free, we get bombarded with RF from space and high energy particles that create RF in our atmosphere. So even cavemans haven't be "microwave free" 😂🤣

Correct me if im wrong guys but i reckon it was very intentional to have the lower class of society be forced into these specific places, rather than them going there for the amenities it is the amenities that were put there after the fact. I feel that impoverished down on their luck people have no other option than those places like skidrow or the tenderloin and that is by design (teaspoon of salt im not bright)

[@Snoodle829]

AFAIK yeah, the so-called "ghetto" is typically engineered by white society in order to keep marginalized people confined to a certain area. Red-lining was a particularly intense example of this, along with the strategic placement of highways to keep poor people who couldn't afford a car from leaving the ghetto.
