A paw-paw is PAPAYA PAPAYA PAPAYA PAPAYA PAPAYA PAPAYA PAPAYA PAPAYA PAPAYA PAPAYA PAPAYA PAPAYA PAPAYA PAPAYA PAPAYA PAPAYA PAPAYA PAPAYA PAPAYA PAPAYA PAPAYA and I don’t give a bloody hell what you ignorant Yankees say otherwise.

:Papaya—it is an underrated, tasty, fibrous fruit good for any stomach ailment due to it’s high content of pepsin Full stop.

@Mimishu1995 I ran across the word Tsundere when reading about Anime. It’s a Japanese word for a specific type of character development of which we have no one-word equivalent in English. The best we can say is that the character is “complicated.” It requires a whole paragraph to describe it in English. Good word. We should incorporate it into our language.

Mimishu1995's avatar

Vinegas
@Espiritus_Corvus I guessed as much, because there is no way someone without knowledge of anime can know about it. I asked because I’m surprised that you read anime too.

212th MASH

The people of the 212th MASH, the most decorated forward army field hospital in U.S. Army history, from Korea to Iraq—stretched so thin and operating so close the lines in Iraq, it was nearly overrun by the enemy. It had the honor to be the last MASH unit to be converted to a Combat Support Hospital in 2006. Now it can operate even closer to the line.

@Espiritus_Corvus

from Dr Herman Smith:

Of course when the atlatl was used in combat it was a battle atlatl. For ceremonial purposes a gourd rattle was attached, making it a rattle, battle atlatl. After the Maya acquired horses and livestock, the herds were guarded with a saddle, cattle, rattle, battle atlatl. Slaves, on the other hand were guarded with a chattel, saddle, cattle, rattle, battle atlatl.
