Hey Alhazred, where were you getting All Quiet on the Homefront? I thought it might be fun to try translating them. I can see the latest (from Dec 28) on Dagbladet.no, but not any others. I gave it a shot. All Quiet on the Homefront (Intet nytt fra hjemmefronten) is a Norwegian comic by Therese G. Eide, which is about raising three kids in Norway so far as I can tell.

Daddy Daze is far from the worst thing in this thread, even among comics that get posted ironically. It's maybe a little bland, but solidly okay. Here, have some Norwegian slice-of-life. I wrote a script to scrape Dagbladet's CDN, and I wound up finding 39 of these. I just started a new job so I don't have a ton of time to translate. Maybe I'll get to one or two a week.

It's Saturday, so once again I'm back at it translating Intet Nytt fra Hjemmefronten. We rejoin our heroes discussing the influx of tourists in their town. It looks like the author sometimes does these mini-arcs. I'll read ahead and translate the whole arc in the future.

JethroMcB posted:"Fancy Coffee Drinks" AKA Frappuccinos, the Milkshake You Have With Breakfast Radio Host is worth just about negative money nowadays. She's not raking in any significant amount of dough. $7 in coffee is two espresso drinks, maybe less if he's in a city and not going to Starbucks. It's a needless expense, but it's not the ridiculous extravagance you're making it out to be.

Cowslips Warren posted:I think I read every Bad Machinery posted and only remember the selkie story. It was drat impressive and I think the next one posted I must have missed a few, because I remember it was about time travel and it just kinda went nowhere and without the coolness of the selkie story. Fun art but I seriously cannot remember what any of the stories were other than that one. Bad Machinery's like that. It slips out of your brain, but leaves a pleasant aftertaste. The time travel story is kinda contrived, but my favorite line was "Keith is a mad name!"

When I was downloading all the Intet Nytt fra Hjemmefrontens, I had luck writing a program that just blindly guesses what the files might be called on the Dagbladet.no CDN. I could try doing the same thing for another comic if someone wanted.

Some Guy TT posted:My lack of retail experience is showing since it's not really clear to me why Coop would prefer to use the customer parking lot rather than the employee parking lot. In a big shopping mall, the employee parking lot is guaranteed to be the farthest possible parking area away from the mall's entrance. Back when I worked at Fry's electronics, the employee parking was around the side of the building, and our Loss Prevention person said it had the most cameras watching it so our cars were safer. It was still a little bit of a hike in the summer heat, but nowhere near as bad as a huge mall parking lot.

All you have to do is turn the period into a comma. "..., so the paramedics had to carry him out." becomes a subordinate clause, and everything works. I wouldn't mark off for that.

Critically, this is also not how landmines work. They explode when stepped on; they don't wait patiently while someone tries to defuse them.

Bear in mind FOOB was originally drawn 30 years ago, and in Canada. My breastfeeding friends are much more open about it in their homes or even in, like, apartment building public spaces.
