Much to the dismay of newscasters everywhere who cannot pronounce this foreign name.

Locally, we have done what ‘Muricans do and have dropped the Spanish four-syllable pronunciation in favor of the three-syllable English pronunciation. Savin’ on syllables is the USA way :slight_smile:

Looking at the 2020 list of names for hurricanes, which ranges the gamut from sane to zany, from modern to ancient (eg: “Bertha; Fay”), I can only wonder “Who and where came up with these names?”, and the answer looks to be “The UN, in Geneva”. Suddenly it all makes sense.

Maybe only countries who get hit by hurricanes should get to name them? :rofl: :roll_eyes:

So what will be the penalty for this dummy planting these Chinese seeds?

Frankly, I’d be OK with deporting anyone who plants a foreign plant to the country of that plant’s origin. Especially if that foreign plant is wildly invasive, like bamboo or kudzu.

About 2 months ago I happened to be out in the kitchen while my mother was talking to my father about receiving a random package labeled as earrings from China but that they were actually seeds. She tried to bring the package over to me so I could look at the seeds and I backed away and said no I’m good LOL. They never left the plastic bag they were in and she threw them away the same day. Wasn’t until about a week or two ago I read an article about all this I thought to myself holy crap that was like 2 months ago that we received those. It’s a little late to tell us not to throw them in the trash at this point LOL!

I wonder how many of those seeds are in the landfill now because no one got the memo in time?

LOL probably the vast majority of them. Most of them are probably still in the plastic bag too! :sweat_smile::man_facepalming::man_shrugging:
