The real reason why Mistral Le Chat was launched
I’m sure it’s nothing new. They are used to the confusing nature of English, as us anglophones have been yelling “seal egg!” (phoque oeuf) for years, and seals are mammals, yo.
Mammals have eggs. They are just usually very small. Except for platypus.
The only requirement for being a mammal is nipples. Or, more specifically, mammary glands.
Fur and three inner-ear bones and a broad neocortex are important, too…but not as big as nipples.
I have nipples Greg; can you milk me?
Ok, but then what about smurfs

purrrrrrrrrrr
I farted.
I told this to some French speaking friends when I first found out a few years ago and they were totally non-plussed. Seems like only native anglophones enjoy this fact.
Then again, in France younger people might use the English word “cool” despite the fact it sounds like the French for ass (“cul”). Probably used to it.
Cool doesn’t sound like cul, it’s sounds like coule
Ah yeah you wouldn’t say the L at the end of ‘cul’, right? Sometimes in English people don’t make the L sound in ‘cool’ if they are trying to be particularly cool.
Ye, it’s pronounced like Q. That’s why toilet paper is often shortened to pt (papier toilette) but also to pq (papier cul)
That Phil Fish? Where’s Fez 2!?
Pretty sure he said fuck it, took his ball and went home on that one a while ago.
Yeah it’s 15 years past time to expect anything else from him. Just surprised to see his name pop up.
He’s occasionally entertaining to follow on Mastodon. Doesn’t post a lot but gives zero fucks
Fez is soooo good!
francophones pronounce “chat” like anglophones: \tʃat\
So it’s just Zoomer-speak (“Chat, I farted”) instead?
The funny part is we decided to pronounce “chat” in perfect english, but the remaining letters will stay french no matter what.
Chat, is this fart real?
I was going to high school in France when Saw 6 came out.
Everyone was calling it sausage - was pretty funny at the time.
Saw Six / saucisse
I’m a non native English speaker and I’ve never heard it pronounced like the letters would be pronounced like in my native language. Always like English (with an accent). Do french speakers do that?
They do. Otherwise it would sound like Chat JPT. So they say Chat J’ai Pété
Hold up, Phil Fish?
“Suck my dick, choke on it” Phil Fish?
This is the 58th time I’ve seen this
