American rednecks call petroleum "gas" .... It's a liquid. If you can't figure out the difference between a gas and a liquid, you have mental problems.

All Americans call it gas. It is short for gasoline, which is synonymous with petrol.

It's a liquid

Yes, but we're not referring to the state of matter when we say "gas." As Adam explained, we use a shortened form of the word "gasoline" in America. It's actually more accurate than "petroleum", as there are many different petroleum derived products. Gasoline is the specific mixture usually used as car fuel.

Also, words can have multiple meanings. "Bow" can refer to the weapon that shoots arrows, but "bow" can also refer to a decorative ribbon you put in your hair.

Actually, since we mentioned states of matter, plasma is another good example. "Plasma" can refer to this, but "plasma" can also refer to a part of your blood.

Homophones be esoteric as hell, apparently.

Pretty much. Context is important in language. "Bow", "bow", "bow", and "bow" are four different words despite being spelled and pronounced exactly the same.

And then there's "bow", which is a homograph of "bow", but a homophone of "bough."

There's only so many sounds we can make, so languages get wacky in certain areas. Since, sense, cents, scents.

Bow is a part of a ship, right?

The English language goes overboard with the homophones, homographs and homonyms IMO but I also find the gas short for gasoline thing slightly strange, like if an American asks me if I can smell gas, what does my brain tell my nose palate to look out for?

Petroleum is a liquid.

Did you know, there's a board game that combines strategy, exciting action, and good old fashioned fun?

That's right.

I'm talking about Risk.

The classic board game by Hasbro is one of the worlds' best selling board games.

Build your army, defend your territory, and conquer the world with military precision.

Available in stores everywhere.

Risk, the classic game of world domination.

Pretty good game.

Of course it is but the reason he posted that is because he is trolling me because of a post I made over on Discord. I was trying to give Broly helpful suggestions on games on PS4 he could play with his gf. Apparently, that was hilarious according to some of the weirdos over there.

They've never actually tried the videogame version of the classic tabletop game. They just stupidly assumed that any boardgame made into a videogame would suck.

However, back when I was still playing Risk on the PS3 lots of people were still playing it online. It was very popular. They put battle animations in the game to make it more exciting.

The game only costed about ten dollars in the playstation stire.It was well worth at least that much for all the fun I had gotten out if it. Certainly a much better game than childish Mario games which I grew out of long ago but that Broly and Klaw still play apparently lmao.

Oh I see, well I like both Mario games and Risk. There is a real shortage on local co-op games lately though, it’s annoying.

And petrol is a liquid. 🙂

Do you like Chess and have a PS3 or PS4? The Playstation store sells a game called "Pure Chess."

It doesn't cost much and besides setting up tournaments against the computer you can also solve about 100 checkmate problems (I've already solved them all long ago; most were pretty easy but a few really had me studying the board for hours).

On the harder difficulty levels the AI puts up a pretty decent challenge. In fact, I just lost a game to it the other night because I was so rusty. You can even challenge other people to play by mail. Though, I have always been uncomfortable playing chess by mail or over the phone because am always suspicious that my opponent might be cheating by consulting a chess computer or whatever while playing.

I play monopoly and uno on my PS4 with my gf.

I also play poker on it.

Yeah, I have Monopoly and it was fun for a while but now it is just boring. There is a way you can easily abuse the AI so that you never lose. If you can find several other human players to play with it's still fun though.

I have a poker game as well. It's a Texas Hold'em game. Can never find other human players to play with but the single player tournaments are pretty fun and challenging.
