“Free rein”.
“I rein in my horse because I reign in the saddle”
Smh, no one understands the difference between a king’s time of ruling and the little ropes he uses to control his horse anymore.
Or free rain. English is such a wonderful language isn’t it.
Huh.
I honestly don’t think I’ve ever read that particular phrase before. Free rain. It implies the existence of costly rain.
I’m not sure how anyone would manage that, but it’s fun to ponder :D
all i can say is that my life is really strange
Sounds very cyberpunk.
Did you think you can just look at the sky, feel the wind on your hair, or experience the rain on your face? Open up that wallet, because none of that is free, especially the rain. Maximum capitalism…
Ha, I was half expecting your post to start quoting Roy Batty!
If you’re worried about homophones, don’t study Japanese
Obligatory RRJ link. Warning: if you know any Japanese this might undo a lot of it.
Some times I wonder if some cosmic aliens had a debate about how many collisions one language can have. One of them probably said: “Hold my beer. Give me a planet and 10 million years. I’ll prove you wrong.”
All that stuff about pyramids being built by aliens was probably just that one alien trying to win a bet by messing around with earth. Maybe Japanese was the end result of that bet.
So you’re saying people confuse his kingdom for a horse?
Neigh!
