edit - some people have pointed out that it probably means peach, not apricot.
As always, stay tuned here on !comicstrips@lemmy.world for a slow trickle out of Jucika comics, but if you want to find more, here’s a good post with a large collection that /u/JohnnyEnzyme@piefed.social posted last year: https://piefed.social/post/1258520

I’ll say one thing… These strips are not getting any less racy with time.
Being a sexual being is a revolutionary act.
The funny thing is that I’m skipping a lot because otherwise by pure chance I’d be posting a dozen racy ones in a row. The artist clearly liked to do fan-service.

Now those are some juicy
melonspeachesapricots!Ummm… Correct me if I’m wrong, but AFAIK őszibarack is peach. Sárgabarack is apricot.
Proof: you don’t need a shower cabin for apricots, however, peaches are in the same category with (tejfölös) lángos. That’s why it’s a typical food on the beach/lakeside. You’re almost naked already, damage minimised.
Some other people mentioned that as well. I’ll change it!

Apricots also usually don’t leak much juice
I’m beginning to wonder if Pál Pusztai was… you know… okay.
She was grabbing her own titty while eating the peach naked

I went to college with someone who would eat an orange in the shower every morning for the same reason
Shower oranges are the bomb, you can go completely ham on that thang without having to worry about the mess, it’s great!
Don’t knock it until you try it!
I’ve tried it. It’s okay
Bah. I can smell the orange from here
Probably smelled pretty good too.
This is the one only fans I would pay for.
Somebody’s a big fan of apricots!
Just thoroughly enjoy Jucika’s peaches.
Aren’t those more likely to be peaches? Where I am, apricots are just larger than a golf ball.
Apricots versus peaches are a nominal distinction that doesn’t exist in all cultures or languages.
Should be translated into English as peach, then.
Well no, not necessarily. Languages don’t necessary map 1:1, and conceptions change over time. What one generation calls a peach, and what a previous generation calls a peach, they might differ.
Just like a peach, you may have to accept a little fuzz.
there is sufficient context for that kind of head gymnastics. By looking at the picture, we can clearly see it’s peaches.
I mean somewhat but I feel like you are trying to flatten things to fit how you want to under them. Language and human experience don’t necessarily meet modern experiences.
Less extreme in terms of shape but not taste, is the Spanish arándano, meaning blueberry OR cranberry.
It’s OK because Spanish makes up for it by having European and American names for all variety of critter.
Oh, interesting, I had no idea. They’re so different. I used to have both a peach tree and an apricot tree - they don’t even taste all that similar.
No the don’t, but nectarines can also get lumped in there, and I think nectarines are better than either. The fruits all find their roots in China in prehistory, so depending on where when they made it to a region and the particulars of the linguistic groups of the time. Its like how limes and lemons weren’t always distinguished in all cultures.
“Apple” has dozens of varieties that don’t taste all that similar either.
Yeah, like “Apples of earth” (“Pomme de Terre”). /s
Or road apples
Por que no los Tres
I think nectarines are better than either.
I agree, and disagree. Nectarines are the best of the three to eat by hand. But peaches, an apricots are better cooked.
well, it exists in english
I looked up “Julika es az oszibarack”. It means “Julika and the peach.”
What is that hat made of?!
Most likely straw, given the time the comic was drawn.
Not the crude straw hats you’d see on scarecrows mind you, but craftsman bleached straw finely cut and assembled.
As for the candle looking things - in the 50s to 70s in Hungary, fake candles with incandescent bulbs were very trending. My grandma had a crystal chandelier that had such sticks with special mini bulbs you could set to flicker like actual candles. That’s why the hat isn’t burning. An upscale restaurant in the 60s-70s would’ve likely had such a setup.
These still exist and they’re everywhere. To the extent that in the US the smaller light bulb screw base is literally called the “candelabra” base. I have such a chandelier in my house right now (a very cheap one, probably from the 1980s) only minus the tacky flicker bulbs.
These were around into the 90s. Steak and Ale, man, those flickering bulbs with the incandescent screens. How they worked was kinda cool.
My grandma also had one of those tacky lamps.
