I always wondered: if religion is the opiate of the masses, what's the stimulant?

I'd answer nationalism or something... But in North Korea apparently it's meth.

Sky can't translate it either because she speaks Inferior Korean, which is totally different from Best Korean in that it doesn't have such a large vocabulary based around propaganda.
As I recall, Sky said earlier in the thread that she can understand the North Koreans, just that they have ridiculously grandiose and archaic vocabulary.

Also religion.

Based on the translations of North Korean media into English, I can totally believe "ridiculously grandiose and archaic"

If we are requesting Skyrunner to translate stuff, I'd like to ask her to translate the lyrics to my favourite song by KJU's favourite pop band, Moranbong Band.
Judging by somewhat mangled translation by Google, it seems to be a rare kind of song that does not feature obligatory mentions of the Great Leader(s) or the Workers Party of Korea. In order not to violate the tradition of sticking propaganda everywhere, North Korean propagandists added lots of it to the song's music video, making it look like a weird tourist advert.

I don't think anyone asked Skyrunner to translate anything.

By the way, did you know North Korea has a state-run comedy skit named It's So Funny? I'm guessing it is not actually very funny at all, but being that I can't understand Korean there's no telling. Care to give us a review, Sky?

@Footjob, you can microwave most grains I've tried pretty easily through the microwave, even if they aren't packaged for it.

I didn't ask her to translate it, I asked her to tell us if it was any good or not. A translation would be nice but is not required for this.
Oh shit.

MSH...that article was from March.
FearfulJesuit...that post was from March.
Don't look at me, as that post is more than 4 months in the past, it is now officially the jurisdiction of Timeclone MaximumZero.

Yes, it's in my Van; the one without windows.

Anyway, I'm sad about the singer being killed... I had a little hope left that the son might be a little better than the father...
