Exactly lol. Which is why I prefer conversations online over irl ones.

It amuses me that we're being so meta as to talk about chatting and conversations in a chat thread.

I guess that's a safe fall-back topic, isn't it? The nature of talking itself.

It sounds like the sort of thing that would be super confusing to try and translate, too.
The repetition in weird places would probably read like an error, and it'd be easy to go in circles with it.

I'm tempted to start a "most annoying things to translate" folder and add it.

Yeah, jargon and slang is definitely up there.
References are tricky, too. And quotations and sayings.
Do you translate directly or find an equivalent? Depends on what the client wants, sure, but if you're just doing it for fun then there's all these choices to make.
Urgh, and puns!
Puns.
Sigh.
Puns.

Yeah.
Puns.

PUNS. reminds me of this one fantasy author called Piers Anthony. He has a series that is filled with puns, his Xanth collection. Makes me want to go find his books to read now lol. Maybe I’ll look for the ebooks lol.

Oooh I've read some of those!
A Spell For Chameleon, right?
And... uh. Others.
Titles escape me.
There was this one about a little girl named Ivy? And a hermit wizard who liked putting people through some kind of quest like solve-three-things dealie before he'd see them...
I think.
Something like that anyhow.

Oh, it's been a long time.

I should find those again.

Glad you mentioned them.

I think I remember that title actually. But yeah it’s been a LOOOONG time since I’ve read him. The thing I remember the most was Boot Rear lol. It’s a drink that tastes like root beer but it also kicks you in the ass lol.

I just remember, lots and lots of puns.
Seemed like the kind of setting a hardcore D&D gamer would come up with.
Oh, and the characters all had a Talent. Some kind of magic ability, some were more powerful than others.
It's been a long time.
Something about Florida?
