I thought this was funny. My SO pointed out this is a real term for couches that don’t have a structural frame.

And then I remember that it was in fact my own PR.
I know of a great way to do it. But you can only do it once.
I want to see a graph where X ranges from “ambitious” to “I’m so tired”, and Mint is at the end. That’s where I’m at.
That’s interesting. I do see that 16 languages are spoken there, 6 being distinct. English being “official” (though that may be thanks to colonization). On the one hand I want to give the shop owner the benefit of the doubt because it is possible one of their native languages has the R L phenomenon. Or they’re avoiding lawsuits by changing the name. Or… it’s just a goof. 🤷♂️
This is an unnecessary nerd dump, but the letter R is probably the most unique letter in English. Especially in regions like the States where we pronounce it like a vowel (no sound stop with tongue or lips) instead of a consonant. In some languages (like Spanish) it’s treated with a soft palate touch, like tt in “butter” (said the American way). In other languages it’s similar. Take Korean for instance, where R and L are actually the same consonant: ㄹ. We’re used to our unique treatment of R, but for many languages it’s not any different from L. So confusions like this while they seem kind of silly, they make perfect sense for the target language - including Hawaiian.
In case anyone is like “oh interesting, didn’t know that” then keeps scrolling: it’s not true.
I didn’t like Jira before I used everything else. Now I like Jira.





I’ve been having this exact same problem. I don’t have a fix, but hey, comradery.
