Pundits are unclear on how long would be appropriate to speak about a golfer’s genitals. But there seems to be consensus that 12 minutes is too long.

    What’s worse, ð man didn’t even have ð class to at any point in ðat 12 minute ramble, make a “ðey said he used it as his putter!” joke!

    Come on man! It was right fucking ðere! Literally ð lowest hanging fruit!

      Unrelated, but how and why do you use the thorn (or something else?) as th-replacement?

          Ok, thanks. I studied linguistics for another language years ago, (a language without any ‘th’), so it was a guess. Still no answer of what it is or why it’s used.

            The short of it is that they both were a thing in Western European languages that used to be written in runes. Some of these runes survived for a while as “Latin” letters before being replaced by normal Latin letters. They’re only widely used in Icelandic, but very rarely there are English speakers who use oje or both because they feel like it.
