What common Spanish phrase is the third one supposed to be? The best I can do is "bien feo", which obviously doesn't make much sense.

[-] Habahnow@sh.itjust.works 46 points 11 months ago

Bien feo. Which is Spanish for very ugly.

[-] heatermcteets@lemmy.world 32 points 11 months ago

Pretty sure it means “Very Ugly”.

[-] XEAL@lemm.ee 15 points 11 months ago

Indeed.

As a Spaniard, I don't get that one.

[-] wander1236@sh.itjust.works 20 points 11 months ago

I think it might be a Latin American phrase. Googling "bien feo" comes up with a lot of people using it to mean ugly, disgusting, bad, etc.

[-] pete_the_cat@lemmy.world 14 points 11 months ago

I'm American, and my Spanish isn't great, but even I was like "Good Ugly?" 🤔

[-] XEAL@lemm.ee 4 points 11 months ago

More like "Well ugly" maybe, still weird tho.

well-uglified

[-] ThrowawayPermanente@sh.itjust.works 1 points 11 months ago

I think this is the best translation

[-] intensely_human@lemm.ee 8 points 11 months ago

In Central America they use “bien” to mean “very”

[-] harrowhawk@lemmy.sdf.org 5 points 11 months ago

Bienvenidos?

Most of them look like greetings so that’s my best guess.

[-] marcos@lemmy.world 3 points 11 months ago

Burro demas...

I'm sure that's not a common greeting.

[-] Mycatiskai@lemmy.ca -4 points 11 months ago

Bein Vio in Google translates to Well Seen.

The F sound could be a misheard V sound

[-] intensely_human@lemm.ee 39 points 11 months ago

“bien feo” means “really ugly” 🤣

[-] t_berium@lemmy.world 26 points 11 months ago

Dunno why this made me laugh so hard.

[-] pdxfed@lemmy.world 10 points 11 months ago

The mix of banal situation with just right right amount of anthropomorphic absurdity.

Yep, that's the point

The last one seems to say "bewayno dee us"

So it's something like "something hay dios". I can't make out what it's supposed to be. It's bothering me now 😆.

No, it clearly says bwayno dee-us. They're scientists. Do you think they can't speak dolphin?

[-] werefreeatlast@lemmy.world 4 points 11 months ago

I can't believe I missed it!

The Far Side

Hello fellow Far Side fans!

About this community and how I post the comic strip… Many moons ago, I would ask my Dad to save the newspaper for me everyday so I could read my favorite comic strips and one of those was The Far Side. These days of course you find just about anything online including www.thefarside.com where they post several comics a day and I repost them here. Just to note, the date you see in my posts is not the initial release date, but the date they were posted on the website.

The Far Side is a single-panel comic created by Gary Larson and syndicated by Chronicle Features and then Universal Press Syndicate, which ran from December 31, 1979, to January 1, 1995 (when Larson retired as a cartoonist). Its surrealistic humor is often based on uncomfortable social situations, improbable events, an anthropomorphic view of the world, logical fallacies, impending bizarre disasters, (often twisted) references to proverbs, or the search for meaning in life… Read more: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Far_Side

Hope you enjoy and feel free to contribute to the community with art, cool stuff about the author, tattoos, toys and anything else, as long it’s The Far Side!
