Child of seven generations of bastards is a banger. Bit dated, but a hundred years ago, damn.

[-] crime@hexbear.net 33 points 1 year ago

A hundred years ago it would've only been a child of three generations of bastards

In spanish we have "child of a truckload of [slur]"

[-] miz@hexbear.net 12 points 1 year ago

is truckload "camión lleno"?

[-] RNAi@hexbear.net 7 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

Yes, more exactly "camionada" but I don't know if that word is accepted outside of argie spanish .

[-] ZWQbpkzl@hexbear.net 39 points 1 year ago

you child of seven generations of bastards

This must roll flawlessly off the tongue in Farsi.

[-] daniyeg@lemmy.ml 5 points 1 year ago

no not really. in Farsi seven generations is a common figure of speech meaning your entire family/lineage and bastard... well it's bastard. it's probably the first insult the gal could think of at the moment.

Using insult that their mothers were hamsters would be accurate since hamster in wild lives in Iran, the word itself most likely comes from Avestan language, and ancient Iranians didn't had kind opinion on it.

Best burn I've heard in a while.

Civilization only started 2500 years ago? Damn…

[-] GlueBear@hexbear.net 12 points 1 year ago

No. The Iranic/ Persian civilization is 2500 years.

Civilization began with Ur.

[-] PolandIsAStateOfMind@lemmygrad.ml 12 points 1 year ago

Even if we refer just to Sumeria, Ur isn't even the oldest city-state there, the first was Eridu with Larsa and Uruk founded not long after. Ur is around 1000 years younger than those three.

[-] daniyeg@lemmy.ml 4 points 1 year ago

it's not even accurate. before the revolution shah recrowned himself and threw a party for the 2500 anniversary of the crowning of cyrus the great (some reactionary bullshit about claiming a return to the glory of the past or whatever), he even tried to change the starting year of the calendar to 2500 years ago. sadly due to very bad historical education in iran and monarchist propaganda most people still say iranian civilization is 2500 years old despite archeological records showing that civilization in iran probably dates back to almost 6000 years ago.
