Im lost, whats the joke? 😭
“Yes” “Oui” “Sí” “Ja” sounds like “Yes we see ya”
Thank u my friends
All of their “yes” responses together sound like “Yes, we see ya.”
In related news, I was way too old when I learned that the Ouija board is named after oui and ja, which are “yes” in French and German.
I’ve heard that it named itself, and the oui+ja interpretation is a false etymology. This is also what’s written on Wikipedia at the time of posting this comment https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ouija#Etymology
Omg, I had no idea…
Now I am imagining it called Ouinein to align with the Yes / No on the board.
Ha! Imagine having to pronounce it, “Weeyah” to align with the respective languages
Yeah, in the US, I’ve always heard it pronounced “wee-gee.” Of course, these were the same people convinced nerds playing TTRPGs were worshiping Satan.
New trademark safe horror movie: The Yes Yes Board
I like this variant (note, I’m slightly biased):
And Englishman, a Frenchman, an Israeli, a Spaniard and a German are sitting in a room when a man enters and asks, “Can you see me?”
They respond: “Yes.” “Oui.” “Ken.” “Si.” “Ja.”
