Maybe some of Europe’s surfeit of demo coders had to make their money somehow, and one of them persuaded a pharmacy that paying them to make them a sign with graphics that spin in eyecatching ways would be a good idea, and the rest was history?

New Brendan Eich just dropped
Windows Solitaire. Or, before Windows, Solitaire with actual playing cards.

As Jamie Zawinski put it, it’s like a non-profit animal shelter setting up a sideline selling kitten meat to satisfy demands for hockey-stick growth. If somebody castigates them for it, they can point out that the demand for kitten deli slices didn’t going to go away, and if they didn’t sell them, someone else would step in and do it less humanely.
For those who like a bit of fascism with their emulation.
Or it’s deliberate trolling
In Europe, that’s July and/or August, depending on the country
The United Airlines who, coincidentally, are planning to start showing personalised ads on seatback screens?
But can you use nuclear weapons against an electric sharknado?
Thailand comes from adding the Germanic -land suffix to the demonym Thai, a common pattern for non-Indo-European places. There’s also Swaziland and Somaliland (though there is also a Somalia).
People from Iceland are only called Icelandic because “Icish” would sound a bit silly.
Needs a few earlier movements, including Art Deco/jazz moderne, Bauhaus and midcentury modern/googie
If you’re ever planning to play in the UK, The Slappers is out of the question.
They’ll probably launder them into real estate; possibly a penthouse in Dubai or a townhouse down the road from Buckingham Palace or something.
Australia also has a Newcastle (in New South Wales, north of Sydney). Not sure if it has/had coal mines, though I wouldn’t be surprised if it did. Australians using the phrase may be referring to their Newcastle, and even unaware of the English one.
So, not only is it a slur, it’s not even one of the ones which are free speech.
He should find all the Republicans who can’t get Tinder matches and start a support group.

Such a compilation is unlikely to be published. There’s a phenomenon known as the Werther effect, in that as soon as suicide is mentioned in the news or popular culture, the suicide rate goes up (presumably as the awareness of it tips those who have been on the verge). As such, news publications have guidelines to avoid mentioning suicide as a motivation (often, the only tell will be a footnote at the bottom of a story giving the phone number of a suicide hotline). If such a compilation came out, it could be expected to trigger a wave of suicides, if not a small but noticeable permanent increase in the frequency of suicide, so I imagine few publishers ok r booksellers would touch it.
