- Use NSFW marking accordingly
Laittakaa meemejä tänne.
- Odota ainakin 2 kuukautta ennen meemin postaamista uudelleen
- Ei selkeän poliittista sisältöä (poliitikoista, poliittisista tapahtumista, vaaleista jne) parempi paikka esim. !politicalmemes@lemmy.ca

"pass"? Is that American English for overtake?
Yes, and it is said in Canada as well
usually we hang our balls out the window as we overtake, which makes it a pass.
Or when we're being family-friendly, we just press or hang a "full moon". We're not savages, after all.
It's a sign of trust
They’re only allowed to pass backwards and kick forwards though.
Didn't realize that term wasn't used in British English.
I was wondering why you had to turn the air conditioning off just to be able to drive past someone.
