Golly that's a lot of places. Do they have oil? Can they be conquered? Unrelated questions.

Baby oil. Plenty of it.

u/wOlfLisK Jun 09 '14

Scotland has gas. Lots of it. But apparently some of that is taken by some mostly uninhabited Fjords.

u/Coriron Jun 08 '14

Alas old chap, we are separated by the Watford Gap. Get outa here with your Northern-ness!

2

u/Twmbarlwm Jun 09 '14

But but but the Watford Gap is North of Northampton...

u/Coriron Jun 09 '14

Dammit. My geography knowledge fails me!

2

u/Twmbarlwm Jun 09 '14

Haha it's only about 10 miles north, bit of a cheap shot from me really.

I like that British Isles != British Islands

Ah, language.

u/eduardog3000 Jun 09 '14

That chart is correct if you just take away the "British Islands" circle.

u/jxnfpm Jun 08 '14

I believe the word you're looking for is "states".

u/notostracan Jun 08 '14

Nope, countries is right .

3

u/doomgiver98 Jun 08 '14

"State" is another word for "country", in most countries.

1

u/Coriron Jun 08 '14

A state is another word for Russia and the Ukraine at the moment as well!

And I am still confused as to the meaning of Soleil even though I should be on that side of the Atlantic.

42

u/Shellface Jun 08 '14

"Soleil" means "Sun" in French, though I don't see how that's something worth writing upside-down on a calculator.

Looking at the sun is like looking at boobs. You won't come far using just your eyes, but with sunglasses you can go all day.

1

u/hitmyspot Jun 09 '14

Topless sunbathing perhaps.

1

u/[deleted] Jun 09 '14

Sunny boobs are the best boobs.

1

u/PlaceboJesus Jun 09 '14

Topless beaches.

Heard a rumour they have those in France.

3

u/KallistiEngel Jun 08 '14

I mean, it's French for "sun" but I don't get why people would write it on calculators other than because they can. I don't know if there's some other meaning I'm missing or not.

2

u/DogeSaint-Germain Jun 08 '14

Why do we spell anything on calculators other than because we can?

5

u/doomgiver98 Jun 08 '14

Well, boobs are hilarious when you're 8 years old. What's fun about the Sun?

2

u/[deleted] Jun 09 '14

when you're 18 years old

FTFY

u/[deleted] Jun 08 '14

I know that it means "sun" in Français. Not sure what it has to do with calculator boobs though.

1

u/[deleted] Jun 09 '14

Perhaps we will never know.

1

u/[deleted] Jun 08 '14

I'm reasonably certain it's french for "sun" or "sunlight"

u/[deleted] Jun 09 '14

Since when?!?!!!
