Pointless French grammar point on a meme: l' is short for singular le when followed by a vowel. For plural, you have to use les, whatever follows. French for otter is loutre (lootre).

thanks for the French lesson. I dont hate you

Usually pedantic grammatical corrections are obnoxious, but somehow this was informative, and respect for translating the meme.

SMH, can't spell looters or draw the Texas flag.

[–] idiomaddict@lemmy.world 14 points 11 months ago

Fuck, now I feel like the dumbass. I thought it was loiterers, but looters now seems obvious.

[–] Jayve@lemmy.world 1 points 11 months ago

It looks like the Chilean flag.

[–] M137@lemmy.world 1 points 11 months ago

Ir spell shot.

[–] JustZ@lemmy.world 0 points 11 months ago

I assumed this flag was some balkan seperstist group and that lotters were the partisan adherents of some opposer named Lott.

Fuck, this is embarrassing.

Gun lovers who don't even know the difference between "shot" and "shoot".

This sent me.

I think that's a pi: π, so loπers will be shot. Lopers, as in people who lope, or in others words, runners. Or maybe they are using loper as short for interloper, which actually makes sense in this context.

Can't help but think that's an in joke for those guys. Or they found the dumb sign and had to strike a pose, like something I would do.

[–] TimewornTraveler@lemm.ee 3 points 11 months ago

it clearly says LOPERS

French Canadian Otters to the US Americans.
