Nejlepší věc na prosinci je ta rolba jezdící na stránkách Portálu UP.

Téma mezijazykové homonymie

"Když se to vezme kolem a kolem, zkuste si říct před jakýmkoli anglofonním člověkem 'Fakt, jo?'"

"To je to samé, jako když se děti na základní škole naučí, jak se řekne anglicky broskev."

"No ano, případně v němčině slovo tlustý."

"A nedej bože, aby před Čechy někdo něco hledal v polštině. Třeba cestu do obchodu."

ok no i feel like at this point there could be a list of weird shit connected with my uni

the number of students is almost one quarter of the city's total population. you can clearly tell when the school year is over because the streets are empty

there is a student legend that if you climb through a hole in the 18th century baroque column at the town square you'll pass your exams. the university has to remind students not to do it because there is cameras and they'll get arrested. it just keeps happening

not only does the official university app have a meme page, it also has a Flappy Bird knockoff game that counts the users' score and has a chart showing which faculty has the highest total score (faculty of sciences is first, liberal arts second, education third. faculty of theology has even less points than non-student players)

there is also a Dobble knockoff

also every easter the school website has an egg hunt minigame which you bet is the only thing everyone does in classes during this time. it also has a scoreboard for the faculties

competition between the individual faculties doesn't end with flappy bird, there is a yearly competition in blood donation. I know a lot of universities do blood donation but not sure if any others make it a straight up war. if you ever dreamed of shedding blood to bring your people victory, rejoice! here you can!

there is also a yearly competition of which faculty drinks the most alcohol but i can't find anything about it rn

the faculty of theology keeps losing in every one of the aforementioned competitions

the university merch shop sells slivovitz, beer, wine and mead. you know. if you need to drink your sorrows away when you fail your exams

the university also has its own beer brewery

you know what, starting to think that this university actively wants us to fail by promoting procrastination and alcoholism

the puns. the. fucking. puns.

why just. why. stop. please.

oh also

the main building of the faculty of arts is built on top of a medieval burial ground. this fact might explain a few things

was looking at a spotify playlist called “gen z political revolution” and two of the first songs on the playlist were The Man and You Need to Calm Down by taylor swift………

Já v neděli na cestě do Olomouce:

Nestuduje tady někdo historii na UPOLu?

Chtěla bych tam v budoucnu studovat a stále mám pár otázek, na které mi webovky nebyly schopny odpovědět.

[eastern-lights]

- “Jaká žena má podle tebe ideální postavu?”

- “František Palacký.”

- “... cože?”

- “Zakoktala jsem se snad?”

Proč mi přijde, že obvykle jde buď Eduroam i upol wifi naráz, nebo ani jedna?

Jedna nejede, chci se přepojit na druhou, a ta taky nejede. Dneska mi teda nastala výjimka, upol nejel a eduroam jede, ale upřímně, jsem to nečekala.

UP (hovorově upol) sice má budovu, která se topí, ale očividně i slovníček věcí, které se nějak týkají (místní) vysoké školy.

Takže kdybyste někdy museli napsat anglicky, že potřebujete razítko z kanceláře kvestora na základě jednacího řád rady pro vnitřní hodnocení UP, tenhle glosář to jistí.

(je to anglicky správně? netuším. ale minimálně je to aspoň tady ta oficiální verze překladu)

#v životě jsem nebyla v olomouci ale něco mi říká že takhle nějak to funguje s tím mariánským sloupem

If they just let people burn the goat it wouldn't be a good ritual sacrifice. People that burn the goat are legitimately risking jailtime but they do it anyway. That's what makes the goatburning so powerful.

Pozor úklid!
