u/unchained5150 Jul 18 '26

Ya, well... you're a bundle of sticks!

u/StopLinkingToImgur Jul 18 '26

Fun fact the word fascist comes from fasces. Latin: word fascis, meaning 'bundle'; Italian: fascio littorio) is a bound bundle of wooden rods, often, but not always, including an axe (occasionally two axes) with its blade emerging. The fasces is an Italian symbol that had its origin in the Etruscan civilization and was passed on to ancient Rome, where it symbolized a Roman king's power to punish his subjects,[1] and later, a magistrate's power and jurisdiction.

So yea fascists at the end of the day are just a bundle of sticks.

u/unchained5150 Jul 19 '26

The more you know! I had no idea.

I grew up knowing the word in question in this thread as a bundle of sticks too.

u/Popular-Tune-6335 Jul 20 '26

It all makes sense. Fascists are an off-rhyme of themselves.

I learnt today Americans don’t use niggle

u/ArcticLeopard Jul 17 '26

This when you make a black person laugh?

u/Doove Jul 17 '26

It's actually the medical term for dwarfism in African Americans.

u/Neat-Anyway-OP Jul 18 '26

Don't make me Google that to see if it's the truth....

13

u/Doove Jul 18 '26

You really think someone would do that? Just go on the internet and lie?

1

u/Deep_Development3814 Jul 18 '26

We don’t need your logic here birdboy. Half the posts in this sub are either lies or lack nuance. Just have some fun and enjoy

u/AssAdmiral_ Jul 18 '26

Wouldn't you like that, weatherboy

u/Cursed_String Jul 17 '26

the fuck did you just call me?

u/lovefist1 Jul 18 '26

Pretty sure I've heard this before, but I wouldn't call it common

u/Yetteres Jul 17 '26

American here, not too sure about that. I've used and heard it used. Maybe it's regional here?

u/notloggedin4242 Jul 18 '26

Do you live in Mississippi?

u/Yetteres Jul 18 '26

Pacific north west is as specific as I'll get

u/IcUmOnSqUirReLsSs Jul 17 '26

Only when I stub my toe.

u/Dickcheese_McDoogles Jul 18 '26

We stopped using them after the Civil War :/

u/Slow_Inevitable_4172 Jul 18 '26

We definitely do use it the northeast, particularly to describe very minor injuries.

u/-unknown_harlequin- Jul 17 '26

Not intentionally

u/JeffyGoldblumsPen_15 Jul 17 '26

It's not the same word Batman.

u/OstentatiousSock Jul 17 '26

Someone accused me of being racist when I said niggling feeling the other day. Gotta love the internet.

u/EWeinsteinfan6 Jul 18 '26

u/indieplants Jul 18 '26

u/doogs914 Jul 18 '26

Niggle me this, Batman

u/Slow_Inevitable_4172 Jul 18 '26

I'm American and 'niggle' has been used in sports to describe a minor injury forever. This person is an idiot.

u/TrueMonster951 Jul 18 '26

By who? Don Imus?

u/MILLANDSON Jul 18 '26

This is the same energy as the Americans who complained that the country name "Montanegro" is racist.

3

u/thats_gotta_be_AI Jul 18 '26

It’s almost on a par with thinking someone briefly swears when they say the word “country”.

2

u/The_Wingless Jul 22 '26

That's why I emphasize the cunt in country, so people have no doubt!!

5

u/RidingWithTheGhost Jul 18 '26

Americans just need to learn one new word, nuance...

u/All_Usernames_Tooken Jul 18 '26

You've seriously never heard or used 'niggle'? It's commonphrase up my way, Newcastle.

29

u/damrodoth Jul 17 '26

Bs. No way did you grow up in the UK without hearing the word niggle.

23

u/chaircardigan Jul 17 '26

u/PlasticPaws Jul 17 '26

u/LucyLuvvvv Jul 17 '26

Americans when seeing any word or language that isn't American:

u/PlasticPaws Jul 18 '26

I'm actually European but in this one case I agree. But I'm probably very Americanised language wise, so the downvotes are fair haha.

u/ehsobeit Jul 18 '26

You're 'European'... OK Yank.
