It's European Day of Languages, so here are some of our favourite untranslatable and wonderfully-specific words from across Europe that we wish we had in English ✨

WHAT??? Admit I don't know EVERYTHING??? 🤦‍♀️ #sarcasm (This is why I love being a librarian. It's my job, not to know all the answers, but be able to find the answer or a source that can provide the answer.) (also, sometimes there is no answer...we get all sorts at the library) #librarylife

God bless spellcheck...even when it is not effective, at least it's good for some laughs! Also, blessings upon all the puns in the replies. Epic. #spellcheck #puns

Kumori, a spicy grey chonk of a cat, curled up in the cat tree.Q, whose photo should be in the dictionary next to the definition of scaredy-cat, suspicious of attempted early morning cute cat photo ops...and pretty much everything else in the world, wonders wtf I think i am doing from his cozy Pusheen bunker.

They disinvented the VCR. You might think that the reason we don't have VCRs anymore is because VCRs were supplanted by DVDs, PVRs and streaming, but that's not the case. They had it in for the VCR from the very start, and they never stopped trying to kill it. Eventually, they succeeded. 1/
A 1960s family living room in which a mom, dad and two kids are mesmerized by a cabinet-style TV. The image has been altered. The TV has an early 1990s VCR atop it. The TV screen is displaying a cross-sectioned human head with brains and spine on display. A huge fist has materialized in the room, with bloody spiked knuckle-dusters, smashing into the VCR. The oil painting over the sofa has been replaced with a pulp image of a male head, its cranium removed and replaced by a dome. Inside the dome is a red eight-segment VCR clock, displaying 12:00. The background in the painting is a tangle of cassette tape. The whole image's colors have been boosted, giving it an overexposed look.

This is not normal. It’s straight out of an authoritarian playbook. We change this come November. #Midterms 🌊

My kids always seem to lose theirs right before bed...we've had many a late drive to the nearest open convenience store with an ATM to get cash and break it into smaller bills... #thethingswedoforourkids

It's weird how they keep underestimating the human capacity for anger...or at least, MY capacity for anger. The depths of my rage remain unplumbed... 🤷‍♀️

I take blurbs into consideration when selecting books for the library, especially for debut authors or authors we don't have anything by.

Prepping our house for sale and applying for jobs in places that better suit our family. Have four applications in, one more to do. Please send good vibes! Also, if you know anywhere looking for Collection Management/Acquisitions/Selection/Technical Services/Cataloging Librarians, let me know!
