Perhaps we are blaming the wrong people
Politicians, always the politicians. It is worth remembering a singular fact: smoking is the only addiction, among all those caused by substances, that does not stupefy. And yet, those same politicians gladly collect taxes from marijuana dispensaries, turn a blind eye to other drugs, and...- Alejo R.

The 41st New York. How many pipe smokers?
I see three smokers. I’m sorry to say this, but those large briar pipes seem out of time and place. I suspect it might be an image generated by artificial intelligence. A Google Lens search of the photo shows that the matches are only with social media posts, mostly on Facebook. It does not...- Alejo R.

My car burns coconuts
Guey or wey means Dude. In Spain the word used is Tio, literally uncle. Probably they understand you say Buey, that's meas OX. Anything with horns can mean cuckold.- Alejo R.

My car burns coconuts
Actually, no. The infamous reputation they had during the dictatorship didn't diminish the affection people have for the Ford Falcon in Argentina. It's a cultural thing; it's the car of many parents and grandparents, and it evokes childhood memories. Oh, and nobody calls kidnappings "paseitos,"...- Alejo R.

My car burns coconuts
Another point is that in Hispanic America there is a large population with some degree of criollo ancestry—that is, a mix of European and Indigenous origins. The greater the proportion of Indigenous heritage in a community, the stronger the influence of native languages tends to be on the way...- Alejo R.

No, is not true . The longer Spanish has been spoken in a place, the more regional expressions it will develop. For example, Mexican Spanish is older than American English. But this absolutely does not mean that two Spanish speakers cannot understand each other. That is 100% false. ---- Alejo R.

The Chevy Nova is a legend in Argentina. Its called Coupe Chevy There is still a racing category where the Chevy Nova, the Ford Falcon, the Dodge Polara, and the IKA Torino all compete. The Chevy and the Falcon are the most popular ones. You can see Novas on a daily basis here. ---- Alejo R.

An Unusual Crack
No, I’ve never seen that happen. The cracks I’ve seen on pipes usually run parallel to the grain, not across it, where I’d assume more force is needed. They also tend to start at the rim of the bowl or at the shank’s edge — not in the middle of the pipe. The only explanation I can think of is a... -
