      “To run a train on someone” means you and a lot of your friends have sex with them, one after another.

        You have to open with “Chugga Chugga Choo Choo, we’re all gonna run a train on you!” Or it’s just a plain ole gangbang.

          Also a gangbang is many to many, while a train is many to one.

            No, you’re thinking of an orgy. Trains and gangbangs are both many-to-one, with the difference between them being that the former is sequential while the latter is simultaneous.

                This is more porn knowledge. Most people don’t actually experience gangbangs or orgies in their lives. Maybe if someone is into the whole swinger culture.

            That’s exactly what I used. You can change the theme in the settings. I hate their default green theme, so I changed it to the standard Nitter theme.

            Edit: and yes, this joke is older than the gods as evidenced by the presence of finger, and I’m not sure clean is a thing in modern UN*X distros. Not in FreeBSD at any rate

        American here, never once heard this phrase used. Seems kind of dumb to have it, like it doesn’t even save time describing the situation and if you’re already talking about this then you’re past the point of worrying about vulgar language.

      You know how in a train one carriage comes after the other? One ends, then the next one starts?

      Running a train on someone means one guy after the other banging them.

        This is not fringe at all. There’s way your a gooner and don’t know what this means. People even use the terminology to describe the Sex scene Stephen King randomly put in “IT”. It’s a gangbang but one at a time.

                Stephen King’s books tend to be both very long and contain a lot of internal monologue. That’s very much not film-friendly. “Faithful” adaptions tend to drag and have a lot of tell-don’t-show, which makes for a “terrible” film. Unfaithful ones tend to change and cut a lot, which makes them “terrible” adaptions. For instance, “The Shining” film has very little to do with the book, but is an absolutely phenomenal movie. King hated it.

                “IT” the Tim Curry version has Tim Curry in it, who was absolutely fantastic. A lot of material from the book was cut out - I’m thinking it could be 80% or more. That includes the scene where the children have a gang bang in the sewer. Out of nowhere, with no foreshadowing, and it’s never mentioned again if I remember correctly. That might make it a “terrible” unfaithful adaption, but you know something? I’m alright without seeing that.

                  Idk, I just meant young king was wild. As for movie adaptations, I think dr sleep did well. Just because you dragged shining into this, ofc it’s great:D Kubrick does stuff and jack nicholson stars, it was a good movie, but can understand king hated it.

                  Then again, the man himself directed maximum overdrive, and that movie sorely needed Bruce Campbell energy:D

                  Tbf, I actually enjoyed rose red and storm of the century where he was kinda hands on. <- irrelevant afterthought

                  E: it was pretty weird when first read, but the stand and dead zone won me over later :D

    I hate how the US has sexualized every random word or sentence. I’m here telling my American friend how funny it is that German’s call smart phones a “handy”, like “haha silly random word that makes sense tho haha :)”, but no, ma American bud breaks down laughing imagining German’s giving each other hand jobs.

    Also the constant stopping during any sentence to go “oh, I know what YOU’RE thinking, get your mind out of the gutter!”. No, I don’t, and now I have the privilege of trying to remember every single word that wa just said and trying to see what inside there could possibly be a penis. This from of “joke” never fails to annoy the shit out of me. Like please can we just continue, or do you really have to recite this copy pasta while I stare like an absolute dunce at you?

      I just had a light bulb moment as to what it is that annoys me about a large portion of US-american men: all the “dudes” temper & behaviour is adolescent - as if they never made it past puberty. Which perfectly fits the sexualized language being funny to those guys.

      To be fair it’s rather odd they call it that. Germans seem rather strange with English in general.

      They go to public viewings to watch on their beamers. Even when no one has died. Lothar Matthäus claims “I’m a German record player”. They carry stuff around in their body bags and listen to music from “boxen”.
      Merkel even told the english press about her shitstorm. Every day there is a cringe moment.

      In Polish, kernel directly translates to “testicle”. So it basically says that the testicle panicked.

          Yes, it does. It’s panika jądra which translates to panic of the testicle.

      Then you get stuck in the middle of nowhere for 40 minutes. Not fun, Eurostar. Not fun at all!

    But wait. Do most actual trains use the linux kernel? I thought most ones were those traditional cargo ones, without any kind of computing system.

      In the US I can comfirm both GE (freight and passenger) and siemens passenger locomotives run Linux. Some passenger trainsets/cars still run embedded XP.

      Pretty much all locomotives running out there today have a plethora of computers for managing fuel economy, brakes, and positive train control (rules compliance). Fun fact: the union pacific’s 4104 ‘big boy’ steam engine was fitted with wabtec’s I-ETMS PTC which is powered by Linux so there’s literally a steam powered locomotive running Linux.

      Probably means modern high speed trains. Most of them run in China so yeah they likely use Linux.

      Do most of the trains in the world use Linux? Sadly no, they probably use coal.

    My first thought was that he meant that trains were run on Windows Me. That is a scary thought indeed.

    I had to look up the meaning and now I can only imagine the confusion this person must have felt, before he figured it out, lol.

        “Running train” is a euphemism for a gang bang.
