Crap

I just discovered something.

bizarro (Spanish) =/= bizarre (English)

I had believed bizarro was the translation of bizarre all my life, and it turns out it's not just that they don't mean the same. They even have almost opposite meanings! Being bizarro is a good thing: it means you're gallant or magnanimous. It doesn't make you weird or eccentric.

God, was I wrong.

I personally blame it on the Superman cartoons' dub.

ETA: In other news, I need the shiny new FMA manga chapter, like, right now.

O_o *siente como si le hubieran cambiado la vida* Yo también pensaba que bizarro en español tenía el mismo significado que en inglés... y creo que me costará bastante trabajo desprenderme de ello ^^u

And... psst, psst, someone has already took a decision about a *certain* adoption @ TAFL.
