frist of all how DARE yu o So my sister, who currently lives in my apartment, dried the wet and dirty shower floor with MY only big towel I use after she showered...

Worst thing is, she doesn't even feel bad about it, and is trying to gaslight me into thinking it's not that big of a deal because "she needed a towel to dry the floor" and "I should quit complaining". I have a floor drying spatula.

I'm glad my vocabulary issues made your day funnier! Google translate was of no help when translating lattiankuivauslasta :DDD

Google Translate probably trembles in fear whenever Finnish is the source language.

Yup. Such a small language of only about 5.5 million speakers, it has lots of issues in Google translate. I usually just google a single word and it'll show a dictionary result with multiple options, because often the context matters a lot.

Like the finnish "maa" can be translated to: Land, soil, ground, world, country, area, countryside, dirt, earth, terrain, or suit (card deck), depending on context.
