Thank you for the support! You guys are awesome!

Sydney uses "ADHD wall of text." It's super effective. Exactly what it's effective at is another matter.

I assume that most languages have acronyms. Not like, Chinese, probably. Or even Japanese for that matter. I know Japan knows what they are for sure, (Evangelion's N.E.R.V., etc.) but I think they have to use Romanized alphabets to achieve it. But yeah, probably most written languages with non-ideogram based writing systems probably would. No idea about Korean, which is non-ideogram and phonetic AFAIK, but each Korean... syllable (?) is consonant-vowel-consonant (except the ones that aren't) but that would leave most Korean acronyms looking like something Iceland would name a volcano, or the noise Klingon would make when he got a bat'leth to the groin. KLKTKTK! German seems like a language that would benefit from acronyms.

I enjoy writing Sydney's stream of consciousness manner of speaking, cause it gives me the chance to do a lot of googling about topics I know nothing about. Writing this page taught me what the standard unit of currency is in Senegal, its general exchange rate (it's closer to 600-1 at the moment, but I have to keep reminding myself that less than a year has progressed since the beginning of the comic) and that xylophone is indeed a word in the French dictionary, but isn't French in origin. Oh, and also Bissap. I wanna try it.
