Crimea 2014 "your country is too unimportant not to throw under the russian bus" flashbacks
We say it as "Лидъл" which sounds like "lidull".
And here's me, a Bulgarian who thinks some British as well as some American accents sound super annoying

Starscream would try so hard to be a champion of Tzeentch, only to fail each and every time. A more competent schemer of the Shockwave/Tarantulas mold would be more favored by Tzeentch.
Megatron would easily earn Khorne's favor but not sure about the other gods. I guess it varies from Megatron to Megatron but the competent ones would probably win Chaos Undivided. Beast Wars Megs definitely could.
The resident fembot fatale (Blackarachnia, Airachnid) would be a perfect fit for Slaanesh.
Nurgle is a tough one, maybe someone loyal and constant like Soundwave?
Bulgarian flattens it into what would be /jo/ and /ju/ in German (like "Gerhard Schrjoder" or "Mjunchen", "Gjote" is even more butchered). It's seen as kind of illiterate among German speakers but non-German speakers tend to do it.
If not, good for you.
Maul: KorkiiiiiiIIIIIIIEEEAAAAAAAAUGHHHHH
Yeah well, they were trying to bully countries where euroscepticism and pro-russian sentiment are relatively high like Bulgaria and Romania, into dropping out of NATO as early as December 2021. They'll be testing how willing NATO is to throw its eastern flank countries under the bus.
"Darkness called... but I was on the phone, so I missed him. I tried to *69 Darkness, but his machine picked up. Darkne must have been screening his calls."
"It's been MONTHS since I've seen my felphone charger!"
"Our phones were charged when we came to oversee this land, Detheroc."
"True. Though we should have received some kind of messages by now."
We do, yes.
Problem is, lei sounds like it's a plural of a feminine noun that ends in -a or -ya. The correct singular should be in either masculine (through translation) or neuter (because nouns ending in -u are typically assigned neuter gender).
We don't know what to do with the grammar of our own currency's plural, either. See, most masculine nouns (those that end in a consonant) have two plural forms. One ends in -ove or -i and the other ends in -a. The -a one is typically used for a specified quantity - like if I want to say 100000 BGN, that's "sto hilyadi leva". The -ove/-i plural is used for unspecified quantities - hundreds of thousands of BGN would be "stotitsi hilyadi levove".
Now normally, when a number is not specified, the -ove plural is used for most nouns, like "I own chairs" would be "imam stolove" and "I own two chairs" would be "imam dva stola". You'd think that "[I'll pay] in BGN" would be "v levove". Yeah? NO, it's "v leva". Go figure. I guess it's because foreigners would get confused otherwise, as I'm sure you have after reading this comment I wrote way past bedtime.
"The great transformation awaits, Optimus Primal. Prepare to be... reformatted."
"THAAAAAAT'S JUUUUUUUST PRIIIIIIIMEEEE!"

Wait till you hear that Bulgarians think that the singular of Romanian lei is leia (feminine).
Megs: "This long-distance relationship thing isn't working out, Primal. No. We should break up. Yeeeessss."
Optimus: "MEGATROOOOOOON!"
Whatever man, I hate every single football team, they're all just money laundering machines and clubs for meatheads that get paid per year more than I'll make in a lifetime.
Ah, tumblr is growing up, I see. Five years ago voicing anything like that would get you flooded with angry comments about what an incel you are and shit. Now people at least try to do some self-reflection.
Yep, when someone waves some flag of tolerance and then turns and attacks the people they claim to be tolerant towards the moment those people don't act according to some script, you know that person is full of shit. And that's why I've shunned this "aaaawwwww men should cry and be soft and be little ✨ cinnamon buns ✨ ~~~~" bullshit since the early 2010s. Because I always felt it was performative and self-congratulatory - the people spreading it needed someone to play the "perfect victim of toxic masculinity" for them to portray themselves as the savior of that person and feel good about themselves. Once you deviate from the script, don't show emotion at the "proper" moment, or in an "acceptable" way, you're no longer an uwu cinnamon roll for them to coddle and pat themselves on the back.
Before someone says I need to touch grass (I probably do), I've experienced this irl too. A stark example was my ex who was a weird mix of Western progressive and Eastern European traditional mindsets. She would invite me to be emotionally open, share, express worries and distress and whatnot. But when I did... that "malfunction" didn't happen "according to plan", at "acceptable" times and in "acceptable" ways, so I was berated and/or dismissed (the classic Eastern European "no, you don't have depression or anxiety"). Other women in my life have been the same at times - my mother, occasionally my female friends with their boyfriends (not with me but it's different, I'm a friend). So if all this professed empathy always comes with terms and conditions, rationed into scheduled amounts and times and is basically never there when I actually need it and on the contrary, I get shamed when I express that need, I'll stay shut in, thank you very much.
None that I've heard of. If ultras have any political affiliation, it's far right nationalists or outright neonazis. Yes, that very much includes teams created by the communist party like CSKA Sofia. They love to put up stickers in my neighborhood with Celtic crosses and slogans like "football and racism".
This is what happens when russia "peacefully resolves" a war. They install a government that does this.
