It's just. So gross. Say it. Sudden interruption of slime coming up your throat. Like walking out the door into a spiderweb. Alphabetically I was mistaken but in every way that matters I was right.


Hmm. I guess it if was BQM, it would be pronounced “bequem” which means comfortable in German.

And a comfortable APL is clearly an oxymoron.


Ordinarily I'd make fun of the Germans for giving such an ugly name to a nice concept, but I've always found "comfortable" to be rather unpleasant too (the root "comfort" is fine).
