oh, i see. Googled mixed up "Por que" (why) with "porque" (because). well, it's not like people use it right, but the ones that were properly used got translated wrong.

I'm Brazilian and I'd like to say that it was funnier in Portuguese. But “blinking the ass” was pure gold. 😂😂😂 (I have no idea if it's the best translation though. The Brazilian expression means something like “squeeze your eyes shut”, but with a different “eye”. 😂)

It does a pretty decent job. I've been using it to read ARMY posts since they are worldwide. In fact it works so well for a Google product, I expect them to ruin it any day. 😆
