Do you not have a kinoplex?
It seems so
What the fuck is kino
It's German for "cinema". No idea, if that's the context, though.
I'm pretty sure it's the right context, because it fits. Odd story, but it fits
“Kino”, from the Greek “kine”(to move), is Internet slang for a motion picture. In particular, it is used to denote works with special artistic merit. The word is also used to describe events and art bearing a cinematic quality either in concept or execution.
Internet slang is a lot like German.
Stupid and will get you weird looks at the function
And popular with the Nazis.
Is that what 4channers mean when they call anything else kino? I shouldn't have asked this in a thread about a fake movie theater
Yeah, it basically means “thing that is novel/bold/stylish enough to not look out of place in an art film”.
On 4chan it's slang for "awesome"
eating -> dining
cinema -> kino
WTF did I just read?
I absolutely read this in Elijah Wood's voice telling about any normal day he has and that's what I'm sticking with.
What a whimsical tale
I read all of this, but I feel like I didn't. What did you do to me?
