แแแแแ แฏแแแ friends! I'm an American moving to Akhaltsikhe in a couple months for work, and was wondering if anyone could give me some advice. I'm pretty new to everything Georgian and am starting to study to learn more about the republic and try to get basic language stuff sorted out before I move. Does anyone have any recommendations for books (preferably in English) about Georgian history and current affairs or for language study? I've started using a Beginner's Georgian book by Dodona Kiziria, though it's been an uphill battle.
Also, does anyone have any experience with or thoughts about Akhaltsikhe? Wondering if it's known for anything in particular by other Georgians, or not so much. Thank you for reading through this, I'm grateful to get to learn more about Georgia ๐
I don't want to step on anybody's toes here, but the amount of non-dad jokes here in this subreddit really annoys me. First of all, dad jokes CAN be NSFW, it clearly says so in the sub rules. Secondly, it doesn't automatically make it a dad joke if it's from a conversation between you and your child. Most importantly, the jokes that your CHILDREN tell YOU are not dad jokes. The point of a dad joke is that it's so cheesy only a dad who's trying to be funny would make such a joke. That's it. They are stupid plays on words, lame puns and so on. There has to be a clever pun or wordplay for it to be considered a dad joke.
Again, to all the fellow dads, I apologise if I'm sounding too harsh. But I just needed to get it off my chest.
Do your worst!
Where can I find driving schedule from Kutaisi to Akhaltsikhe for 20.6.2019 ? My group( 8 of us ) is at airport around 05:00 and we need a transport to Akhaltsikhe.
I'm surprised it hasn't decade.
Hello everyone, due to an extremely tight travel schedule I am planning to take a private taxi from Batumi to Vardzia to Akhaltsikhe. I've been told it can take 8 hours to get from Batumi to Vardzia. Has anyone here made that trip before? I realize it would make for a super long travel day, but that it's also technically doable.
Thoughts? Is it worth it?
For context I'm a Refuse Driver (Garbage man) & today I was on food waste. After I'd tipped I was checking the wagon for any defects when I spotted a lone pea balanced on the lifts.
I said "hey look, an escaPEA"
No one near me but it didn't half make me laugh for a good hour or so!
Edit: I can't believe how much this has blown up. Thank you everyone I've had a blast reading through the replies ๐
It really does, I swear!
Because she wanted to see the task manager.
Theyโre on standbi
Pilot on me!!
Nothing, he was gladiator.
Dad jokes are supposed to be jokes you can tell a kid and they will understand it and find it funny.
This sub is mostly just NSFW puns now.
If it needs a NSFW tag it's not a dad joke. There should just be a NSFW puns subreddit for that.
Edit* I'm not replying any longer and turning off notifications but to all those that say "no one cares", there sure are a lot of you arguing about it. Maybe I'm wrong but you people don't need to be rude about it. If you really don't care, don't comment.
What did 0 say to 8 ?
" Nice Belt "
So What did 3 say to 8 ?
" Hey, you two stop making out "
When I got home, they were still there.
I won't be doing that today!
| Giorgi V "The Brilliant" (1318 - 1346) - Kingdom of Georgia |
|---|
| Giorgi V was appointed as helper of Giorgi VI who was just crowned as king when he was still very young and it is accepted that he was just a fake king. Giorgi V was the third son of Demetre II, In 1318, after the death of David VIII and Vakhtang III, Giorgi became king, he received a country that was devastated, economically non-existent, and politically divided. Being a smart politician, Giorgi befriended Ilkhan's right hand Amir Chupan, this gave him opportunities to settle the situation inside the country, firstly he returned back Ossetians, who with the help of Mongols resettled to Inner-Kartli from the North and constantly raided Georgian villages. Later he dealt with Kakheti-Hereti and Armenian dukes as those who didn't listen to the king, Giorgi invited them and executed all of them, this strengthened the country, as usually Mongols urged dukes to go against the king to keep him weakened. After Mikel's death, his very young son Bagrat I became the king in the west, but dukes didn't support him and Giorgi used this situation, gained the support of western Georgian dukes, and besieged Kutaisi where Bagrat was fortified, but he surrendered in return of the title of duke. In 1334, the uncle of Giorgi, Sargis died and his title of Samtskhe, which was 3rd and last part of the territory separated from Georgia, was taken by Giorgi, he appointed Kvarkvare, son of Sargis as his vassal and duke, by this Giorgi finished unification of Georgia. In 1327, Abu Said murdered Amir Chupan and sped up the fall of Ilkhanate even more, Ilkhanate basically partitioned into a few rival states and Giorgi used this situation to stop paying tribute and started war for the liberation of Georgia. This happened between 1327 - 1335, Giorgi used both diplomacy and military power to kick out Mongols from Georgia. Giorgi revived the economy of Georgia, started rebuilding industries like farming and melioration systems all around eastern Georgia for wineries. He not only started trading with old eastern partners and north neighbors but negotiated with North Italian city-states. Giorgi sent ambassadors to Egypt and asked to abolish laws (Christians couldn't wave their flags, should've paid entrance money, and should have both legs on one side of the horse while riding it) that were active for all Christians entering Jerusalem and asked to return Georgian monasteries back to Georgians.

This morning, my 4 year old daughter.
Daughter: I'm hungry
Me: nerves building, smile widening
Me: Hi hungry, I'm dad.
She had no idea what was going on but I finally did it.
Thank you all for listening.
There hasn't been a post all year!
You take away their little brooms
It was about a weak back.
