@raspberry199973 @eigofan4U No, this is a joke quoted from the TV show “Futurama”. In this case he’s blackmailing the other character. This is his response to “are you blackmailing me?”

@qtik_ua “To run” - to walk extremely fast, to function, or organizing a series of events. I’m going for a run (exercise) He is running for president. (organization & events) Why won’t this software run?! (Why won’t this software function) Confusing at first, but a very useful word.

@raspberry199973 @eigofan4U This is perfect. Yes, the small difference between “blackmail” and “extortion”. Blackmailing is making threats about social reputation to get what you want. Extortion is making physical threats to get what you want. Well done

@eigofan4U @klorox420 ものすごくシンプルにまとめると threaten = 殴るぞ blackmail = 金etc.出さないとばらすぞ、チクるぞ extort = 金etc.出さないと殴るぞ です。 詳しくはちゃんと調べてくださいね。

@raspberry199973 @eigofan4U I want to help you guys out. Blackmailing doesn’t just mean to threaten. It means to threaten someone for the purpose of getting something you want from them. Like yes it’s still threatening someone but the threat has a selfish purpose.
