auld

There’s a beautiful quote from a 2019 episode of the podcast The Anthropocene Reviewed, Auld Lang Syne.

It's tricky to find it fresh, you usually only get it in small greengrocers or at the Auld Lammas fair.

Ah, auld lang syne, when even the simplest processor operations were slower than memory fetch.

Violet Jacobs, from Hallowe'en: But gin the auld fowks' tales are richt An ghaists come hame on Hallow nicht, O freend o' freends!

Yeah, male white middle-aged crabbit auld bastard privilege, if you like.

Perhaps different today, but back when I lived in the auld country it was totally different in Scotland (still in the UK, I believe).

In Japan it's pretty much an institution that shops play an instrumental version of Hotaru no Hikari (which is basically Auld Lang Syne with different lyrics) when they're closing.

And they can teach how Frederick Douglass' female owner Sophia Auld taught him the alphabet at age 12, before his male owner Hugh Auld convince her that slavery and education were incompatible, and that teaching a slave to read was illegal.

They seem too large to my eye and sometimes they are too far from the beam or notes (see about 8 measures from the end in the auld lang sine).

Topped off with 4 hours of a "Auld Lang Syne" playlist starting at Midnight NYE!

He should have played a well-known pentatonic tune like "Auld Lang Syne"!

Feels vaguely familiar, but inverted, to the reality that most Americans have no idea what "Auld Lang Syne" is from, what it means, or what its lyrics even are.

In UK a scottish man was arrested for tweeting "The only good brit soldier is a deed one, burn auld fella, buuuurrn." about the late Tom Moore.
