choco_froshThings that are very tempting to do when setting up a Coupa account:
- Claim that your firm's primary products are things that they do not, and indeed are forbidden to, supply, e.g. conventional war weapons, rockets, gambling equipment, antiretroviral drugs, etc.
- Translate any associated emails into whatever language Coupa initially defaulted to (Polish, in this case)*
- Replace "Coupa" with "Koopa" in any associated emails
* WTFF, Coupa? I eventually realized that there was a thing at the bottom that could be used to change your language, but (a) that should really be more obvious, and (b) maybe you should default to English or French or something else widely spoken as a second language?

Date: 2020-09-08 02:27 pm (UTC)I was going to say that this would probably require resorting to numerous circumlocutions and perhaps reference to whatever database of neologisms the Vatican maintains. And this is probably true, actually. However, if you want to talk about your trip to Sugarloaf, it turns out that the Sieur du Cange has you covered.
OK, I should probably get back to work now.
