The probably dont know what the iPad 8 is, so they likely meant to say something along the lines of "What the (F word) is the iPad 8?"

Now that makes sense actually; I thought it might've been buck as in money, so asking if the iPad 8 was the best value.
Though if they know about the iPad 7 wouldn't the logical conclusion to that question be "the successor to the iPad 7"?

Not to mention that they've been on the forum since April 19, 2019.

Yeah, I also had a look back and the OP clearly knows how to write. Though I'd like for a return so we can finally put to rest what it all meant, hehe

Wasn’t it Winston Churchill who called us ‘Two nations divided by a common language”.
It's hard to find a definitive source, but most seem to suggest it was George Bernard Shaw.

Anyway the examples here are nothing compared to the consternation you see when you talk to an American about standing on the pavement ("pavement" meaning the road surface in the US, and what Americans call the "sidewalk" in the UK). While even Brits who are familiar with American English tend to find the term "fanny pack" disconcerting...

Maybe the naming confused them.

Threads like these are absolute gems!

Maybe their child temporarily took ahold of the account. :p

It does make for a better media experience, but there are only two speakers. One on each side.
