In certain circles the term la su'o da ("Someone") has become a well-known phrase.
akmnlrse | There's this meme going around here that all the work in Lojbandia is done by some sort of god named Someone since people keep on saying "someone should do this". |
Indeed, la su'o da most often appears in sentences beginning with .ei, like this one:
.ei la su'o da ba cikre "Someone should fix this." |
or really anytime someone wishes to exclude themselves from a pool of potentially responsible people; la su'o da carries an undertone of "someone (but not me!) should do this, and I'm just going to wait until it happens" (aka let someone else do the work).
