EndreWhiteMane: Oh, women have taken over the world while you were gone.
I make one jokey comment and you boys have to take it too far. *shakes head in disappointment* :-)

CarrionCrow: Holy crap...just woke up and looked at the computer clock...

Yay for narcolepsy. It's like sucky time travel.

moonshineshadow: *welcome back hug* :D
Thank you. =)

It's always weird just falling asleep with no warning whatsoever. No getting tired, no feeling like I could use a nap, sitting here watching a video and it's goodnight.

That's about all though. :-)
That doesn't bother me. Most of the people in power are guys, and most of them are screwups.
I've seen some female politicians who are completely out of their skulls, but I'd say it's still worth a shot. =)

EndreWhiteMane: Little one's like ass=arse, mom=mum, no problem=no worries, pop=soda, and the avoiding of words with very different connotations in different countries.
It helps that I lived with a Brit for 3 years, it's kinda fun too. :-)

ddickinson: That's not too bad. I have been chatting with a few Americans or non native speakers that use American English and have gotten them starting to use proper English spellings as well.

If I can get all Americans to say "couldn't care less" instead of "could care less" and "hold the fort" instead of "hold down the fort" then I will be happy. :-)

Ragnarblackmane: Eh? Well now hugs are acceptable from you, I thought we had a better rapport than that.

ddickinson: I wasn't sure who you would class as acceptable people to hug. So I went with a safe option. But if you are okay with virtual hugs, then have a *big virtual hug* :-)
"gotten them starting to use proper English spellings as well." :-P
But I always say "couldn't care less" because it actually makes sense. ;)

That's news?

also did that just happen?

Well perhaps they will make better use of the planet.. Hardly though.

There is some politics, they got elected or something.. They use the money to have a party of 69 thousand euros. Those fat fucks.

Cool, hopefully they do a better job than our fellow XY chromosome brethren.

I was kidding (that means joking, not having a baby goat), women are too smart to want to inherit this screwed (that means broken, not sex, well maybe, whatever) up world. ;)
This 'multi-lingual' stuff is hard. :-)

Book of grudges sounds nice but I didn't knew that it was some warhammer thing.

That's where it comes from, well having an actual book to record them.Which, historically, is simply based on the old tradition of wergild:)

So you mean you are not giving birth to a goat? And here I was thinking you were some kind of Satyr. :-)

EndreWhiteMane: As a side note I am starting to type (and talk) in a mix of 3 different versions of English, it's driving my spell checker, and fellow employees, bonkers! :-)
You Brits and Aussies have corrupted my perfectly boring mid-western American English. :-)
avatar
moonshineshadow: That is the problem when you are native English. For me it is great, I am learning new things :D
I lost your post in all this silliness. ;)
I think people that learn English as a second language speak it much better than those born into it.
Most of the 'slang' and local variations get left out making it more precise and concise. The only way I can tell sometimes is that those who speak it as a second language, such as you, do it much better than I do. :-)
'mom' which stands for Mother of mine, and 'mum' which (I think, DD?) is just a variation of 'ma'am' are both used for what would be the correct word 'Mother'.
Learning is fun but don't let us mess up a perfectly good language for you. :-)

Mum and ma'am are two different words. One is short for mother, the other is a term used to politely address a woman, often a woman in authority, such as a higher ranking police officer, or royalty etc.
