FearfulSymmetry: Oh, that sounds like fun! Mine is about women in three books by Geoffrey Chaucer (famous for the Canterbury Tales).

Ja, prima, alleen vermoeid. Jij?

We'll keep em guessing. Or using google translate.
Ik voel me best lekker in mijn vel; alleen moet ik ook pillen slikken, en die durven al wel eens vervelende bijwerkingen te hebben (meer honger tussendoor en slaperigheid).

Maar ik slaap wel heel goed 's nachts. Niet in het minst door alle waanzinnig lollige dromen die zich keer op keer blijven voordoen ;)

En soms wat last van dwanggedachten, maar dat is tegenwoordig slechts nog bij vlagen.

So, all in all, I'm doing well ;p *maak een lange neus naar de rest*

ddickinson: Do Mormons have a sense of humour? If they do, that means we can all make (tasteful) Mormon jokes? :-)
I dunno... My family never had a problem with Mormon jokes. Some others have no humour at all though (see our runner-up for the last presidential election ;-p)

Good morning (afternoon and evening) everyone!

Hope you all are doing well, and even better than expected, on this week's beginning Monday...

All is well here, and happily I made it through to the beginning of June without buying any more games! (or anything else non-essential) heh!
Now I can pour some coins back into the game budget .

edit...

hmm, there be trolls about in the Forum lately? Some of the Steam drifters perhaps?

I guess it goes on the person, the joke, and how easily offended the person is.

Are you feeling any better today? Remember that you feeling better means that Owl might feel better?

Indeed.

I am feeling a bit better, thanks :-) I hope Owl hears the news. I'd love for her to feel better, too (:'-| (<--sad puppy face)

Hello! Did I mention yet we actually had two live American tourists walking through the street here yesterday? They seemed quite amused at the thick accents people who they asked the way threw at them. You probably never heard someone from Limburg speak english though, I'll try to remedy that somehow ;)

Trolls? I mostly stick to this topic (and this is the only forum where I actually participate in ordinary conversation), but I was under impression most folk on GOG were amiable live and let live people? If there is indeed a big influx of steam people that would answer a lot (not generally an extremely laudable bunch, those..)

Does Hercule Poirot count as being close to someone speaking English from Limburg? (sure, it's just an actor playing the role, and probably not even from Belgium). heh!

Well, we shouldn't single out Steam users alone, as the internet itself lends a voice to the most abrasive personalities among us, in everyone country, and it seems to a lesser extent in Game Forums. I admit I do like to confront the knuckle draggers and confound them with logic from time to time... or kill them with kindness. ;)

(that's the province of Limburg, I even recognize the shoot of the cannon from real life. At 1:16 you can see Maaseik in the lower left corner (2nd clip)...which is where I live :P (come at me Rumanians....)

And now you've heard some Limburgian English too, which is a really elevating experience XD

ddickinson: That's true. I think we are too overly friendly in here, it scares a lot of people off. But it seems to be working out nicely so far. :-)

Fingers crossed everything will go great for you. I wish you all the best and hope you get the grades you have worked so hard for!

*big happy hug*
Yep, I think it's working just fine. :)

Thank you so much, that's really nice of you! :)

Ugh, dat is niet zo fijn, maar werken de pillen verder wel? En haha, ik heb altijd alleen nachtmerries. :P

Dwanggedachten? Dat is niet leuk. Ik had vroeger een lichte vorm van dwangcompulsies maar dat is gelukkig bijgetrokken.

On another note, I just found out I brought the dog's food instead of the food my mother prepared for me. I'm on a roll.

You are very welcome. I really do hope that you will do great!

I am not sure if things are the same in the Netherlands, but in the UK dog/cat food is completely safe for human consumption (it has to be by law). So why not try something new? Yummy! :-)

I hope so to. It would make my day to hear that things have been going better for her.

I watched the videos, thanks for posting them. :)

Now I want to visit Europe more so than just a passing fancy. Perhaps after I finish the books I'll make an effort to run around under those skies for a month or two, whilst I have no binding obligations here to keep me pinned down. heh!

Our lovely little Owl is not feeling well? It must be trying to conquer the Galaxy.

<sends cheerful hugs in spirit to Owl>

Well, I'm sure slightly undercooked green beans and ... some sort of meat are incredibly delicious, but I just went to the supermarket to get some rice instead. :P
