Something about the way she's into it 110 % just cracks me up.

There are lots of things that are only funny because they are wrong, particularly if you are 13. Can't believe I'm standing up for the beeb. We used to tell all kinds of horrible holocaust jokes in school, I guess this would be the American version of that with all the white guilt from slavery.

Am i right in reading the subtext, Shumacher is still in a coma ?

Got home from a long day at work to find two girls at the door to the courtyard, one peeing and one puking. Must be distortion this weekend. We discussed putting armed guards out front to deter the curious among them, only half kidding.

mad chick magnet tho, just dropping it into a casual conversation.

I'm curious Oby, does it pay anything or is it like a labour of love kinda thing. (sorry for being off topic)

Does the test actually tell you at any point that it's incorrect? I saw no grading of any of the actual individual answers. I do agree that it's a valid sentence though, particularly if it's in response to the question "Did you end up going to the beach today, or did you go somewhere else?" "We *did* go to the beach, and it was lovely". Note the sentence does not have a "to" in it. We did go the beach We did go to the beach Makes sense, we don't actually read by looking at the order the letters appear in but recognise groups of meaning and quickly move on to the next thing. Possible flaw with the methodology as the same mistake would almost certainly have been caught if we were hearing it rather than reading.

I have issues with some of the questions We did go the beach That's not actually incorrect, if you weren't able to say 'We went to the beach' it is, but in a different context it would be fine.

Dialect 1. US Black Vernacular / Ebonics 2. Singaporean 3. American (Standard) First Language 1. Dutch 2. English 3. Vietnamese Figures, I learnt English from watching TV. I think I already told the algorithm where I live and what my first language was, so why is it telling me different.

And before that the KV1 and then T34 which most people still call the best tank of WW2 from a cost-benefit perspective. It's not only what you have, but how you use it. Fortunately the russians were able to turn things around but for the first season on the eastern front they were outclassed in every engangement. As much we hate to admit it, the Nazis were the better soldiers. It only took an SS panzer corps to delay the entire Normandy invasion despite being massively outnumbered and without aircover. Case in point, one tank fends off an allied flanking move, alone for the most part. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Michael_Wittmann

umm

I suspect they bought this to maintain their street cred. Not that they have any. No way do I believe that this passed through offical development channels.

Yes the coffee price was set to go up because of the bad rain in Brazil effecting the coffee crops . That guy is right by the way, honey is better for you..but I suppose you are already so sweet you don't need to become sweeter Trouble is that most honey you buy in supermarkets is so diluted it's basically just syrup with beehive for thickener. Real honey, like what they sell at the side of the road, or increasingly in cities with rooftop hives, has all that goodness from the flowers.

It's just an agreement not to bother waging war on oneanother because we have had enough. It's the smart thing. The rest of the world can benifit as well, just have entire generations die in pointless pursuits of Empire twice in a row.

If I just had coffe and cigarettes I would be alright stranded on an island. I would probably starve to death not having any survivalist skills, but I would be alright.

I don't know who Maja Angelou is but now I want soup.

You right they omitted the DPP for some reason but what does the DPP stand for politically ? I can google it but I prefer to get the view of people who live in Denmark Immigration = bad. EU = bad. Muslims in general = bad. Danish values = good, although no one seems to know exactly what those are.

There's nothing about DPP on that page, or I'm blind.

Gorgon do you feel guilty that most of the international news channels are positioning Denmark as being one of the EU countries where the far right has gained immense popularity? Do you think you personally could have done more to counter this rise of the right in your country? The international News don't know what they are talking about, but it's hard to blame them when one of the front runners is called Morten Messerschmidt. He once got really drunk in Tivoli gardens and started 'heiling', true story. It was entirely a joke, but all the associations are there.

I don't actually remember the EU being popular ever as such, most of the major national parties realise that it's necessary. It's partially my fault actually, I didn't bother voting. Also it's not the 'far right' in Denmark. It's your slightly racist grandmother's party, the 'medium right', and as we all know, old people vote. They don't want to be associated with front nationalle and their like and have rejected forming such alliances.

It's finger cancer man. You're not long for this world.

I thought the problem was that the ballots looked very much like they were stacked, like someone put them there in one go.

I guess there is no harm in instituting some sort of regular regimen, nothing spectacular just some pushups. Not going to join a gym this time, I learned my lesson. That just ends up making you feel like a sucker for paying and not using it.
