Did you notice that one of them had taglined Erika? So cool.
Simon: I swear when it's appropriate. Kaylee: Simon, the whole point of swearing is that it ain't appropriate.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset
There seems to be one Swedish-English translation tool on the web, and its server is down. Alas!

You were a wrong baby who grew up wrong. The wrong kind of wrong. It's better you hear it from a friend.
Who reads Swedish?
Well. Swedes, I hear.

What is even happening?
Show offs. Like being tall, blond, and gorgeous, isn't enough.

Hee. We're relativt odödlig. I don't know what it means, but I kind of like the sound of it.
Off to email Sister's Swedish ex-boyfriend.

Who reads Swedish?
Just squint your eyes a bit and twist your mouth a bit when you read the diacritics. You can read it.
I especially like:
Mer Buffista-guld. (More Buffista gold)
and
Buffistas är verkligen en guldgruva! (Buffistas truly are a treasure-trove)
I think that odödlig means cultured or sophisticated, but my Swedish is pretty limited and I don't have a dictionary here.

Ann, that's a ferret.

Sorry, haven't yet seen enough Ingrid Bergman movies.

Alas, my one exposure to the Swedes didn't involve all that much talking.

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?
Alas?
I do not think this means what you think it means.

Oh man, that's so funny. How silly is it that I'm all, "Oh! I COMMed that one; the Swedes (yes, every last one of them) agree with me about what's funny!"
I can't make my mind form an opinion on shows, whitefont, and threads. Well, except that I don't mind the whitefont, whether it's for shows I follow or not. So far, anyway. I suspect I'll keep up with Lost and maybe watch Alias in real time come January. It would be nice to be able to discuss them (ETA: in a fashion that isn't constantly irritating; though, really, there's no way to account for that completely, is there? No.)
