You've been posting while watching "Go Fish" again, haven't you?
She has a Live Journal, you know. *tempt* So do amorphia, clarrie, Amish Boy, nails, Catriona, etc., etc., etc.
I know not this "Live Journal." Which internet is it on?
Those wackily perceptive Germans.
between this and schadenfreude, german is rapidly becoming my favorite language.
I was trying to get the last of the dishsoap out and it was making ungodly noises.
Even more amusing that the sound was EXACTLY like the sounds one of my former obnoxiously loud neighbors when they were in, um, the throes of sex.
I'm really glad they moved.

You know, I haven't. Well, semi-recently, but probably a month or two ago. We've been rewatching in order. Last night, we fell asleep to the dulcet tones of Blood Ties. get out Get Out GET OUT

This *very* one, and it is free, and many of the terminally whupped find it convenient for finding their people, and having conversations, when time permits. [link]
You know, I haven't.
Well, if you weren't hitting random keys whilst watching Xander. In a Speedo. Wet., what the heck does "backpfeifengesicht" mean?

Sounds like a communist plot to me.
German also has the really cool Handschuhe and Pfliegermaus, to name two personal favorites. Also, Schweinhund.

SKIPPER. It means a face that cries out for a fist in it.

Fun with German (spelling optional)
Rollentreppe --Rolling steps, ie, escalator.
Schmetterling --thing to step on, ie, butterfly. (that's the definition my Hubby always told me, but I figure it's more "thing that looks like it's been stepped on" from how it looks when the wings are opened. Hubby's birth language is German, because his military family moved to Germany when he was 3 days old, and the family was told to speak German as much as possible so they could blend in, since it was the height of the Cold War. He remembers hiding under a car with his little sister and watching tanks rolling by when the Berlin Wall went up)
SKIPPER.
No, SKIMMER.

Well, of course! What other meaning could those letters strung together have! @@

I love German. I don't speak it, but I remember when my college roommate was taking it. A lot of words are just a bunch of words strung together. It's amusing.
