Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.
The last thing that made me smile?
duck = Aflac!
I'm listening to the Sedaris bit right now AIFG!!!
Singing at the gym verboten or not? I forgot ny headphones and a woman two machines down was singing VERY LOUDLY and VERY off key (she was wearing headphones). I could only stand it for ten minutes before I just walked away and ended my workout.
This discussion reminds me of a survey my favorite Israeli film site did, when the transformers movie was released. They asked what was the sound they did when changing from robots into whatever-it-is-they're-changing-into. They had all these options, IIRC, 5 or 6 of them, all just like the ones we keep writing above for roosters and ducks and stuff. The last option on the survey was "you're all out of your mind".
From listening to Fenris, I've translated "Arf! Arrr-ooooooo-arr-ooo-ooo-ooo Arf!" from the Beagle dialect of Dog to translate to English as "Hey sissy squirrel, come down here and I'll open a can of whoop-ass on you."

You know, hitting people counts as a workout too....

Santa doesn't SPEAK spanish. "Hello, how are you, can I get you some candy?" FINE. He knows enough to get by. But he's not fluent and he certainly doesn't eat *tapas*
Singing at the gym verboten or not?
Absolutely fucking verboten. Impolite as all hell. Besides, if you're able to sing while doing cardio, you're doing it wrong.
I'm going to say that singing out loud inside any place that is not designed for singing is a Bad Idea.
