Like calling a hood a "bonnet" or a line a queue...

Aren't both of those words French??

Erm, a hood and bonnet are different things, as is a line and a queue. Your average american couldn't handle that many words though, so changes were made.

 

[TdC]

I'm half Scots half Dutch I'll have you know. I'll take whatever new words you come up with, mispronounce them, spell them incorrectly, use them out of context and inappropriately just to take the piss out of your vile, irregular, hard to pronounce and hard to spell little language

please Please PLEASE! explain to me the difference between a hood and a bonnet. It's something I've always wanted to know...

 

[Ch3tan]

A Hood:

A bonnet:

Spoiler

both

apparently the word bonnet was too long, and most americans would forget when trying to describe that area of their card. True fact.

Could you spell the name of the town you live in? I mean, without fifteen letter "o"'s

 

[TdC]

bah, that's cheating

 

[Son of Sluggish]

Well, you wankers (lol) are no help at all.

 

[Ch3tan]

Seriously, you guys just decided to make up a new word for something that already had a name.

we got together and put it to a vote.

 

[Scouse]

we got together and put it to a vote.

I take it all back. We can't do that right in THIS country...


Anyway - hood and bonnet - different styles of head-covering, as displayed in the pictures...

...you do know what pictures are, don't you?

 

[Son of Sluggish]

...you do know what pictures are, don't you?

I've heard tales told.

I don't think that will translate well...

Well that's rather apt, regarding per example Finalnd and winter war.

Outmanned, outgeared, outrageous

Yet...well...Finns are known around the world for their fighting record.

Scouse;

The immigration of Northern europe is so deviant and back-forth like a good night on the red light district, that we can't really say who immigrated from where

Russia was formed by the Rus for example, who moved there from Finnish soil(which was then a united norway/sweden/finland).

It's nice though, 'cause we're more or less in that state these days again.

A bit back in the thread, I know, but I just got here.

 

[Son of Sluggish]

Was that before or after they surrendered?

 

[SWtarget]

I always thought that was an urban myth, like the "don't use your microwave to dry wet pets" thing. so it's actually true? holy shit o0

I actually worked for one of the insurance companies involved in the infamous McDonald's coffee lawsuit. Elderly lady, purchased the coffee at a drive up window, spilled the whole cup in her lap. They estimated the coffee had to be over 200F degrees (roughly 93C to you Eurotypes) to cause the types of burns she ended up with. Of course, it didn't help that she the driver of the car didn't pull over and that they didn't try to remove the hot-liquid-soaked clothes she was wearing . . .

But, you ask for a jury trial, and get the jury to be sympathetic to your side, and they award the big bucks. The initial award was reduced on appeal, but still was a good chunk of change.

This was one of my all time favorite "run away jury awards", though.

The BMW vs Gore "Paint Job" Case - Legal Briefs - Law Office of Roland B. Darby - Houston, Texas

$4,000,000 punative award for a $4,000 paint job (reduced to $2,000,000 on appeal). Of course, this blood sucking lawyer site thinks it was a good thing . . . Personally I think it is disgusting.

The Russians entered WWII with Germany by carving up Poland. They entered the war as an aggressor, then they were attacked by one of their allies. Fuck them.

The Russians lost millions of people because they are incompetent, drunken idiots.

 

[SWtarget]

You goof, we've been over this. Norway surrendered, not Finland.

lol... My bad. You got me.

Nothing to do with being drunk. It was to do with lack of equipment.

We owe a lot to Russia. Without the millions of lives they sacrificed there's no doubt o'l Hitler would have won...

 

[Grits]

Yeah, the Finns switched sides, but at least they kept fighting. The Vagwegians just rolled over and let the Germans impregnate their women.

I'm a "Yank" but I like most Brits I've met and I can even have a decent discussion with Beetle. Still, I enjoy making fun of Brits and Canadians, its kinda like making fun of your ugly cousin.

 

[FWRollins]

People are posting opinions and information. Moderation is needed. This lunacy can't stand.
Editing needs to be done and egos inflated.

Really? What did the Russians do to help anyone, other than themselves? All they did was defend themselves to save their lives and nothing more. The Russians never helped anyone. They were allies with Germany and they had no problem with going into Poland, but they cried like whores when the fight came to them. I have ZERO respect for those fucking Russians. What good has EVER come out of Russia?

You think Russia came to your rescue to save you from Germany? LOL.

The only thing I can think of is there are a lot of hot young female Russian/Ukrainian tennis players, other than that not much.

The Russians would not have blinked an eye in the unlikely event Hitler actually crossed the channel and taken Britain, you can believe that. More likely Stalin would have entered into another pact with Hitler to split the UK between them like they did Poland. Luckily for the Brits they had the US (although we should have been in the fight before Dec '41 if you ask me) to back them up.

 

[FWNuke]

Pay your fine gadfly. lol!

Hey Pat, can I hire you as my lawyer? I need someone like you who is "blessed with the ability to read".

 

[FWNuke]

Live strong, gadfly! lol.

Ironside gadfly is my choice of lawyer, lol! Pay you fines irongadfly.

 

[FWNuke]

I noticed how you stopped all of your activities after that. Maybe you have been to court so many times and learned something, gadfly.
