News:

if there were no need for 'engineers from the quantum plenum' then we should not have any unanswered scientific questions.

Faen tallah (sp?)!  Yay, love it.  I especially like when he really goes to town at 0:23.    To my American ears it sounds like playing a record backwards.  ;D ;D ;D

"Faen ta deg" Literal translation "Devil take you" Use equal to "Fuck off" Or "go to hell". Pressure on the underlined letters.

"Helvete" is also a good strong norwegian curse word. Very commonly used by us northern norwegians. Literally means "hell". Very useful if you hurt yourself.

Pronunciation?  Hel-veet?  Hel-vee-teh?  Hel-veh-teh?

Listen to the corus of this silly song.

I think we might have to branch this off. A new thread for "the art of cussing" perhaps?

Time to call the cavalry.

I always thought we needed a "how to curse where YOU'RE from" thread.

If nothing else this demonstrates the futility of age varification on the internet  :D

There was a time where this video didn't have an age restriction. That was put on recently.  :P

Nothing I've found on YT so far, exept maybe for that vid of that Syrian kid's rotting remains, warrants an age limit in the first place...

...According to me, of course.

There were pictures in this post. They've been removed, because I prefer not to post any pictures of myself anywhere online for too long. If you'd still like to see them, please PM me. :)

OMFSM!  To be a young man in the middle of four beautiful young women - and he's gay.  :'(

Come to think of it, maybe that's how he gets to be there.

Actually, I could not wait to tell my straight guy friends about the night I was surrounded by hot babes who wanted my phone number...  Jealous would be an understatement.

The explanation: Until 2004, although I was out of the closet and called myself agnostic after leaving Christianity, I still suffered large pangs of guilt and religious fear.  Finally, in 2004, I was ready to commit to atheism--but not before a brief dabble in Wicca as a sort of compromise between theism and atheism.  I found a group here in New York and went to a meeting.  As luck would have it, that particular group was about 90% female, and, since the meeting was on a weekend with nice weather in the middle of the summer, none of the male regulars came.  I was a noobie and the only male, and everyone wanted to hear my story and let me know that I could talk to them if I had spiritual issues, this despite my being openly gay.

My straight friends said that they should convert to Wicca...  :D

Asmo, you are so fluffy! Urge to swuish you rising.

I used to have three lip piercings, but took em out around 22 years old because i hated taking them out for job stuff. People and their prejudice suck.

I think I was 21 here. My friend and I had a random glam rock day. XDD

I have always had a soft spot for punks and goths ever since I watched the original Degrassi High and wanted to have a friend like Spike.  I adore her.  

Anyway...  There was an episode in which she was not hired for a job because of her punk hair.  (I do show bits and pieces of Degrassi in my ESL classes.  Maybe I should consider showing that event and have students discuss it...)
