BAB BAB BAB, all I've heard from you the last day is BAB! Which is FINE BY ME, my GALLIC LOVING FRIEND
Maltese is as awful as the north African Arabic dialects; they have no vowels. French is without a doubt the most beautiful language on earth. Finnish, Estonian and Hungarian are all fucking vile. Greek is beautiful. <3 What a typically nordic straight guy comment.
I haven't watched The Bridge but I assume the Swedish that is featured there is Scanian Swedish which is almost Danish and sometimes impossible to understand.
Ha. I think even amongst Nordic straight guys, it's a fairly uncommon opinion. French just gives me a headache. Stop making up pronunciations of shit when it's clearly spelt differently. FRONSE-WA MY FOOT I prefer languages with harsh consonants.
There are clear pronunciation rules, once you learn them it's rather easy. I'd say English is harder when it comes to that.
I've been stepping up my Swedish lately after neglecting it for too long. Remembering when to add a bloody 't' to the end of a word (i.e. lång/långt, stor/stort) drives me fucking nuts!
I know Gaelic is very romantic and all, but in practice I find that nine times out of ten it sounds rough as arseholes.
Rough was probably a harsh way to describe it, but it often feels very CLUNKY. I suppose it's quite rare to hear it spoken as a first language though. My uncle is actually a rare native Gaelic speaker and he used to speak it to me when I was a baby. There are videos of me happily babbling away like a little ginger leprechaun. Don't remember any of it these days, sadly.
Polish is horrific and usually made worse because they're always SHOUTING. When my brother in law phones his family it always sounds like they're having a HUGE ROW but when I look at him he's smiling.
Welsh can be deeply unpleasant or really quite lovely depending on the region. Unpleasant: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IHfqi9tQdEY and https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UwOBwi3IFiE Lovely: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JJ6nYj3hRzI and https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8j04SKBtrdc
Oh God I LOVE Polish. It's all those Kieslowski films. Shame it's such a fucker to learn with those consonant clusters and the completely unmanageable articulation Thinking of one I actually can't stomach is easy: ITALIAN. Bloated load of old rubbish, even if they do have cocks like rolling pins
I'm not biting, I prefer Swedish to Danish (except for that particular dialect) Spanish and Gaelic are lovely languages. I've grown fonder of French but still basically what indie said
I normally find Portuguese the Dutch of the Latin languages, ie nauseating, but strangely didn't mind it when I went there
I've never recovered from my horrible discovery that Cyrillic is named after SAINT CYRIL, who basically nicked a load of Greek letters and threw in some upside-downy bits to create a so-called ALPHABET
I have learnt to love Portuguese. Used to think it sounded eastern European (which is an awful thing) but not anymore.
Oh God call me CALLOUS but put the OLD MAN in a HOME if he is going to phone up the office and ENGAGE in an ELLIPTICAL DEBATE about WHETHER HE IS IN HIS HOME OR NOT for HOURS every day. I know from POOR OLD GRANDAD that it REALLY IS THE BEST THING FOR EVERYONE
Is he quite old? If he's walking into things he could be going blind. He'd not pressing his head against the wall or anything is he?
Yes, we feed her the pate style food and mash it for her, but she still gums back biscuits, even with one tooth.
He'll be 10 this year which is a good age for his breed. He doesn't walk into anything, I think hes just losing his vision at distance. He's got dark spots on his eyes too which hes had for a few years now so I know he has slightly restricted vision, I assume its more of that really. Either that or he sees ghosts.
I went to this local gay party that is held once in 3 months. Of course I hoped that they would play American life. They did play a Die Another Day remix which got a huge reception of the crowd. So as I was sipping from my Smirnoff Ice & Wodka Red Bulls mixed with a few beers I became the cutey of the evening. I was in sarcastich bitch mode. Suddenely American life came on. I knew it was time...I took the straw from my drink (drinking with a straw makes you look so much younger:P) And I made a headset out of it...I climbed onto the podium..where this 18 year old fat cunt was acting like the song sucked. As I stepped up he stepped aside...and I made the motion with my head that he needed to back off. So he did of course. I love being intimidating. So my 2 back up dancers or whatever..Joost and Mark also climbed on stage and danced with me as I sang American Life. I nailed the rap part and well..juding by the amount of numbers I got I must have promoted M. really well.. Annieways I had a blast. I was home at 7 o clock. The fat guy from the stage came on to me..I was waiting near the toilets and he said to me... He: You are child pornography (I get that all the time cause I look quite young) Me: I´m glad you´re getting aroused He: Your dancing was funny but that Madonna song sucks Me: You know what sucks? An overweight, solariumaddict with a gut belly that it trying to squeeze himself in a way to tight shirt He:*with an attitude* Don´t you know who I am? Me: No. Do I wanna know? NO. You´re FAT FAT FAT! Please leave this party after me otherwise you´ll block the door when trying to exit LOL. Ok I was a bitch last night..normally I am quite sweet but he was dissing Mo.

VICTORIA BECKHAM - RACIST? Hey you guys, I'm a huge Victoria Beckham fan but something just struck me, and this feeling has been building up lately, and now its got to the point where I need to express myself. Please don't laugh or shun me, but do you think that its possible that modern icon and former Posh Spice Victoria Beckham is racist? Lets look at the evidence: Supposed argument with Mel B - she falls out with the only coloured member of the group. Coincidence or was this falling out racially motivated on Victoria's part? Victoria is happliy married to famous football superstar David Beckham and has a young son Brooklyn. Both are white. Its possible that this is because she just happeend to fall deeply in love with a white person and have his child, but it seems more likely that she deliberately shunned the black community when choosing a life partner, almost choosing a white person to spite them. When courting, she even dared to bleach his hair blonde, further displaying her feelings of turning him into a speciman of perfect aryan manhood. None of her immediate family are black. On her album cover, she is seen to be holding down a black panther, This is a display of her ideological belief that those black are second-rate (the animal is further down in the picture than Vic, thus reflecting their status), and Victoria seems to be holding it down, reflecting her belief that the black community needs to be held down, and therefore persecuted. Victoria shares the same name as a 19th century queen of the British Empire. During this time, the British were famous for being primarily white, By sharing this name, Victoria brings with her all the connotations of the racism that simmered beneath the surface of 19th century society. Victoria famously called Naomi Campbell a "cow". Naomi is of course black. A racial slur? Victoria wears white to portray the good girl in her latest videos. She wears black to portray the bad girl look. Is this further evidence of her belief that all black people are bad? The evidence is mounting... I would be very interested in hearing what you guys think..
