26. You're KILLING me here, Squatch! |
|
I'm trying to remember Yiddish, which I haven't heard spoken since my grandmother passed 20 years ago, and which is an imprecise pidgin language to begin with! You're making me look stuff up. I can converse only in English. Didn't mean to lead you on.
Peace. ;)

That is parent speak for - "you want something to do?" Good Lord, I have about fifteen things I want to do before going to work in three hours, and one of those things is "sit around and read and write for about five hours" and another is "do four hours worth of research" and you are complaining about boredom. You want to learn other languages so you can complain about boredom to the whole world? Here's an assignment: go read the short story "For breath I tarry" by Roger Zelazny. It is in the short story collection "The Last Defender of Camelot" Or have you already done that?

28. sure I saw that on TV |

it looked like they were all riding segues there. I guess that can be as boring as a power-outage, but sheesh you still have the net and tons of really funny and brilliant things to read on DU from people like, like, say, for example, hfojvt. (well, at least the effort is there). Plus, you are probably getting paid.

31. I am posting in this thread. |

Therefore, I must be bored to tears.
That is the language of logic. :hi:
