'... why do all these people think we're gay?'

[sillie82]

So... my birthday was okay. My grandparents came by, and my cousin. My friend Jessica couldn't come, but will probably come by next monday. Haven't gotten any presents yet from my parents, simply because of the fact that I don't know what to ask. :'3 Got the record amount of 1 card from my family. (And I'm from a big family. Both my mom and dad

'blauwzuurgas' dat klinkt erg onsmakelijk. You better keep your windows closed!

Sorry to sneek-reading your comments like this (but hey - they are public). I LOVE reading dutch! I'm Norwegian and there is quite a lot of similarities between Norwegian and dutch. A dutch friend and I used to send emails to each outher, where she wrote in dutch, I had to translate it into English (how much I understood) and then reply in Norwegian. ANd she then did the same thing... :-)

So - Blauzuurgas - that must be blåsyre or blåsyregass as it's really is, don't know what that is in English.
dat = that? (det in no.)
onsmakelijk = 'usmakelig', not a word I usually would use in Norwegian like this, but it is a synonym to discusting. :-)
So I guess you're saying that 'blåsyre' is discusting :-)
Am I right?

And I agree.... blåsyre is not good - keep your windows closed!

Wahey, I love reading Norwegian, the words that are similar are a lot of fun. (even more when they turn out to mean something completely different, that usually happens when you compare German to Dutch;)
You are absolutely right! Well done:) 'smakelijk' = 'tasty' in English, so the opposite would be disgusting :-p

yup "smakelig" is tasy as well - so "usmakelig" is (un-tasty = discusting) :-) Bon apetit in Norwegian is smakelig måltid (tasty meal) :-)

In norwegian I use the word usmaklig as in "Usmakelig oppførsel" = rude behaviour (moraly rude as when an old 'pig' is oogeling a young girl)
or the food is 'usmakelig' etc..
Basically whenever something 'give bade taste in the mouth' it's usmakelig.

Is it true that wasp in dutch are vesp? (or pronounced like that)
I think I rember that from when I was a kid and a dutch guy were living with us until he found an apartment (he was working with my dad). He thought it was fun that the kids in Holland always sayd veps instead of vesp.... and in Norway, where the correct word is veps, we always say vesp when we're kids.. :-)

Awesome pics!

Did you notice in the last pic that thing on Sam's arm? I wonder what it is...

I cannot wait for this episode! :D

They are. *nods*

I've been wondering about it too. There has been some speculating about it, but I guess we'll just have to wait. *bites nails*
