[The Flash]

a.k.a. Planned Rage Quit

No such thing exists, you just made that up.

Flash, I wasn't bitching. That was a planned PR action. And it worked.

Well, that's YOUR opinion

So, last night I decided that I'm going to do a power week, starting right on Monday morning. I went to bed at twelve, hoping to get up at six (short sleep, but it works), hoping that I'd have about three hours of work done by the time I had to be at the library at eleven, then go straight to the uni and have another two hours worth of work done till my course started, then get home, work for another two hours and then call it a day.

I fell asleep at five AM and got up at half eleven, and of course I've been in a major rush since and haven't gotten anything done. Fuck yeah.

So ist das Leben.

I already thought is was a campaign. It certainly worked since some people who usually don't compete, such as Cornfed, Wingman & Travis, voted.

Klugscheißer.

Didn't you get rid of the "ß" symbol?

 

[Forostar]

half eleven

Perun is indeed tired.

Not completely. It's still used if it follows long vowels and diphthongs. I.e. you write "Scheiße", "ich scheiße", "du scheißt", but "ich schiss", "du schissest".

Perun is indeed tired.

Eh?

 

[Forostar]

In English it's half past or am I mistaken here?

I know

You can say both, actually. In Britain, you at least colloquially say "half eleven".

 

[Ariana]

Oh, I see. You could have chosen another verb to illustrate what you mean, though. Schließen, for example.

Indeed, I could have.

So, how good is everyone's German, actually?

 

[Ariana]

Mine used to be better. I used to study German as a kid and I spent nearly a year in Germany in 2001/2002. I haven't used it at all since then, so it's pretty much all gone.

 

[Perun]

Where in Germany were you?

Alright, I wasn't aware of that.
