Things you can't say in public.

Quite right. You can't say that in public.

At a acting seminar, the speaker said, referring to getting headshots taken:

"Now, for 500 dollars, we can have you shot."

I hate Greek people...

Did I loose something? Why?

Because he's a time-traveller and he knows that in the future

Not too long ago, in my Geometry class, my teacher said (referring to a group of kids playing around on some TI calculators)

"You guys, stop playing with those things and put the covers back on."

:o

[esper]

Does that make more sense in a different language?

[Kinoko]

"cunt".

Funny you should mention that now. A great artist friend of mine is in the middle of a fight to be able to sell his comic, `CUNT`at a local comic convention here.

Here`s the comic if anyone's interested: http://chickennation.com/cunt/

as far as I can tell, he's being barred from a privately-funded convention on grounds on the name and content of his comic. I don't see the problem, or where the 'fight' is. I personally enjoy people eating shit, but someone who funds and organizes a local convention might not.  Tell your great artist friend of yours to not blow this out of proportion.

Here's something you can't say in public. Or, at any rate, type in IRC.

* Zoot climaxes

Spoiler

To put it in context, that was followed by:

Zoot: this cake is gorgeous

...but then, if you take context, then all of these things can be said, no?

After the childishness of the "fight", I really didn't want to like the comic, but Raymundo Person is pretty damn good. I particularly like the Tobias character you took your avatar from.
Thanks!

[Kinoko]

Glad you liked it. I love pretty much everything he does but I really think Ray has come out well. It's easily one of the best things he's ever done so I like pimping it. `Cunt` is definitely not to everyone's taste but it made me laugh, mostly I think because I know the guy behind it and I can appreciate what he was trying to do with it.

My friend lent against a hot  radiator in collage, and shouted, 'F*CK, MY ARSE!'.

"Brainstorming" has been banned in this country, I can't remember what you're supposed to use in its place but apparently brain storming offends people with mind problems, epilepsy, autism etc.

"Headmaster" has also been chucked. And I doubt shouting "Al Q'aeda" will gain you any favours, either. In 20 years time from now I'll be the word "the" will offend someone and it'll be banned.

Me, a male friend of mine and a female friend of mine, are standing on the parking lot of my old school, where this female friend of mine is currently in. One of her friends comes by and asks her where has she been, and she replies "I showed them some places" and my friend repeats it, and after me and her friend have started laughing he realises...

Damn, I wish it would have actually been what we laughed at

Mods: I think that this country allong with any other that follows this "politcaly correct" thinking is going to hell. I'm sure all of Europe is ready to follow though.

Shit! You can't say anything and even the speed cameras have a warning on the Motorways so that you can slow down right befoer you reach them.

I've seen hundreds of signs: "Mind your head", or "Wet floor". I think it's turning all of us into zombies. Like if a fall, or hit my head it's Tescos' fault. Like I'm not capable of watching after myself...

I didn't know that about brainstorming... Really amazing...

I do remember on Halloween back in Greece a couple of years ago, while in the army, waving a gun above my head screaming :"Osama Bin LadEN" (The Capital's were I put the accents!). I was sentensed 5 days prison for that. But it was funny like hell!

By some quirk of my own language, I have to be very careful when I say "14", because it is very close in sound to the word for "to fuck". It has caused some weird moments.

I can sympathize. In Portuguese, "xixi" is the children's words for urine, similar to "pee", but there's a word in chinese (I think it's thankyou) that's pronounced in exactly the same way.

That's a minor aggrievance, though. Now that I've found out what "rui" (or the phonetic equivalent thereof) means in Russian, I always hesitate before introducing myself to anyone whom I even suspect of understanding that language...

Worry no more! I am Russian and I can tell you that "rui" means absolutely nothing in this language (if it's pronounced same as spelled). All you have to do is to pronounce it loud and clear.

Now here's something more from Russia:

Words "blue" and "rose" now mean more then colors. HINT: you don't want to know that.

BTW: Did you know that "soviet" means advice?

"nigger"
