But it's got the Mr Mopery Seal of Approval on it, so that's only to be expected, Luvian.
Had a good laugh out of it, Mr Mopery. [img]graemlins/thumbsup.gif[/img]

Uh huh... but my hamster was adorable and shaky, and he wasn't even blind...

Very weird.

Question #1: A bindlestiff is... The third answer

Question #2: Shouldn't have given coma as such an easy answer...

Question #5: Translate from Polish... The third answer again. Did some of you actually know the answer or just guess?

And yes...a bit weird, most of it. But it beats banality, hands down, every time. Besides, when you consider that I spent 6 years in all-boys military school, I'm pretty normal.

Ahh, I'm Slovene and I just guessed (it kind of sounded familiar [img]tongue.gif[/img] ). I thought "posladek" would mean something like "dessert" (because it means that in Slovene). I understood that "jest" was some form of "are". And I thought that "niebeski" meant "heavenly" (nebeski = heavenly in Slovene), but blue makes sense too, since sky (=heaven) is blue. So I chose the right one, YAY! [img]tongue.gif[/img]
Though that buttock part freaked me out since I thought the word meant dessert.. [img]tongue.gif[/img]

Got reprogrammed--force to watch crazy stuff with his eyes clamped open for hours on end. Result: any sexual or "ultra"-violet thoughts reduced him to a quivering mess of dry-heaves. Saw it as a play in Chicago's Steppenwolf theater...very cool.
