Social Off Topic Thread - House of Dastardly Crax

[allrighty]

Ich kann spreche Deutsch.

I don't - I speak crap pretty well though.

I was mortified to find out that my high school French teacher learned her lessons the night before teaching us. One of my older brother's friends was a teacher there and told me! Hence je non speak francais pas . Or deutsche . Just crap.

As a kid I dreamed of being a lawyer. Then I did a couple of law subjects as a part of my commerce degree first year... The dream quickly faded... Not for me.

I realised my brain is wired more for mathematics than law (find copious amounts or reading/theory hard to remember, but not mathematical problems)...

Well at least I found this out early. Was initially planning to do post grad law.

I did an MBA many years ago and loved the law subjects. May have missed my calling I think.

Have a few lawyer friends, one who could be a standup legend he is that funny. Love the conceptual framework/construct (?) of law.

Well, I don't speak French, and I never went to uni. I feel like a troglodyte among all of you very learned people.

Being learned/educated does not stop someone from being a w***er .

Ah- the thread's just very new, CL. Good morning to you!! Buon giorno!!
Did you learn languages at school?

Lol- eyes a bit bleary this morning. Thought that said "trilobite" at first. Was discussing with a friend a few days ago- she's a geo and studied in NZ and we were just talking about her son doing a Geology unit at Uni and trilobites popped up in the conversation.
Ever played Word Association??

 

[Teriyakicat]

French for what that was worth and of course pig latin
love word association and word games

You've got a quick mind Do you do the crosswords in the paper, too?

 

[Teriyakicat]

Oh- and I did Italian for 4 years. 1 really great teacher and 1 really crappy teacher. Don't think I learned anything with the second one

Lol- how fast can you speak pig latin?

 

[Teriyakicat]

Haha- I can imagine you walking around the house talking to your vacuum cleaner in PL

Some might still be asleep - SquishyKitty and Rainfall
I don't have to be up for another half an hour
Some might be working.

I love cryptic crosswords and sudoku. Always do some Sudoku on my iPad and the CC in the paper. Sometimes not very well- particularly if I haven't done them for a while. I think my brain goes backward after having a break

 

[allrighty]

Well I'm off to Budney to catch up with Kitty - and do some work - so will report back to you all.

 

[Teriyakicat]

Have a great trip, Allrighty! Are you in Sydney for long?

Oops.. Budney
I keep forgetting who owns it now

Yes! It's good value when you're pissed!

I'm silly enough when I'm sober!!

 

[karencatsfan]

I don't get the idea of this thread. Isn't it chit chat?

 

[Teriyakicat]

Have you got much to do? Time-wise, I mean?

Teriyakicat, is this the new chit chat?

If so, should we ask the mods to merge the 2 threads? Otherwise it gets messy.

 

[Moneypenny]

HOW long has this thread been going ? 2 seconds ? lol
oodgay orningmay to you all .

Nuttella from a spoon

Midsomer Murders


Moneypenny, how is 007 these days ?

Oh James is fine, just laying low after he died and all. I never know where he goes but hopefully he'll turn up soon!

Teriyakicat and SquishyKitty found that Chit Chat got too bogged down with discussion on certain topics, I think this is a lighter, breezier affair where you can just pop in and say hello

I thought chit chat flowed from topic to topic without too much of a hiccup.
Just think it's confusing when we have to pop from thread to thread to have a chit chat.

I never really ventured in there because I had no idea what the main point of discussion was and never found an opportunity to pipe up about something, but you're going to have to talk to one of those girls if you think it should be merged.

But that's the same as here then? No main point, can flow in and out.
Sorry, I'm confused, did ask TC, but she must be busy.

All day 8.30 to 5. Have to be up before the crack of noon for this one.
