nice one, I never thought of this before... any thoughts?

I use a plain blue background ( R 0, B 64, G 0). I find it easy on the eyes, and I think it saves ram, so I like it even more.

I've had pictures in the past, even tiled backgrounds, but after a while I get really tired of them.

I always like a minimalist approach. But if I could I would modify Windows' interface and get a complete Amiga WB makeover, just for the sake of it and because oldskool Amiga rocks!!

mmm my desk is a mess. let's see.. it's hard because like my other messy desk, shit piles up in layers...

12 year old computer speakers, philips monitor, unused flatbed scanner (I really should install it, it's just taking up space), lost of plastic cd sleeves, some cd games (PS1 and pc), the puggo grande, a laurel and hardy dvd, floppy disks, a screwdriver (I always have one or more sitting nearby), a sidewinder gamepad, a steering wheel which I rarely use, a usb midisport (for those who don't know it's a thingamabob to connect a midi keyboard to a pc via usb), cables, jack plugs, assorted junk, a book with beatles songs and chords and a guitar pick.

pretty much

... See, I don't see a problem with someone getting a brief glimpse of me and then forgetting about it in the onslaught of thousands of other passengers.  If airport security has access to "nude" pictures of everyone, though, and could access them at any time, THEN I could definitely see that being an invasion of privacy...

I imagine if they do keep an archive, just give it time and something's gonna end up on the internet.

oh yeah????

these don't need a category:

While I wouldn't go so far to say that I don't think they should ever be translated, in translation I think it is an absolute necessity to do so. But I agree with you 100% as to the trickiness of translating them, and the cultural complexity of curse words.

 

yeah, in my prev. post I probably forgot to add "literally", as in they should never be translated literally. otherwise you've hit it on the nail, with the phrase "cultural complexity"; they sure are tricky...

and I agree with Bingo's above points. I ALWAYS wear my seat belt, even for the shortest trip, say the greengrocer's. Just because you never know. You never know what might happen to you (i.e. sudden loss of control of the vehicle) or to the other drivers.

When going out with people, if I'm driving that night I NEVER drink.

On these two things I never make exceptions.

Now, as for smoking, I don't smoke by habit. Once in a while I will have a cigarette, just to celebrate something like an exam, or because it's too goddamn cold and I want something warm, or to "shock" my friends who never saw me smoke (for a laugh). [and everytime I smoke I'll cough like there's no tomorrow LOL]

I know smoking is bad for one's health, and I think many smokers are well aware of that too.

Alchool, just like water, is to be taken with moderation. I don't always follow this one, but hey, pobody's nerfect!

love that. saw the episode a couple of days ago. gotta love it when ned hears homer breathing noisily through his nose in church!!

I would probably take up smoking if I weren't so stingy.

Believe me or not, I haven't dared watching for the translation of this word yet. I indeed thought of something like your 1st image.

I don't think foreign curse words should ever be translated. There is no literal translation for a curse word, IMHO, it is always defined by the cultural context and usage. There is so much meaning, even in very short words, that wouldn't "make it to the other side" in a literal translation, if you know what I mean. I rarely look up the definition of a foreign curse word, when I hear a new one. Usually I let the context define it for me.

Hey, this could be really interesting, guys. Why, it could even deserve its own topic!
