Oh, I forgot that.

 

[Chimaera]

So, I reached the summit of Mount Cerro Chirripo on Friday.

 

[King Richard]

Due to the fan outcry of my horrible name change, I have reverted back to the original awesomeness that is King Richard. And so it shall stay...forever.

That is all, carry on.

 

[The Emptier]

Good choice

 

[SentinelSlain]

Because countries are refereed as female.

What about when they get called the Fatherland?

 

[Zephyrus]

Because countries are refereed as female.

I take it you never studied German.

Exempli gratia:

Der Turkei (Turkey - masculine)
Die Schweiz (Switzerland - feminine)
Das Griechenland (Greece - neuter)

Also in French and I'm sure myriad other tongues.

 

[Cronopio]

Der Turkei (Turkey - masculine)

Sorry dude, it's called die Turkei, unless you're using the dative or genitive case, in which case (no pun intended) it would be der Turkei.

Also Greece is Griechenland (without the article) in German.

 

[damnromulans]

lol Zeph has gotten burned on his German a lot

 

[-CC-]

So they put up Season 1-5 of the old X-Men cartoon on Netflix's instant play. Seems like I'm going to be traveling down the nostalgia road for a couple of days!

My mistake. But there are masculine countries.

Also Greece is Griechenland (without the article) in German.

Yes, but it is still neuter.

No. We're saying in English, countries are refereed to as female and not German. I know in German some countries are female and some others are male just like in Arabic.

[The Butt]

Cool tracks, Zeph, really likin' the sound you got going on man.

So, yesterday I bought a pink shirt for my suit. Not sure what possessed me but it looks pretty good.

 

[SentinelSlain]

I got a plain black tshirt and a gray one with a picture of a ghetto blaster on it.

 

[Tonka Time]

Ghetto blasters are nice.

Packed up for two weeks in vegas with my family. My grandparents have a really nice house out there on a golf course but most of our time will be spent hiking all over the place. My uncle planned this huge trip out and I see it ending up like 127 hours.

 

[Krigloch the Furious]

WTF, the US needs to start putting this shit in the net

 

[Vimana]

I blasted the fucking Pokemon theme song in the ghetto from the van of these locals I was in.

 

[Krigloch the Furious]

[unknown]
