How many languages do you speak?

Reply 221

I speak English, Swedish and German more or less fluently and a bit of French and Japanese.

I wish I had worked harder to keep my French up - I took it for 3 years in high school but I never followed up on it. There was a time when I could read manga in French, but probably not anymore :-(

Why is it called intelligent design when it's pretty stupid?	[Sep. 30th, 2008\|10:46 am] Infuscare Humanum Est
Aren't autoimmune diseases and cancer the ultimate proof against intelligent design? (That and menstruation >_> There has to be a more efficient way to reproduce than to have women shed their vaginas once a month.) Seriously, though. If god created everything, wouldn't he at least have made sure that people's bodies wouldn't break down randomly and start attacking itself?

True fact about bisexuality (gotten from lj metaquotes): "Just because they had one canon love interest of the opposite sex doesn't mean they can never be with someone of their own gender. Bisexuality exists. In fact, you even get people with heavy preferences one way, and rare moments of attraction/involvement the other way." "Nuh-uh! Everyone's either completely straight or completely gay!" "What about bisexuals?" "They're just indecisive. Once they meet the right man or woman, they'll find their actual sexual orientation and not be at all attracted to the opposite sex." "So if a woman who's been interested in several men dates a woman, she's a complete lesbian who doesn't like men at all, and can never be interested in a man again?" "Exactly!" At which point, I realize I'm talking to Joss Whedon, and forget about the argument in favor of asking for his autograph. - http://community.livejournal.com/metaquotes/6742921.html Ah yes, the thing about Willow annoyed me to no end >_

A teacher filmed a school trip and made a vid with music from Fairlight Children. The result was a surreal music vid and a some very confused commenters.

I don't know if it's a video clip but definitely it is not a song. At least he should not sing it. I never expect that this would happen to me either

Weird comments. This isn't a song? O_o It's a videoclip? OMG! The conspiracy!

Drink another day	[May. 6th, 2008\|05:35 pm] Infuscare Humanum Est
Apparently British white trash star Amy Winehouse is working on a potential theme song for the new Bond movie. Me and oisrisso are less than thrilled.

I like internet activism when it works. I've mostly connected 4chan with lolicon earlier (probably unfaily tbh), but it seems like they are finally doing something with their lives. It's the kind of things that internet should be used for, and it makes me proud to be part of the internet generation. /cyber patriotism

Actually a backlog from work...	[Mar. 11th, 2008\|07:36 pm] Infuscare Humanum Est
I just realised something. If we didn't have free will, if everything we did was govered by biology, suicide would not be possible. .... Unless it was a way to weed out the weak specimens from the gene pool. Damnit.

Ghosts	[Feb. 13th, 2008\|04:43 pm] Infuscare Humanum Est
I'm not sure if I've written about it here, but my cat died this Christmas. Technically, she did not just randomly die - the tumour in her breast has started bleeding so my mother consulted my veterinarian aunt why said it was best to put her down. So on Christmas day the whole family + my boyfriend went off to a local veterinarian to have her killed. She didn't want to die and struggled until the end, but I kept holding her still, patting her as her movements finally slowed. The veterinarian said that it would be like going to sleep, but her eyes were open. That's not the story though. The thing is that I'm half expecting her to come back. I don't believe in ghosts or a life after death, but I still expect her to show up one day as I walk up the hill to my parents' house. I'm not sure if I'm looking forward to it or dreading it - I miss her, but I also killed her and I'm a little worried that if she were to come back she might not forgiven me. But I still say hello to her now and then in the mornings and evenings when I see the candle on her grave. Perhaps I'll stop feeling like she's present once the summer comes and a candle doesn't shine as brightly any more. Sometimes I even imagine I see her. Today, I was convinced that I saw her standing under the tree with the bird feeder and was just about to point her out to my dad when I realised that she is dead and that it was probably just my imagination. Other days I have seen a shadow meeting me as I got home from work: never close enough to work out what it, just a movement in the darkness. Her youngest son has changed his behaviour as well. He didn't use to come out to say hello as I got home, but about a week ago he came to meet her just like she used to; rolling around happily in front of my feet just like she used to. Maybe there is a rational explanation. Maybe there isn't. Maybe I should re-evaluate my conviction that ghosts do not exist. I just wish I knew if she has forgiven me.
