AI Thread Summary
The discussion centers on the splitting of larger threads to alleviate server load, with a focus on the continuation of a previous thread. Participants engage in light-hearted banter, celebrating a trivia quiz and discussing various topics, including creativity, humor, and personal anecdotes. One member shares a humorous proposal joke involving a "trivial ring," leading to a deeper conversation about mathematical concepts and the nature of "nothing." The conversation shifts to personal experiences, including frustrations with the medical system following a wisdom tooth extraction, highlighting issues with prescription management and insurance complications. Members express their opinions on dental practices, particularly the necessity of wisdom tooth removal, with some viewing it as a financial racket unless there are complications. Overall, the thread reflects a mix of humor, personal stories, and commentary on broader societal issues, maintaining a casual and engaging tone throughout.

Actually it should be "W moim ogródecku" - which translates to "In my garden" (and technically is incorrect in Polish, correct in dialects).

Rokiczanka is just name of the band.

I really find this interesting. Thank you very much for sharing. It's a capitalist country, such a reaction was to be expected. That was capitalism for her.

(I really need that word softener, I'm probably sounding rude here. I'm trying really hard to be kind and real, but I can't deliver a tone of voice here).

A band? It's a song then? Nice.

No, that's not rude to my ears.

Maybe she was hiding that she was ticked off that she didn't think of capitalizing on her idea herself :biggrin:!

Thanks for posting this song in the "Best Songs Ever" thread. That's how I knew of it. And thanks for the correct spelling as I corrected the spelling of my mp3 version of it.

Another Polish song I like the you posted is Kiedy Byłem Małym Chłopcem - Breakout.

Edit by Borek: added these łs for you :wink:

I once made a soup
It is now famous

Today, I made a soup

Only the namesake of Tutayev

as I made

Gesundheit!

:biggrin:

For those that don't speak Russian, hochy is pronounced ho-chew.
For those that don't sneeze in English, we pronounce it ah-chew.
For those that don't speak German, gesundheit literally means healthfulness, and is the traditional response to someone sneezing.

ps. All pronunciations and translations are approximate.

I just found the answer to a question that's puzzled me for a long time. There is a road near the center of the city where I live called "Bold Lane". Why? Was there a Mr Bold who lived there or something.

It turns out that on really old maps it's called Bolt Lane. And it's close to other streets named after the old trades like Irongate and Sadlergate. So I guess it's where the arrow-makers used to hang out.

And that also might explain why there is a side-street off it called Robin Hood Yard!

There were a couple of other old street names that have vanished in these politically correct times: Groper Lane and Cuckold Lane. No problem guessing what went on there. :smile: But a side street next to the cathedral is still officially called Amen Alley.

You should have left it alone.

I will never drink again...never...never you hear?

Never. Never today. Or at least least never today till 6 p.m. Been there.

I don't drink. My father never drank in front of me. In fact, I don't even remember him drinking at all (not even hidden). Maybe that's why I find no interest in drinks (except water). My mother says that before I was born he drank like any other person, but after that he stopped.

In other news:

The other day I was walking across the street and two infant cats were playing. Their movements while playing were incredibly fast and one of them pushed the other to the center of the street. In that very same instant a car came, he got positioned below it and got hit. The one who pushed the victim got scared by the impact sound and quickly retreated before been crushed by the rear tire. He focused his eyes wide open to look for his friend and so did I. However, I could find no traces of the other cat. Neither could his friend.

I wonder what happened to the one who got hit. It's like it sort of disappeared forever. Poof. On the street I could find no traces of blood, hair, or anything.

So the whole 3.78541178 liters of ice cream ate you? Or are you saying 231 cubic inches of liquid ice cream ate you?

In soviet dkotschessaa's house ice cream eats you.

Wait, I have another one... Nah, it's not funny, forget it.

I thought most of the "women drivers" jokes weren't real, but now I'm not so sure. Today I was stuck for 5 or 10 minutes behind somebody driving at about 20 mph in a 50 speed limit. She was certainly making full use of the mirror - to see what she was doing while combing her hair.

OK now that's twice you've posted songs by Chris Rea, neither of which I've heard in maybe two decades!

I'm going to Texas...they've got big long roads down there...

In reality, I've been to Texas, I have no plans to go back. But I love that song!

I drove thru once, back in the 70's.
Never saw anything that made me want to stop.
My sister lives there.

Playing with Nerf swords before school is >>> watching Sponge Bob Sauare Pants

"Now remember, every swordsman is a mathematician."

Backstory: I do not enjoy hearing Sponge Bob in the morning, so I played swords with my roomate's son before school.

Back from vacation.

Notes to parents of small children:
When your infant is on the beach all day, it will get sunburned and scream in pain all night.
If your child does not understand basic hygene, do not let them run unattended in a buffet. It is not cool to see your little princess stick her hands directly in the food or have your little boy climb on a counter and cough directly into a strangers' food.

Next year we will definitely go somewhere that is adults-only.

Cat's don't have masters. They have servants.

good god, its 1am and some dude with his brain full of hallucinogens just tried to break into our house. Good thing the police showed up 2 min after I ringed them. Otherwise my mother's kitchen knives would be ruined.
