Does "eerga ylduorp" mean strongly disagree?

What does the following mean?

"I am heavy on the wire"

i think so. it's "proudly agree" spelled backwards in case you hadn't noticed

What does the following mean?

"I am heavy on the wire"

i have no idea. i picked the middle choice hoping it wouldn't affect the result very much.

Italians are spicy meatballs? If so, you haven't met Croats. We're even spicier and meatball-ier.

Sorry, I just cut and paste and didn't read my own post so I wasn't aware of how it was formatted. I have edited it so it reads better now.

schwer auf Draht sein
to be heavy on wire
meaning: to react very fast

By the way, schwer means heavy, auf means on, draht means wire, and sein means is.

I got a tie between Danish and Belgian at 88% a piece... the next highest was German/Turkish/Molvanian(?)/French at fifty percent.

Go figure that one out

Swiss, but is that because I said all cheese should half holes?:rolleyes:

I had to go to a tie-breaker question...apparently my preference for french fries over food coloring makes me more Belgian than Danish. :rolleyes:

I scored "as a Irish". This thing is stupid.
 
  • #38
I scored as Irish, and that's the nationality of my father's father's side of the family - 4th generation immigrant. However, his mother's side of the family was German (descended from a Hessian) with American Indian and Scottish, and my mother's side of the family is French/Indian.

Irish=100%
Italian=100%
Belgian=75%
German=75%
French=50%

Peculiar, but not terribly off. I'm highland Scot, lowland Scot, Irish, English, Spanish and a touch of African. What the hell is a 'Molvanian'? :confused:

I always thought that Australia was invented by the English as satire.
