1) Apparently, there are people with good taste out there.
2) Not all vegetarians are evil.
3) The French aren't as bad as you'd think.
4) I can get music news without reading the NME (actually, I knew this one already, but now I get better news).
5) Mclusky are a fine band.
6) Never trust a Canadian with a Greek name.

I have this nice boogie board to sell you. We'll do it in escrow. You pay shipping/duties. Great deal. I throw in free souvlaki.

I've learned I may be drafted unless I develop ADHD and a healthy addiction to Ritalin.

I improved my English. Now I know some very cool expressions like :
- It was ace
- You're cooking with gas
- This cracked me up
etc.
I keep feeling like people are just looking at screens and web sites all the time, but do they ever do anything? Or go out and say anything to anyone? I'm not so sure anymore. |

that's interesting. i don't think we're affected as much over here (in the uk), as we tend to pick up american sayings/words/phrases pretty quick anyway, through tv and film... but i guess it doesn't work so well the other way around?

I learned that :
1) Message boards can be interesting (this is the first forum i actually follow regularly)
2) Greeks (even with Canadian citizenship) are cooler than i thought
3) Bittorent is really cool
4) Having more than a 1000 posts is not only a thing to admit without shame but something to be proud about

1. Strawberries are capable of becoming angry.
2. Everyone gets accused of being The Swimmer at some point.
3. Frank Black actually posts to his own forum occasionally. (Who would have guessed?)

This is a relief. I hadn't been around long enough to know this when it happened to me. How many people has he actually been? |

YES!!! Get in!!! I have finally managed to teach somebody something!!!
I have learned that there is a really cool club in Manchester that I didn't even know about.

That the French/Swedish/Spanish/Dutch etc put the rest of us to shame with their grasp of another language.
Of some really cool new music/films/books/websites etc.
That it's possible for a website to play quite a large part in your day to day life. God I've turned sad!!!

I learned that there's a secret forum in which people can chat with Frank Black. What I haven't learned is how to access it.

I've learnt that Frank uses a certain type of bait. We discussed it on the secret forum - unfortunately, I'm duty bound not to reveal it.

Sorry, we can't answer that.
It is not wise to speak of him directly.
