What’s your problem with Spy Hard? It follows the same Leslie Nielsen formula as Wrongfully Accused.

Fenstersturz, actually.

Ok, thanks. I studied linguistics for another language years ago, (a language without any ‘th’), so it was a guess. Still no answer of what it is or why it’s used.

Unrelated, but how and why do you use the thorn (or something else?) as th-replacement?

“Grumbern” is the same in parts of Frankonia.

Weird. Never thought it to be real. In Warhammer 40k, only a populace of a specific planet has those purple eyes. Kinda neat to know that this might have been a super-specific random event (first human settlers of that planet having purple eyes).

Kommt da nicht alljährlich die Übertragung von Rock am Ring, Summerbreeze und so, oder macht das mittlerweile ein anderer Sender?

(Electric) kettle would be the “right” word for Wasserkocher.

Brits and their weird non-compound-words.

Since they shut out Linux players last week. Taking away access to things someone bought, used and can’t use anymore because of something the supplier did could be interpreted as theft.

It syncs with fddb.

The article being from the US, after I read that that woman shoved the bikes to the ground, I was mentally prepared to read that she got shot.

Wildest thing is that the cyclists were on public ground and she doesn’t want them there. Why do you care, lady? Why would someone else stop to berate the cyclists as well? Were they in an ani-cycling cult town?

Ok, thanks for the update. I’m neither a car guy nor a native speaker.

Older (pre 2000) diesel cars needed a few seconds, sometimes a minute to “warm-up” the starter. You had to turn the ignition half way before you actually start the car. That’s the only “warming up” a car might need to function (normal circumstances).

Heard what?

Both, kinda. His point was (if O recall correctly) to promote a faster light rail track from Munich central station to the FJS Airport, also in Munich. The main benefit would be that you “start your flight on the train” because the transfer is seamless (in theory).

Somewhat related: every football field indicates a settlement. That map makes me kinda sad.

I’m a recreational cyclist and live in central europe. Breathtaking views of nature (cycling along the Scottish north coast and such) can’t be had with a football field and/or settlement every few kilometres.

Not disagreeing with you, just want to add my flavour of “the image is stupid”.

Also, unless it’s the first move of the game, you need a word on the board to add your own with a shared letter.

Wasn’t that Reagan? I’m not in the US, so please take this as a genuine question. So far, I’ve heard nothing as bad about Clinton regarding economics.

The Wikipedia article linked on top states that most margarine has moved to lower trans-fats since the turn of the century. It’s probably at least as healthy as butter, if not moreso.
