FP: Should 31 be the new 51 y/n

That's Swedish, and after being called out for calling Ireland part of the 'British Isles' I'm really not in a mood to be confused with those ässhöles. Jüst stöp it!

if denmark is so great, why does Dane (almost) rhyme with LAME

Had no idea 'croonchy' was a real word. ILX teaches me new things every day!

Because those who invented English were racist.

(cue deej: 'Danish is not a race!')

Lol, didn't you know that? Yeah, it's on the 'British literature is shit' thread, which again was prompted by a remark of mine on the 'British cinema is shit' thread, and at that point I'd probably shat enough on, um, 'the wet and foggy isles west of glorious Jutland', was that what we ended up agreeing to?

what is our consensus on the worst nationality?

Because those who invented English were racist.

Isn't Jutland in Denmark anyway?

frankly i thought we should never have left europe, i was agin it

xp american

american on the internet

Sorry, Denmark is in Jutland rather.

'the wet and foggy isles west of glorious Jutland'

def voting for this poll option, just rolls right off the tongue

Or Denmark is Jutland? Expect some of it's in Germany. I think.

jutland is part of denmark

Is Denmark part of Germany

i lived in copenhagen for a few months so i think i know more about denmark than anyone else on ilx. ask me anything.

denmark is in fact part of germany

denmark is the northern six counties of germany

jeez fuckin yanks

what is our consensus on the worst nationality?

Yeah, sorry but it's definitely American. And we could make a poll about it, but it would be ruined by the Americans.

Because they ruin everything.

I suppose it's called Jutland because it juts out. Has to be. Frætheræk?

excuse me while I ruin æverything

fair, although america has produced a whole lot of globally beloved music over the past century xp

That's what they used to say about Germany.

There’s no way Americans are worse than British Islanders

obama era will be known in time as weimarica iml

lads lads take it to the disgusting savages thræd

Isn't a Denmark a kind of money?

(Internet Americans are definitely the worst nationality, I concur.)

You’re thinking of weregeld

Frætheræk - I think that's how they pronounce it in most of Scotland tbh.

I suppose it's called Jutland because it juts out. Has to be. Frætheræk?

It's because it's the land of the 'judes' or 'juthes' or 'iuthær' as it was spelled in the middle ages.

I was born in Jutland as well, and, true story, I used to think 'Hey Jude' was about people like me.

Frederik, check your email.

lol

lol what

Someone's done for Fred! Infamy!

i really liked jutland when i visited fwiw. aarhus was a fun city and the countryside was pretty surreal in terms of just how many acres of snow there was in all directions

want a fræth in the morning, trϵϵsh in the evening
just like meeee

Be careful what you wish for (FPs tlg for the fifteenth time this hour).

i can think of at least one personal interaction i've had on ILX during the past week that would have played out very differently - for better or worse - if we had a cooling-off mechanism like this

That or fitting all users with some sort of genital-shocking contraption would really do wonders for this place, I feel.

keep your weird sexual fantasies to yrself please

it gets turned off if you get tok many FPs

Good to see that someone gets me.

Someones, I should say.

How many ppl is tlg

i contain multitudes

this thread is interesting because when I flag posts it is because I think the post itself is objectionable, contains objectionable language, etc., and then the expectation is that the individual post is deleted but the poster is not advanced up some kind of fifty-strikes-you're-out-no-questions-asked scale.

this seems very...unintuitive. especially since the flag post screen tells you are flagging the *post* for attention of the moderators
