Computer game characters or software pirates?

Characters :)
I feel that pirates are distinctly underused in games...

Funnily enough, there are pirates in Age of Wonders
which is my favourite game EVAR!

Not sure how I could add pirates to Populous though...

I still love Monkey Island 3 :)
... A pirate I was meant to be, trim the sails and roam the sea ...

Not sure what my favourite game EVAR is though. This will require more thought.

I only made my list of favourite games ever somer 10 years after I first started playing games.
And the one that scored top was a 5 year old game (FYI it was Boulder Dash).

I've played so many, especially since we got the PS3
but I think currently that honour must go to this.

Listening to Norwegian being played over a tannoy while in a semi-hungover state does sound a bit fucked up too.

Haha!
Can't say I've ever been subjected to that!

How are we?

Bored; flatmate's at work and nothing much is going on here.

Never good
My housemate has gone out for a 'walk' with one of his ladyfriends, so I'm sat being lonely with beer.

My life is awesome!
(, Mon 17 Aug 2009, 20:08, Reply)
He has more than one ladyfriend?
I'm here with music and contemplating eating something, since I haven't had dinner yet, but I have no idea what time flatmate is returning...

Several
One of them he stole off me, which I'm none too happy about. But I can't say anything because I've (unintentionally) done it to him before.

Ah well, I'll get her another time!

Mine's awsome too
Am also going out on plenty of walks with my walking group. If I meet someone interesting there, my walking may even lead to a 'walk'.

Evening Lampito
For some reason, playing something backwards makes me think everyone's speaking Norwegian.

Sped up/slowed down is also awesome.
But this is even better.

I THINK it's Icelandic. Cause that's where it's filmed...

Arrrgh matey!
That reminds me - go back to youtube and search for "sit and fart in the duck". You will not be disappointed!

I saw that yesterday.
Made me laugh like a drain!

Isn't it awesome?
I nearly pissed myself laughing the first time I saw it, and similarly this!

That's brilliant!

Laughing like a mong now!

This is my current favourite

I'm laughing like a mong at this one and think I might link it on Facebook

Unfortunately for me
I know enough Dutch to understand the true meaning so it kind of spoils it for me :'-(
(, Mon 17 Aug 2009, 20:31, Reply)
I know about three words of Dutch
but I can get the gist because I speak German.
(, Mon 17 Aug 2009, 20:35, Reply)
I also learned German at school for a while
but whenever I'm in Germany, I still like to pretend I'm speaking German when in fact I'm probably just speaking Dutch with a German accent.

Are you a Dutch type, good sir?

(, Mon 17 Aug 2009, 21:00, Reply)
I'm English
but have had plenty of immersion in that language.
(, Mon 17 Aug 2009, 21:10, Reply)
Aha. I had wondered :)
My Dutch is "sorry" "hello" "kind regards" "refund" "the" "train" "delay" "fuckhead" and "best".

And don't forget klootzak

Does Eurostar still use Dutch?
Back when it terminated at Waterloo, the signs were translated into Dutch too, but now, they're only in English and French.
(, Mon 17 Aug 2009, 21:55, Reply)
We still have menus in Dutch and still issue timetables in Dutch
and occasionally get letters in Dutch. Thing is with SPI, we're very limited in the signage we can have, since the station's owned by English Heritage, so that may explain the lack of Dutch.

Also, we've changed security contractors of late so you may not have to empty your pockets now...
(, Mon 17 Aug 2009, 22:00, Reply)
Woeiha!
That should also mean there's no longer a massive check-in time.

For some reason, I find being on a Eurostar train isolates me more from my surroundings than any other train.

The refurb is coming
... soonish ... so that may well change it. Am looking forward to having a corner of the carriage, I must say!
(, Mon 17 Aug 2009, 22:14, Reply)
I meant that I don't really feel like I'm going through my surroundings.
Maybe it's because the train goes too fast to properly take it in, or maybe it's just that it skips the built-up areas.
