    Germany is missing on the map - its territory has been taken over by The Netherlands, Denmark, Poland, France, and the Czech Republic. The German cities have also been given Dutch, Danish, Polish, French and Czech names.

    This must be a WW II possibility map or something since Germany's gone. I guess he's happy because the Netherlands are bigger, taking over the NW part of Germany.

    :D

    I like the reactions even better. I would have understood anyone not from Europe who didn't get it.
    I admit the Netherlands have an ongoing rivalry with Germany, and it probably stems from WOII. It was gritty in the 90s but imo it's been rather friendly since the last decade. Honestly, The Netherlands are nowhere without Germany, yet we still want to beat them at anything, especially football (or "soccer", for weird people).

    Monty is spot on and BTA is gaining some Influence Power, for seeing the difference. Not because he says (only) The Netherlands are bigger. Frankly, I love Ze Germans. They're brothers to me, in some way. And totally different to Les French.

    Some day I'd like to break down your English, MoN. I notice that you and even Tal commonly say things like "since the last decade" when what you probably mean is "over (the course of) the last decade" ... kind of interesting, even though I'm not actually a language guy. :)

    I have to confess, I tend to look for the 'instant funny' rather than the clever one!

    That's cool, Gaear! I'm sure I'd learn a lot from it. (As for the use of "since"... A common mistake here, I suppose, falling under the False Friends category)

    Huh... good tip Gaear. I have good language skills, but I never thought about that particular phrase until you brought it up. Also another funny one is when people say they are going to "unthaw" something. As in "I'm going to unthaw those vegetables so I can cook them."

    Wouldn't 'unthawing' them just mean freezing them? :lol: I always say defrost

    So, Nike recently released a T-shirt for fans of the NFL club Carolina Panthers, which is based in North Carolina.

    But they soon pulled the T-shirt from the market.

    I tried to see if this pic was posted before but a lot of images weren't viewable, so I'm gonna post it anyway. Oh, and it's NSFW(ish) btw

    I’m currently playing Fallout 3. I play in 1st person view, but by mistake switched to 3rd person. As proof that I am not doing a great job of role-playing this game, I present to you my outfit:

    [​IMG]

    I am wearing stealth armour and a power helmet; for a touch of flair, I have completed the ensemble with the Shady Hat. To defeat enemies, my strategy is to sneak up on them, then come out of hiding, and have them die from laughing so hard at my get-up. :D
