Did John Locke Die?

I wouldn't count on it. Unless you mean the original [wiki]John Locke[/wiki], in which case, I am very sorry, he has passed.

I think spelling people's names is more important than being able to use commas properly,

I disagree.

 

[Rossiya]

I disagree.

Seriously?

 

[Catharsis]

Which of these is more annoying?

"Yes, Rossia, I disagree; furthermore, I find your pink signature to be most disturbing."

"Yes Rossiya I, disagree furthermore. I find, your pink signature to be, most disturbing."

I vote for the second one.

That would not be fair for sluts;for that they would have no place to live anywhere.

 

[Rossiya]

^^ Do sluts really have boyfriends as such?

Spoiler :

I Hate That SecuGuy.

Coming in with his "I'm a big and powerful man" and telling me off like that. So what if it's merely 1 AM in the morning and I'm browsing at the faculty. Not like I'm alone. No other guards (and I've met a few) have ever been so rude, obnoxious, and WTFH else. If I were a little less patient I would be vandalising something of his right this moment. !@#$%^&*!@#$%IO*&^%$#!

Back to your regular OT threads.

I had to promise my psychiatrist not to commit suicide tonight.

Yeah, i'm suicidal.

 

[Eran of Arcadia]

Hang in there, hope you will be okay . . .

 

[PlutonianEmpire]

Hang in there, hope you will be okay . . .

I won't. My mother is forcing me to work and get a job against my will, not to mention i've seem to developed a hatred of the female sex over the past year (bad experiences ).

They are all phycos mate, don't stress about that one!

What annoys me greatly is when people pretend to speak French by doing word-for-word translations of English expressions.
So the following expressions mean NOTHING in French:
"laissez les bons temps rouler". Let the good times roll sounds catchy, but laissez les bons temps rouler sounds completely stupid. It's incorrect on so many levels I don't even know where to start. So just because you're in New Orleans doesn't mean you'll sound cool by uttering sentences a drunk Frenchman wouldn't even recognize.
"Fermez la bouche". Oh no. Please no. If you're trying French insults, at least make sure you get them right, because nothing is more pathetically funny than an English-speaking tourist thinking he's going to smack some French down with "Fermez la bouche", only to realize that far from looking at him dumbstruck, everybody around him is politely trying to suppress laughs.
"Vive le France!" (not that I expect that to be said a lot )Weird. Maybe pictures will help.
This is "le France":

This is "la France":

So unless you're really fanatical about a 50+-year-old boat that was bought by Norway and I believe is now rotting in a forgotten port, please, "Vive la France"?

 

[Rossiya]

This is "la France":

Only after you STOLE Savoia and Corsica off of Italy.

 

[Veritass]

This is "la France":

It would help if "le", "la", and "les" were actually pronounced differently in French.

They sound quite different, more different than other stuff does in fwosseh.

 

[Masquerouge]

And here I was, thinking France never won a battle

It would help if "le", "la", and "les" were actually pronounced differently in French.

They are, but of course you knew that
Unless you're unable to differentiate the sounds in bum, bag and bed, you shouln't have any issues with le, la and les
