Hey y'all

[Maiken]

So, after being here for a couple of months and having posted a little I thought it was time to say hi to all of you Better late than never, right?

I'm a math-loving, book-reading, 21 year old girl. I spend most of my time in my room with my nose in a book or in front of my computer. At work I'm the weirdo sitting all alone at lunch break reading. (I swear the next time somebody comes up to me and says "OMG, you're reading a book!! And it's in English!! OMG!!" I will stab myself in the face.) Until recently I thought that there was something really wrong with me, then I found you guys and realized that there is in fact people just like me. Well, maybe not just like me, but you get the point

So hi everybody

 

[[SS].Invictus]

I'm a math-loving, book-reading, 21 year old girl.

N.e.v.e.r reveal your gender in here. >.>

Used to be a math-loving, book-reading type until I become too-into-my-self.

I am actually jealous of individuals who still can/have the will to read books.

*waves back*.

 

[Crazythinker1]

Don't stab yourself, stab them in the face! Or if you ain't into the whole blood and screaming and potential lawsuit thing, you could just roll your eyes and whack them upside the head with the book. Couple of days of that and they will leave you alone.

BTW. Welcome to the party!!!!!!

 

[Hawkeye]

Welcome to the party of antisocial-social people

Ah yes, here's the truth: THERE'S SOMETHING WRONG WITH ALL OF US. I actually had an INTPforum related dream two nights ago that was brilliantly accurate (and pretty funny). Basically, we were all in rehab. Seems fitting.

 

[Melkor]

UGHHHHHHHHH.

YOU SAID Y'ALL!

AWAY FILTH! AWAY!


For those in need of elocution lessons and seeking redemption, Melkor provides this small lesson:

The plural of 'you', is not in fact, as some degenerates suggest 'y'all' , rather, 'y'all' is a warcry used by Celtic warriors to declare their lack of skill and intelligence and thus, is often used as a plea of speedy death to the one who speaks it.

Instead when addressing a group of people, one should say one of the following:

'Yez'
'Youse'
'Yousens'

In example,

'OI! YOUSENS! Pádraig just got het' by a peller!'

or
'Here! Yez had better hurry afore the tramp knacks yer' windy's in, swear te' God!'



Ahem, least where I come from.

 

[Crazythinker1]

MELKOR!!!!! YOU SAD SACK OF EXCERMENT.

You have insulted my language AND the people of the deep south. For this you will have to be punished severely, but first, a lesson:

Y'all is merely a contraction of you all and is meant to convey a sense of community and belonging. Now, if I'm not mistaken, that is what this forum is, a community of like minded people who now because of this place feel less alone, knowing that there are others like them.

Thus endeth the sermon

How would you like your punishment? Whippings or having the buzzards feed upon your rotten flesh?

 

[Melkor]

In response to your garbage talking, I can say only this,

Improper speech does nothing for community togetherness, and community togetherness is overrated anyway.

Also, the deep south is swine-land.

Meh. True. except for the part about the south being swine-land. Not true.

Ha ha, well it's too late now, but on the inside I'm actually a 40 year old man or at least that's what I'm told...

Don't stab yourself, stab them in the face! Or if you ain't into the whole blood and screaming and potential lawsuit thing, you could just roll your eyes and whack them upside the head with the book. Couple of days of that and they will leave you alone.

BTW. Welcome to the party!!!!!!

Ohh, that's sounds awesome (The book whacking thing, I'm not so fond of other people's blood).

UGHHHHHHHHH.

YOU SAID Y'ALL!

AWAY FILTH! AWAY!

I love you too

If you can survive Melkor you'll be fine.

I felt strange reading Hamlet on my phone at school today

On your phone? Hamlet? Weird.

 

[Toad]

Hey sexy!

 

[kantor1003]

My first official reply to an introit thread. I'd better make it good. Hmm. Maybe go for the simple, but effective "hello"? Or maybe the more nonchalant "hey"? Or something more exotic, "ciao!"?
I'll let you take your pick. Hopefully, some of the greetings will be satisfactory.
Oh, I am 21 as well. Listing commonalities is probably a good way to connect to a stranger :P
Nah, I think I'll take the more outwardly/party type greeting:
zup! new chicks in tha house! We1c0mE!

 

[loveofreason]

Hello Maiken... has your moth suffered a terrible death? Did it squirm? Flutter?

I think I've made myself a shade more grey.... Maybe blanch. Maybe my wings feel a little too starched....

:/

Umm... tell me. Can you fly?

 

[Cognisant]

Ha ha, well it's too late now, but on the inside I'm actually a 40 year old man or at least that's what I'm told...

By a 40 year old man who wants to be inside you?

I think I'll be okay

Hello is just fine
(btw: I love your hair, random, but I thought I'd tell you anyway.)

Umm... tell me. Can you fly?

Nope, would be awesome though...

By a 40 year old man who wants to be inside you?

Uhm, what??

No, by my friends who think I'm old because I know words they have never heard of and that I'm a man because I prefer to go to the bathroom on my own and I don't take 45min because I have to redo my make up...

 

[Crazythinker1]

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAH!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

[fnb]

haha... boy have I been there! *gasp* the thought of going to the bathroom alone! lol

Felt an immediate connection based on the title alone...and then read that Maiken is located in Denmark.
Guess it is relative that all geographies would have a deep south.

Damn right!!!! It's a state of mind

 

[Jah]

Denmark can hardly be referred to as Deep-south.
Y'all sounds bad, regardless of whether it is an accepted phrase in the dictionary.

Deep south is to me just a bad excuse for poor grammar and missing thumbs.
The deep south, where "Dey don't take kindly to your kind around here" kinda.

Hi, Maiken.
Denmark's a nice place for bicycling.
Random fact no.2; Most Norwegians visiting Denmark should not be bicycling.

Relatively speaking, Denmark is kind of "Deep-South" compared to the location of Norway. Maiken, if you lived in the north of Norway, you'd be referring to southern Norwegians as "Southerners" or even "Mexicans"........

And welcome.

By the way, your butterfly reminds me of that horrid arthropod collection I have to do for an assignment......nothing personal, but I have to kill insects deliberately, for the sake of passing a subject....urgh......must have been a Buddhist in my previous life, obviously a naughty one..........

Jah, I have always wanted to bicycle through Denmark. Would you please mind explaining why most Norwegians visiting Denmark should not be bicycling? Any personal experiences underlying this? Just curious

 

[Jah]

Most Norwegians in Denmark would be (and indeed tend to be) drunk as skunks due to the price of alcohol being about a tenth of what it is in Norway. (alcohol in Norway is taxed through the roof compared to most other nations, leading Norwegian tourists to be the least probable designated drivers)
I'm talking in general of course.

And yes, relatively speaking most people in the world are Southerners to me due to me being born north of the arctic circle, around 70 degrees north.

But then again, I wouldn't consider Maiken a qualified "Deep-south" person since she seems to have intelligence that goes beyond fascinating stories like "What you reading for?" and would probably have been asked that question herself, had she been in Bill's shoes. (ignore this if you're not familiar with Bill Hicks)

 

[Cavallier]

This whole Deep South=Deliverance thing is crap. I expect it from the Melkorling. He doesn't know better.

But you people haven't earned my respect or even tempered disregard yet.

 

[Jah]

Then what IS the Deep South ? And what is meant by it ?

 

[Anthile]

Hello.

Yes, in general, Norwegians tend to behave like drunk skunks at holidays overseas. Which is why I always took a step away from that behaviour as it embarrassed and irritated me greatly (I'm Norwegian). Sadly, most of my friends at that time were more into the drunk-skunk, buying cheap meat- thing than bicycling (funny that...).

My ideal scenario would have been bicycling with friends in Denmark, whilst sampling the alcoholic delights within the framework of culinary interest and moderation (that sound like a lot of prissy wank, but it is true, I'm a prissy wanker).

And I'm not that familiar with Mr Hicks, unfortunately. Didn't he die?

I have been to your part of Norway, Jah. The area is absolutely stunning. If I ever go back, I would like to get a pack of Huskies and live like an eccentric hermit somewhere above the Arctic Circle. Uttering profanities at all the Southerners would be part of that existence, of course.

And finally I would go non-drunk-skunk bicycling in Denmark, to get a break from all my swearing and cursing at the Southerners of the world.

YouTube- Bill Hicks- What your reading for?

Sophistication and self-control seems to be laughed at by the "normals" yet some of us realize that the ones chasing cars and shouting obscene things to women, drinking beer and watching football are among the most insecure people, trying to cover up their insecurities by being "normal".
(Its a reference to the national image of "man", Pondus, which seems to me to be a really frightened person, homophobic and without any real intellectual depth.)

I to would like to take a trip through denmark and the rest of Europe with more civil, refined people. (Which I probably will do in not too long.)


ps. I'm becoming increasingly self-aware as this topic is becoming less and less associated with Maiken, who is the topic, and barely clings on to the subject by mentioning Denmark.

Uhm....haha....yes.....

*slaps wrist*

......sorry Maiken, you have not been forgotten. You like bicycling? When you're not reading?

Jah: Thanks for the video, the guy is quite interesting. I'll check him out further. I also like Dylan Moran (random.....):

[Maiken]

People seem to be really upset by the "y'all", I'm terribly sorry... ...okay, I'm not really sorry... But I promise to never use it again... (Heh, you can't see that I'm wearing a shirt saying "Oh sheesh, y'all. 'Twas a dream.")

Relatively speaking, Denmark is kind of "Deep-South" compared to the location of Norway. Maiken, if you lived in the north of Norway, you'd be referring to southern Norwegians as "Southerners" or even "Mexicans"........

Haha, I'm actually from the south of Denmark South Jutland to be exact. We are stupid farmers who talk funny according to the rest of Denmark.

We go to Germany to buy alcohol and beer even cheaper

Hello.

LOVE this

Uhm....haha....yes.....

*slaps wrist*

......sorry Maiken, you have not been forgotten. You like bicycling? When you're not reading?

It's okay... And yes, actually I do like bicycling. I don't go on any major trips or anything like that but it's a nice way to get outside...

I see quite a correlation between gender and posts. Girls>Guys welcome.

Anyway, Welcome (the last girl who posted here was LaudaGirl. She got about the same number of posts in her thread as you did.)

Nice The sad thing is that it's true. If you read books for fun a lot of people look at you like you're insane. I know people who say "I've never read a book in my life!" and they say it with pride.

(Yes, I know, I'm replying to posts randomly.)

My god, I can relate to that perfectly. It's funny how they strut out their chest and say they hate reading with pride while turning to their other friend and tell him that he's smarter than him. So ridiculous.

I reckon the pride is just another mask for embarrassement. In our modern society, reading books=intelligence.

Hence, if you do not read books, you are not intelligent.

These people have just bought into that myth, and need to project pride in order to preserve integrity. It's a farce, really.

Keep bicycling. It's the only thing that will keep you sane.

Nevermind. I'm in my guru-mode.
