Yeah, I habitually wake up at 4:30 here, and I still have my jet lag...

What we don't do for the sake of Allah. Ahum.

Maz, the Swedish one is seriously weird. The Russian one is hilariously bad.
But Eurovision sucked for as long as I can remember. Germany had one good guy when TV Total did a "casting show" for it.

Hard Rock Hallelujah!

I remember there was some fuss back then that Greece wanted to sue Finland for that.

Technically, but they also sleep 16 hours a day. So naturally they do sleep some during the daylight hours.

/r/WTF


Edit: Also, I <3 De Bierkoning. I got a glass from Anderson Valley for free for being a good customer even though I've only been there a handful of times, to be honest I was kind of surprised the shop attendant even recognized me.

Also, I scored Alesmith Speedway Stout, Lagunitas Hop Stoopid, Green Flash West Coast IPA, 3 Fonteinen Oude Kriek, Brouwerij 'T IJ Speciale Vlo and their new IPA (Which has a totally badass label -NSFW-)

Yeah, at least I can bribe the cop to ticket them

I saw a lizard in the kitchen last night. Also, a squirrel like thing outside.

I'm not sure that's better.

Crap, I need to not put on a good movie before bed time. I thought The Grey would just be about some dudes trying to survive wolves in the middle of something cold, but unexpectedly the movie digs right into some heavy stuff about coming to terms with one's own impending death. Let me just say that Liam Neeson is a god.

Go watch it if you're into people getting messed up by wolves and reflections on life and death. Warning, though, the movie is brutal when it comes to the death scenes. Not so much the gore (there is some, but not a lot), but more the whole emotional thing that goes on when a person dies. It'll probably make you sad.

Edit: Sweden won the Eurovision Song Contest and Russia got second place. That's it, I want off this planet.

Danish law is a bit retarded when it comes to so-called "soft pedestrians" (cyclists/pedestrians). §101 of our traffic law (highway code?) basically puts the blame on the motorist, unless he can be proven innocent. The pedestrian would have to do something pretty stupid to get the full blame, though, which means the driver is screwed in any case.

If you cross a red light and get hit by a cab here, you'd likely die, but you'd also likely win a lawsuit due to walking in a marked pedestrian area (albeit walking it illegally) and the driver not paying attention to the surroundings.

Law is weird.

I accidentally Bengali'd my attendant's name. As in, it has a j in it, but Bengalis mix up j and z (so does half the subcontinent, it's interesting when people talk about the zoo), and I know a Bengali by that name with z in it, so I said it like that.

Also, I have termites or something. I also have jungle expedition grade mosquito spray, that seems to kill them dead.

I had 2 conversations! One last night, it went something like this:

Guy with huge gun in the foyer, no one who speaks English to explain what is going on.
Kali: آپ یہاں کام کے لئے ہیں؟ | Are you working here?
Guy: uh-huh. nod
Kali: اچھا | good

The other one was with one of the cleaners. He had one of these, which we have in Scotland and it's way better than the brooms you get in the West. I wanted to explain to him that we got it from Bangladesh, so I said:
بنگلادیش سے لاتی ہیں . | They brought it from Bangladesh.
And then he was like "Ooooh, export!"



Soooo happy.

Lightweight!

Alcoholic!

You poor thing.
