Cancer Posted July 24, 2019 Report Share Posted July 24, 2019 The Scandinavians themselves have something to say about that Duke Bushido, Lord Liaden, L. Marcus and 1 other 1 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lord Liaden Posted July 25, 2019 Report Share Posted July 25, 2019 The late great Victor Borge used to joke that he had a lot of trouble learning to pronounce "th" in English, because it required him to stick his tongue out. "Denmark is a cold country, and we don't stick anything out unless we're sure we can pull it back in again." L. Marcus and Pariah 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
L. Marcus Posted July 25, 2019 Report Share Posted July 25, 2019 ... Denmark is positively balmy year round. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lord Liaden Posted July 25, 2019 Report Share Posted July 25, 2019 ... There's more than one definition of "balmy" for which that might be true. Matt the Bruins and Duke Bushido 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would be surprised if the number of people killed by leopards is greater than the number of leopards killed by people. Lucius Alexander I know of no palindromedaries killed by leopards. Or vice versa. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lord Liaden Posted July 26, 2019 Report Share Posted July 26, 2019 Hey, give me a high-powered rifle and a bunch of armed guides watching my back... nope, still gonna be scared. Whatever the stats, the operative words weren't "killed by," they were "afraid of."

Cancer Posted July 26, 2019 Report Share Posted July 26, 2019 Mind you, I think there's about a factor of 5000 more humans than leopards in the world these days .... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Quote “But the plans were on display…” “On display? I eventually had to go down to the cellar to find them.” “That’s the display department.” “With a flashlight.” “Ah, well, the lights had probably gone.” “So had the stairs.” “But look, you found the notice, didn’t you?” “Yes,” said Arthur, “yes I did. It was on display in the bottom of a locked filing cabinet stuck in a disused lavatory with a sign on the door saying ‘Beware of the Leopard.” Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
