Mystery of life

[yakalskovich]

Why is it that, although they wear their underwear on their heads, they always know at which stop to get off?

Er, who? ;-)

[yakalskovich]

Slightly demented people on public transport. When I rode the S-Bahn to the station yesterday to catch the train to Wiesbaden, there was this fellow sitting across from me, about fifty, with a huuuuuuge nose, and muttering to himself (or some invisible companion) all the time. Totally not there. But he knew very well at which stop he (they?) had to get off...

[woelfle.livejournal.com]

LOL - the joys of public transport. :-D
Enjoy Wiesbaden!

[yakalskovich]

I will, even though it's terribly rainy here at the moment. We were rained on while walking to the Japanese restaurant last night, and rained on coming back.

And in there, my parents did enjoy the sushi, but they didn't get the principle of 'sushi goes to a parallel universe when eaten' that nazgulwears and I uphold. All-you-can-eat sushi only makes sense with the parallel universe activated...

[woelfle.livejournal.com]

Bah, yes. Rainy here too. But then I have to be indoors most of the time anyway.

Hmmm. I do find that principle interesting, but must admit that, like your parents, I don't get why all-you-can-eat needs it. ;-)

[yakalskovich]

Even all-you-can-eat isn't cheap; it was 16 euro per person there. So. One has to eat significantly more sushi than would add up to 16 euro if the plates and colours were counted, right? And of course always go for the expensive sort. Use the flat rate as best one can, or the flat rate would be pointless.

I think the sushi place in Munich that the Nazgul frequents gets very scared when they see her coming. And if they see me coming with her, ohhh dear...

[woelfle.livejournal.com]

I totally agree. But where does the parallel universe come in?

LOL - behold the Sushi Place Arch Nemememesesesis!

[yakalskovich]

Sushi, when eaten, goes to a parallel universe.

Not your stomach.

Meaning to say, there's infinite room for more sushi.-

Ah. Ahahah. See, I'm stupid. Or at least crap at Transferleistung.

[yakalskovich]

And I'm the kind of crap that I have to ask wikipedia.de what Transferleistung is in the first place.

Well, math didactics is more my mother's field than mine... *shudder*

*washes hands of anything to do with maths*

[woelfle.livejournal.com]

LOL - I never got as far in maths as to hear that word. I believe I heard it used in some uni seminar or other. As in, the ability to draw conclusions from one thing and apply them accordingly... which is what I'm crap at. ;-)

*drinks to crappiness* Or not. Am at work.

[yakalskovich]

Then the person you heard the word from was probably studying to be a teacher? It's probably general didactics by now. When I ask my mother, just saying the word, she immediately quotes an example from teaching kids maths...

[woelfle.livejournal.com]

It might just be that. In any case, it's definitely a wannabe-academic word. :-D

[yakalskovich]

And a very nice word to have learned now to poke at people who need it...

My mother said that basically, many learning disabilities become apparent or are connect to the lack of Transferleistung.

[woelfle.livejournal.com]

Hah, see, thassit! I'm totally learning-challenged! Now there's proof! :-D

[yakalskovich]

Oh yes, challenged. Not a disability. *blushes for lack of political correctness*

[woelfle.livejournal.com]

Never mind. I was offendingly PC on purpose. :-D

I'm also very challenged with Spanish. *sigh*

[yakalskovich]

Well, you know more than I do - I don't even know enough Spanish to understand a Shakira song in the original...

[woelfle.livejournal.com]

But arrrrrrrrrrrrghhhhh Tango lyrics!!! They really make me doubt I ever knew one single word of Spanish.

I guess I should pack up for today and try again tomorrow.

what does Shakira sing? Te quiero, mi amor?

[yakalskovich]

Well, Tango lyricsare probably double-edged and full of smutty slang, like that NC-17 rap I got to hear while having my hair cut last September.

Nah, Shakira sings about other things I don't understand, but they sound very nice.

[woelfle.livejournal.com]

You bet they are smutty. But sometimes they're just plain cheesy and full of self-pity. Which is why I love them so much. But the slang kills me! There are so many words where you don't know wether they are actually people's names, or something that only exists in Argentina, and so on.

She was my whole life, like a spring sun, my hope and my passion, ans she knew that the world wouldn't be enough to contain the humble joys of my poor old heart...

[yakalskovich]

OMG that sounds seriously cheesy...

[woelfle.livejournal.com]

Indeeed.

... and now that everything goes downhill, I can't tear my old illusions out, and dream homesickly of the past for which I cry and that will never return....

[yakalskovich]

Oooowww! Pity I only have a cat icon, not a dog icon, or I would howl...

[woelfle.livejournal.com]

Ah well, the thought counts, as ve szay in Tschermany. :-D

*hooowwwwwwls*

[yakalskovich]

ahhhhhhh - OOUUUUUUUUUUU!!!!

[woelfle.livejournal.com]

Aaaaaaauuuuuuuhh!

And guess what? My whining got the ever-so-popular Senor Sam to ask his vast audience for help. I should have posted the lot. .-D

[nazgulwears.livejournal.com]

Ah, so that's what the SMS was about
Incidentally I mailed Heike if she had time to haunt a Shushi restaurant during the easter holidays. But she's going to Japan in april, for almost three weeks.
I burst with jealousy.
But I got to try the new library system. It's really nice, I have to tell you about it.

[yakalskovich]

Haunting the sushi place and telling me about the new library system are not mutually exclusive...

[wiebke.livejournal.com]

It's a worldwide pnenomenon!

[yakalskovich]

It is very, very odd...
