Someone's missing the point of the story. Hint: You get a sparkle of it at the end of the teaser.

Apart from that, there's a lot missing on your list.

"severe hangover and starving"? :)

I was joking of course. I'd be glad to read your story, only my German can't handle any vocabulary more elaborate than that of "Hausmärchen" or Petzi. Ahem.

Or perhaps: I läse gern deine Geschichte, aber ich fürchte ich kann ihr auf Deutsch nicht verstehen.

Well, in almost correct german, this would be "Ich läse gern Deine Geschichte, aber ich fürchte, ich kann sie auf Deutsch nicht verstehen". Silb actually showed some serious german skillz by using the Konjunktiv, although he could have been more consequent by writing "...aber ich fürchte, ich würde sie auf Deutsch nicht verstehen".
This is typical for french people, they always rule when it's about correct grammar. Everybody who knows french knows why..

The translation would be "I'd love to read your story, but I guess I wouldn't understand it if it's in german".

you shoulda wrote:"Ah, I see" said the blind man, as he picked up his hammer and saw.
You must have some German influence the way you throw capitals around.

German? No, no, no! He must've had Winnie the Pooh influence.

I assume you're not joking there?

Personally, I think it adds to your personality. :)

I think you were saying, "I think you are interesting and fine just the way you are," and C was hearing you say, "Your handicap makes you interesting to me in that same way that I can't stop staring at someone with a weird nose."

Personally, I like you fine the way you are too, C, but I find your random spelling and stuff distracting sometimes when I read your posts. However, it's just a characteristic of your posts, not your personality.

I find you (Colicedus) obnoxious and stupid, but then I hate everyone.
