What a long, strange trip it's been -- (Robert Hunter)

Its funny how we(and the french) just pick another animal all together. The germans say Ganzehaut if I`m not mistaken which is also gooseskin.
We say kippenvel, the french say chair de poule hohn hohn hohn and both mean chickenskin.
Well whatever you call it, I`ve got it. But now there is that nagging feeling. I think the Gungnir sounded better when I was auditioning it.
So I see Alice running and a bunch of rabbitholes opening up.
I`m done spending for a while but Vidar and some speakers with a bigger soundstage than my current ones are in my future.

edit:
Is it possible that gungnir gives me way more low-end than I had before?
Today I had the urge to tone down my sub more than once.
I think tomorrow I will, see what happens.

edit 2:
I now appreciate the tube on Saga more.
Kept it all passive before. Now I see/hear its point.
Nick Cave is sounding real cave-y right now.

Germans say "Gesundheit" when a person sneezes. It means "health".

Maybe he does but the language does not resemble Spanish that much.
Just like Dutch and German are waaaaay different.
For Portuguese-Spanish I can say that if you are not a completely dumb person you can understand the other reasonably well if you speak on of the languages. I worked with an Argentinean and we understood each other very well, just some minor bumps along the more complex topics or some specific words. I also did the same on a training that was done in Italian, but it was much harder to understand.

Sure, change your premise in the face of disagreement! You said this:

"the language [Portuguese] does not resemble Spanish that much"

Now you equate "resemble" with being able to read, write, and speak.

Spanish and Portuguese have a very close relationship and do closely resemble each other. They are from the West Iberian branch of the Romance languages.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.......
You're a real fighter for the truth we know that.

edited out some BS.

We all love you very much.
But still.... you don't know what you're talking about.
Indeed I used the word resemblance where I should have said proficiency.
Now... happy?

edited out some more BS.

I'll just get on with my life and wish you luck with all that friends you mentioned.
I just don't care enough.
And yes... I have some difficulty to take everything serious.

edit and some more BS

Gesundheit.

edit Klahr....

I concur really.
I was confusing the topic by meaning proficiency when I wrote resemblance.
So I'll take the fall and do 30 minutes of ABBA again.

I got a load of PM's you sent to other people to get to it.

You can get on bugger someone else because he calls a MacBook Pro a MacPro for example.
Or try to get another flame war going in which your post is not going to get un-deleted.
Or better... report me.
I'll just get on with my life and wish you luck with all that friends you mentioned.

Least of all (up)winders.
Gesundheit.

PM's sent to other people? Report you? What are you talking about? Whatever you are smoking, I want some!

Now that my friend is a good proposition.
I'm beginning to like you after all.

edit 1: No.. I should say... already.

edit 2: And please... do not take me too serious.

edit 3: And I auto-censored most of the BS out of that post.
