Firsty McFirsterton! Ordinal me!
The Dewey Decimal Classification (DDC, also called the Dewey Decimal System) is a proprietary system of library classification developed by Melvil Dewey in 1876; it has been greatly modified and expanded through 22 major revisions, the most recent in 2003. This system organizes books on library shelves in a specific and repeatable order that makes it easy to find any book and return it to its proper place. The system is used in 200,000 libraries in at least 135 countries.
Oh, and congrats to Keithybabes for frontpaging!
The Library of Congress cataloging system is replacing the Dewy Decimal system in many libraries.
darn. you mean that hour we had to spend each year relearning the dewey decimal system will soon be wasted time.
“Pathetic human race. Arranging their knowledge by category just made it easier to absorb.
Dewey, you fool! Your decimal system has played right into my hands! Ha ha ha ha!”
Go Keithy!!! I think I faved this one!
Yay! Go Keithy! I was afraid this one had failed in the voting since it had been so long since I’d seen it.
Thanks. That’s when they finally appear – when you’ve forgotten about them. PK works in mysterious ways..
Same happened for my Vladurday LOL.
BTW: This one is great!
Congrats Keithy!!!!!
Personally, I think that hairdo needs to be banned.
*takes Palin wig off*
So you don’t think it looks good on me JAC?
No, but those earrings are just fahbulohs!
Dude, if I were Palin at this point, I’d be calling security. That’s really fvcking creepy.
But you’re not Palin, so admit it: you wanna see them make out.
Yee haw!
…
Oddly enough, yes I would.
I’ve never understood the whole chicks making out turn on thing. Two guys making out does nothing for me.
*adds hastily*
But! I cannot begrudge you for enjoying it. More power to ya!
I’m with you. It baffles me completely. Though I do know girls who like watching two guys go at it as well, so it’s not just guys who like watching two people of the opposite gender making out.
I always interpreted it as this:
Guys like to see two girls making out because, in their lower brain, they are thinking, “Hurray- two sexually active females I can reproduce with! I’ll have twice as many kids!”
Girls see two guys making out and their lower brains thinks, “Hey, two sexually active guys for me to choose from for my children! I won’t have to settle!”
I always figured people wanted what they couldn’t have.
Occam’s Razor FTW.
(Choose the simplest explanation that explains the evidence.)
I don’t understand it either; I know (boy do I know) that it happens, but I don’t understand why!
Easy… straight male sees two females making out = WIN, WIN.
Straight male sees female and male making out = WIN, FAIL.
Straight male makes out with female = WIN, WIN.
Straight male makes out with two females = WIN, WIN, WIN.
Thanks for the lol. It is cute, not preachy or nasty. It does not mention food. I was amused It is a winner!
John Lennon probably felt the same way, right before he heard the “Pop. Pop. Pop.”
Don’t mention John Lennon. Then c gray will come around accusing him of being an asshole. We don’t need that fvckwit here.
But wasn’t John Lennon REALLY an a-hole? Come on? I admit let’s not troll bait c-gray, but just the way he treated Forrest Gump alone makes me wanna smack him.
The way Lennon treated Gump? Well, that passed me by like the way Michael Jackson treated Louis Armstrong.
Save us from morons from the alternate universe!
Haha, I love it that you americans use the german word “doppelgänger”
Funny.
Okay then.
Hey, it’s in Webster’s Dictionary! (FYI, pretty much THE American English dictionary.) Why make up words for something when you can use one somebody else already has? We Americans, so dang efficient!
That and English is a Germanic language.
I like seeing umlauts in e-mail. Is there an umlaut on European keyboards or is this some exotic techno-trick?
what dou you mean ?
American keyboards don’t have letters with umlauts. What we’re wondering is whether or not German keyboards have an umlaut key. Our keyboards can only make them by using ASCII codes.
Same thing for the a with an o over it, or the o with a slash through it in the Danish language. US keyboards don’t have them. *sighs*
Yeah you do. Just tricky to find. On Mac I know it’s alt + u, then the letter. I think on Windows it’s ctrl + colon or something. Bis später, ja?
You can either run character mapper and cut and paste, or there’s an alt-key combination that gives accents and umlauts on characters. Hold down the left ALT key and type 246 for lower case or 214 for uppercase on the numeric pad, then release the ALT key. Works on all US/UK keyboards.
Yes, German Keyboards have ÄÜÖ on the keyboard, French ones have the weird ones with the E with 2 dots.
You can get them by pressing ALT-129 for ü etc (forgot all the combinations, I used them when I lived in the states.
ALT-225 is the ß
Just look up ascii table if you want them
Cool. Thanks for answering the question. Most of the regulars I think know how to do it the other way (or how to look it up at least), we just were curious if you HAD to in places where those are commonly used.
Shouldn’t you be “Der Deutsche”?
Sorry, I forgot the
Yes, but I like “Ze GHERMAN” much more (it is what my british colleagues called me on a project – and told me I could have played someone on “Hello Hello”
Also I americanised my name to “John” because “Johannes” was getting horribly mutilated by people
Mit freundlichen Grüßen,
DER DEUTSCHE
Apparently if you want to see the German language thoroughly mutilated, you should visit the German-settled towns in Texas where they still speak something that they say is German, but according to a German exchange student is not. She said it was incredibly archaic and spoken with a rural Texas accent to boot.
Heh – that’s funny – that is what we say about the German-settled island of England and its colonies (sorry I couldn’t resist
)
But it is always funny to hear renditions of bastardised German – although to be fair, someone from the north of Germany can almost not understand someone from the deep south (Bavaria etc.)
The dialects get so heavy it is almost another language (Insert US / Texas reference here)
I met a very nice German college student near Salisbury, England, who complained that she thought she had learned English, but couldn’t understand the English. I had to laugh and tell her that I couldn’t understand half the people in southern England either. What is it about the southern parts of countries that produces such strong accents?
Although I now live in New Mexico, in the southwest, and people here do not have much of an accent except those with a pronounced Spanish or Mexican accent.
And I suppose places like Newcastle, Sheffield or Liverpool don’t have strong accents at all, eh?
Never having been to any of those places, I wouldn’t know. We were just having a nice conversation about southern parts of countries we had been to.
I had the same experience in Bavaria, where some languages students were wondering why I could understand the Bavarians and Austrians, and they couldn’t, in the final year of degrees in German and something else.
Really? I’m from South England. It’s the North that’s the REAL problem.
That’s what all the Southerners here say.
(Actually, I was never north of London, so I wouldn’t know about that part of England.)
You want to hear bastardized German, you should’ve been in my high school German class. I was awesome in that class, though, but that was a long time ago. I majored in German for a whole semester. That didn’t go well.
I like it as well. Please come back often.
Don’t understand how people don’t know how to pronounce your name Joe hainses. Seriously, it’s not that hard.
We have åäö keys, but also a ¨ key. Not that we need it for Swedish, but an ü is always nice to be able to make. I güëss.
Cool. I don’t know why we never thought of just asking you.
So I guess the keyboard layout would have to be different, too. That’s really obvious, I guess, but I never thought about it before.
Right. Links are, of course, evil things that need to be moderated, so I guess that particular reply is rendered useless. *mutters and grumbles*
Google “keyboard layout illustrations” and the first link (for me, at any rate) has maps of a plentitude of keyboard layouts. Quite interesting, in a uselessly nerdy way.
Isn’t ‘uselessly nerdy’ an oxymoron?
I think they should do links as they do comments: if someone has had a link removed for offensive content, then hold for moderation any future post that person makes containing a link. That just penalizes the offenders.
Well, why not? The German language had a lot of influence on the English language in the United States of America. While it was a British colony, there were immigrants from all over Europe. And that is what brought about the unique mix that is now American English.
People of/who claim German descent are the most numerous group in the US, I think (followed by the Irish, don’tcha know).
Or, I could be making it up. Anyhow, English is a Teutonic-based langidge, I believe (vs. all them romantical-like ones).
English is a West Germanic language that originated from the Anglo-Frisian dialects brought to Britain by Germanic invaders from various parts of what is now northwest Germany and the Netherlands. Initially, Old English was a diverse group of dialects, reflecting the varied origins of the Anglo-Saxon Kingdoms of England. One of these dialects, Late West Saxon, eventually came to dominate.
The original Old English language was then influenced by two further waves of invasion: the first by speakers of the Scandinavian branch of the Germanic language family, who conquered and colonized parts of Britain in the 8th and 9th centuries; the second by the Normans in the 11th century, who spoke Old Norman and ultimately developed an English variety of this called Anglo-Norman. These two invasions caused English to become “mixed” to some degree.
Cohabitation with the Scandinavians resulted in a significant grammatical simplification and lexical enrichment of the Anglo-Frisian core of English; the later Norman occupation led to the grafting onto that Germanic core of a more elaborate layer of words from the Romance languages (Latin based languages). This Norman influence entered English largely through the courts and government. Thus, English developed into a “borrowing” language of great flexibility, resulting in an enormous and varied vocabulary.
Hrmpth.
English is the world’s language mutt.
I love the German language, though.
Jawohl!
We Germans are still waiting for an official apology for David Hasselhoff though
Loved him in Dodgeball though
“cohabitation with the Scandiavians” is a phrase that I can get behind!
Mmmmm… Scandinavian girls *drools*
*shimmies for Cynical’s enjoyment*
I don’t know who said it, but some one once referred to the English language as a language that hides in dark alleys and mugs other languages and searches their pockets for loose words (it might have been T Pratchett)
I believe this is the original:
“The problem with defending the purity of the English language is that English is about as pure as a cribhouse whore. We don’t just borrow words; on occasion, English has pursued other languages down alleyways to beat them unconscious and rifle their pockets for new vocabulary.”
–James D. Nicoll
However, I also believe Pratchett said something similar, undoubtedly more humourously.
thanks, that was the quote I was looking for
but it is like something Pratchett would say, which is why I thought of him.
and I think Schadenfreude *acknowledges viking girl* was one of the latest “acquisitions”, possibly because the English speaking world found it funny that Germans were taking so much pleasure from other people’s misfortune that they had to coin a word for it ( the reason that the German language is one where simple words are connected together to express more complex concepts being too mundane)
…And hence English has many many examples of two words that mean (or until definitions started to diverge) the same thing. My favourites, for work reasons, are “rail” & “tram” and “road” & “way”, making any of railway, railroad, tramroad and tramway all mean basically the same thing…
Railway (UK) and railroad (US) are synonyms. Despite also being constructed from rails, a tramway is a separate concept, carrying clear implications of being “light rail” rather than “heavy rail”, and of running significant sections of route along (as a semi-dedicated lane) the public highway.
But don’t you also use “look-alike”?
Or even ‘double’, but Doppelgänger is more classy.
And way more fun to say.
And weltschmertz!
Gesundheit!
Aw man, Keithybabes. Cover your mouth when you do that.
Shadenfreud!
Whoops! *schadenfreud*
Schadenfreude. With an ‘e’.
My bad.
It has been a couple decades, after all!
I will admit to googling to make sure.
Oh, OK. Since you were honest…cookie? *hands over plate of tollhouse cookies*
Oooh, thank you!
I use it often enough that I’ve added it to my spell check.
And one of the most used: Angst
That one is definitely my favourite. I love the way it’s pronounced in German too.
Funnily enough, in German it is almost never used to express anxiety or existential dread, it just plainly means fear in any general sense
Ah and I forgot my second most favorite use of German in the English language:
“DIE BART, DIE!”
…
“Noone who speaks German can be all bad!”
Wow, all that from a casual question about the umlaut. Gosh, I seem to have struck a nerve.
Don’t fsck with the Umlaut.
No no, it’s German. It says “The Bart, The”.
The motto of the English language: always have more than one word to choose from for any given definition!
There you are mabs. Can you help me find myself? I’ve been cast, disseminated, distributed, disunited, flung, littered, separated, severed, shattered, split up, spread, and thrown around PK because of a pepper incident. Some of me is in Ivan’s sweater and he wants to wash me out *pouts*
Ah, you’re not asking in the existential sense, are you? ‘Cause I’m not sure I can help with that. I do have a wet-dry shop vac and some duct tape — would that help?
duct tape fixes everything
How about some epoxy to bind together the more important bits?
we’d very much appreciate that
OK, Mabs–if you will woman up for duct-tape-duty, I’ll get to work with epoxy on Andy’s heart, brain and family jewels. 15 minutes to set, and he’ll be back in troll brain consumption action!
The motto of medical biology–why have 2 words, when you could have 3!
The first question that comes to mind is; is the Alternate Sarah the opposite of Alaskan Palin like Alternate Cartman was sweet and caring, Alternate Palin is intelligent and compassionate? And she can’t see Russia from her front porch?
Well the first question that came to my mind was ‘what if she’s the first in a line of Sarah Palins stretching off the photo to infinity?’ I hid behind the sofa at that point.
No, she’s Sarah from the future! Coming to warn Sarah not to run for President in 2012 due to the universe imploding. The force of the implosion sent her back in time to a point where she can undo the damage she’s done!
*Coughplagiaristcoughcough*
Was that you that posted that one? I knew I got that one from somebody.
Yup. {http://cheezburger.com/view.aspx?ciid=6935661} Or at least something similar.
Already favorited it.
It’s a catch-22, because according to Doc Brown: encountering yourself in the past could create a time paradox. The results of which could cause a chain reaction that would unravel the very fabric of the space-time continuum and destroy the entire universe. But if Palin’s imploding the universe anyways, i guess it’s worth a shot.
I had always assumed Doc was lying — or at least exaggerating — to keep Marty from doing something stupid, kind of like Spock Prime at the end of Star Trek.
I think it’d be impossible to ACTUALLY change the past.
For example, in Red Vs. Blue, Church goes back in time and keeps trying to change the events of the past to keep a giant bomb from exploding. Yet every time he tries to stop an event from happening, he discovers that he’s the one who caused the event in the first place. “I’m the teamkilling fvcktard!” And eventually he gives up and accepts that the bomb is going to blow everything up anyway.
By the way, if any of you don’t watch Red Vs. Blue, then you should. Starting right now. Go. Now. Find it now.
The only episode of DS9 that was worth watching (in my book) was the Tribble crossover with TOS. The doctor (don’t let me lie about the names) became convinced that he had to sleep with this one chick because she was his great-grandmother, and since they never knew who his great-grandfather was, it MUST be him. To NOT sleep with this woman would be to change history.
I think he was just horny. That girl was hot.
“Oh look, a lesson on not changing history from Mr. I’m-My-Own-Grandpa. Screw history!”
Haha Futurama rules
Speaking of people from the future being the instruments of the futures destruction – 12 Monkeys did that as well
I love that movie.
Ditto for the first Terminator movie, sort of. John Connor sends Kyle Reese back in time to protect his mom, only for Kyle to impregnate his mom in order for her to give birth to John Connor in the first place…
Or as Kryten in Red Dwarf once put it “I need to go back in time and sacrifice myself in order for us to get into the mess we’re in now. All in all today’s been a bit of a bummer.”
My favorite part of that episode: when they first spot the Klingons. Everyone looks at the TOS Klingons, and back at Worf, who says “We don’t speak about that subject!”
LOL! That is really fooking hilarious.
I always wondered if Star Trek would ever acknowledge the rather profound change in appearance for the Klingons. LMAO
ISTR it’s explained in “Enterprise”.
Yep – it was like a two- or three-part epic episode. (Featuring Uncle Phil as a Klingon, so rock on.)
Leave it to Trekkers – a throwaway gag turned into a massive conspiracy.
Sounds interesting, but it would require me to watch Enterprise, and that just won’t do.
So explain it to the rest of us.
GODDAMNITALLTOHELL now I have to watch Enterprise?! But but.. My Netflix queue is full! FULL!!
FUUUUUUUUULLLLLLLLLLLLLLLL!!!!!!!!!!
My personal favourite part was when Bashir came out wearing the wrong color uniform and Obrien is explaining the correct colours. “In Kirks time command wore yellow, engineering wore red-” enter Jadzia in sexy mini skirt uniform and gogo boots saying “And women wore less”
We can’t be friends anymore.
Don’t forget the “Time Machine”. Not being able to save his fiance, b/c the only reason he built the time machine was to save her, so if he used the machine to save her, he would never build in order to save her………. crazy I know.
Or the Butterfly Effect movie, everytime he went back to “fix” things it always got worse.
I’ve been unable to find the title under either Tanith Lee (writer) or Paul Darrow (male lead), but I remember a very late 1970s or early 80s BBC radio play where the 2 lead charactors both thought they’d discovered time travel, but had actually discovered a way of travelling to the same moment in time that you started from in other possible time lines.
I love Tanith Lee. She’s got some crazy ideas.
I liked her Unicorn trilogy. The main character had a creature called a peeve as a pet. She had a pet peeve! *giggles*
The reason I don’t like this view of time travel compared to the Back To The Future “We can screw everything up beyond belief!” theory is that if history is unchangeable, and time travellers from the future are already a part of history, by logical extension everything from the beginning to the end of time is pre-ordained and there is no fre-will. I’d much rather be able to go back in time and shoot my grandfather, possibly destroying the universe at the same time!
That would’ve been hilarious to be there and hear “You Bethca!” in stereo
If by “hilarious” you mean “excruciatingly annoying, making me want to slash my own throat”, I’m with ya!
WTF?! How many women look like this?!
She’s building an army of clones as we speak. Be afraid. Be VERY afraid.
That’s almost a time paradox right there.
Snake? Snake?! SNAKE?!
WRONG! it’s spelled: Snake? Snake?! SNAAAAAAAKE!!!!?!?!!?!?
Say what? Is that from Metal Gear?
DING DING DING! You win a gold Star!
But he’s a pink star(fish)!
look at the face on real palin’s face
“oh dear…”
Update….Jerimiah Johnson is now on AMC.
And Project Runway is on Lifetime (which still seems weird; I can’t get used to it not being on Bravo anymore!).
JerEmiah Johnson.
Is anybody going to know what I’m referring to if I say, “No, not JerEmiah Johnson, JerImiah Johnson — is BETTER! Much better!”?
You know what’s more frightening than a personality cult? A personality cult devoted to an idiot.
You have a following?
*pulls out a sonic screwdriver*
it’s the palin a race of beings from the red sector of the universe they will stop progress until there leader takes control of the world we must stop them
i knew it, she is a CYLON!
OMG, it’s multiplying! Quick, somebody get the holy water.
….Really? Another lol making fun of Sarah Palin? Is that REALLY the best you can do?
Man, the creativity well really has run dry.
Don’t you insult our Keithy!
Just ignore him/her. That’s what their name tells us to do.
Ignore who?
Regrettably, Sarah Palin is the best you can do. Good luck with that.
Wait – clones??? but I thought the Vatican was for pedophilia but against cloning – are is it the 2 For Tuesday special ????
still in the woods & still demented
Nocsbear
No. You see, Palin had too much Thai food and reproduced asexually, just like amoebas multiply. The day will come when she will biuld a cocoon and come out with an exoskeleton.
Cmon lady
get your own style
So, if you go through and post exactly ONE comment on each recent picture with a link to your website, do you think we’re not going to pick up on the fact that you’re spamming us??!?
Give it a rest, ‘k?
Spam… can I cook it?
Damn it, now we’ll never see the resolution of the “Bad Moose” story arc!
*whispers*…I’m not a boy…or a son.
Having to many windows open when I haven’t gotten enough sleep leads to very odd comments.
will someone please SHUT HER UP.
Remember back in the 80′s when time travelers exploded if they touched one another.. I long for a simpler time..
o_o
Great, now I want to replay Command & Conquer: Red Alert. XD
