Polarizes means that someone divides the people in two groups: One group loves him to death, the other group hates him.

I recommend http://dict.leo.org to you, or www.wikipedia.decom. If it's not the translation.

 

[CraZyChris]

I hate checking a word in a Dictionary. If someone explains me a word, I can remember the word! :-D

 

[Karud]

Anyway, who knows good radio plays? I would prefere them in BE (British English).
Thanks in advance.

Well, I can also train my language skills with explaining a word with other words. I have to work until Tuesday, then my holiday will start *happy* And in a few hours this sh** week is also over

Either u r all trying to shit me with your holidays or u just don't know the difference...

holidays = feiertage
break (AE) = ferien
vacation (dunno but I think it's AE as well) = urlaub

 

[Snoopy181]

I'm sorry to correct you, but referring to dict.leo.org, "holiday" can also mean the German "Ferien" or "Urlaub"

I know. But nobody ever mentioned holiday. Everybody was talking about holidays, which does not mean the same. And I didn't even write holiday.

These gnats are f***ing my life!
There's only one ... infestation ... worse than gnats.

WASPS. I'm allergic against them and they literally f*** my life.

 

[CraZyChris]

[Tazjin]

I dunno?

 

[iNiKeY22]

He's just gettin' crazy because of f-ing insects. And because he's allergic to 'em.

 

[CraZyChris]

Yeo, I think he's in bad mood

yeah well, last time a wasp stung me (been able to avoid that for five years now) I enjoyed that for about 3 and a half month.
That's why I hate this time of the year.

@Chris: Shut your bloody cakehole!

ermm. yeah kinda

 

[Karud]

In my whole life, I only made it once, to anger a wasp hard enough to sting me. And still it was by accident. Tell me your secret.

 

[darkCarpet]

Tell me your secret.

You won't know that really.

 

[Tazjin]

I am Captain Internet.

 

[darkCarpet]

For sure ...

And I'm Madame Tussauds herself.
