That I do, it's filled with nitrous. Want a go at it? 5 minutes sealed up in there and you'll be oblivious to everything.

Ingore just makes me think of a bloody mess. Ignoring is fine though.

I'm honestly in awe at how well everyone can speak english when it's a second or third language for them. That just amused me though and had to be commented on.

I know it's quite remarkable how some people on this board can speak English even though they're not native speakers. I still need my dictionary now and then though, but if you try hard enough it's not that diffucult to learn a foreign language. I heard my brother speak french yesterday after he came back from Africa and he had been speaking french three months there, unbelievable!

My latest ex learned a good deal of Italian backpacking through Europe last year and a smattering of French and Spanish. I used to be able to understand Spanish, speaking it and understanding it is entirely different though.
I just never was able to fully grasp a different language myself. I never really "clicked" with one aside from english for some reason.

not that i've tried too much but still, one should be able to learn even some basics of it but noooo! not me..

I'm hopeless with speaking languages aside from english. Reading and writing them on the other hand, I could learn in time with effort I think.

well i can write rather fluent english but when i start talking it.. it usually happens when i'm not "prepared" to do so, and i stagger and search the words and mispronounce them

English isn't that hard to learn when you hear it all day on the TV, surf on the internet, listen to foreign music, play D&D, etc

.
I speak some French, Spanish, German, ancient Greek and Latin(?) aswell

, although Spanish and ancient Greek not very fluent
But I DON'T have a weapon that floates

I know how that is, I can curse and insult people in Spanish, other than that, I can say "cat" and "tall".

I just got a lot of practice with those things in class with my teacher. The lady was useless, like a walking paperweight.

Neither do I, that would be awesome though.
I suppose that does make sense, if your surrounded by a language you embrace it faster, and english is everywhere.
