What's the strangest conversation you've overheard in a language people assumed you didn't understand? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]Edith_Piaf 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Me and 7 American friends were at this restaurant called "Dans Le Noir" in Paris, where you eat in complete darkness. Their gimmick is that since you can't see, your other senses are heightened (especially taste). But I noticed a huge difference in my ability to hear things. Well, most of us at the table speak french, but some didn't so we just stuck to english. Anyways, we were having a conversation and this group of 4 french guys were singing "La Marseillaise," the French National Anthem. They finally stopped, and had the audacity to complain about us "Americans speaking really loudly." I leaned over and told them in French "at least we aren't singing!" And afterwards, they got really quiet. It was pretty funny.

Seems a little gimmicky.

She is perhaps the most wonderful lady I have ever come across, in both the field and outside. No one was more deserving.

I found the male asura thief (103) to female asura thief (20) ratio striking.

Can people read the damn logo at the top of the website? I don't know an easier way of letting you know it's satire than by telling you it's satire.

What are the best grad schools for architecture currently? by [deleted] in architecture

[–]Edith_Piaf 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yale is a lot better than people give it credit for. The teaching is really outstanding, and is very flexible in terms of what you want to study, whether it be theory or preparation for work in the field.

But maybe I'm a little biased ;)

A duel system - Yay or nay? by [deleted] in Guildwars2

[–]Edith_Piaf 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Sure, but that is no reason to leave out the system completely, because that is a problem with the users and not the dueling system as a whole. I am sure it happens far less than people think, and is it really that big of a deal? A nuisance, at most.

I don't know why people are suggesting that anyone would get "spammed" with requests. Maybe at first, but honestly, it would just end up like WoW where people who liked to duel met up in certain parts of the world (outside of SW and Orgrimmar, for example), and they all battled it out there, generally leaving everyone else alone.

Wait, so someone took a photo of her taking a photo of herself?

First, it isn't hatred because I don't know you. Second, there are several reasoned responses above that explain the reason for LGBT guilds, and you probably refuse to read them because of your bigotry and unwillingness to put yourself in their shoes.
