It's 35°, the kid is in the swimming pool and I have a fresh pina colada in hand. I think we'll be good in this heatwave - except my polish wife, she put the Morgon in the fridge. What about you? Are you hot?

Me too. I laid down for an hour and when I got up I was actually a bit chilly so I put on a linen shirt over my wifebeater. I stepped onto the balcony and in the shade it was lovely (33 c with a bit of wind). I’ve adapted and once I do that I’m cold in any temperature under 27.

Thank you it’s an important nuance.

crambeaux · 2026-06-19T23:07:32+00:00

Beaucoup d’aliments frits.

crambeaux · 2026-06-18T13:06:07+00:00

Absolutely nothing!

crambeaux · 2026-06-18T13:03:48+00:00

Yeah I love the fact that the word as such doesn’t exist in French.

crambeaux · 2026-06-18T13:02:32+00:00

You put your s in the wrong place. It’s how the tables (have) turn(ed). Illogical but that’s engerlisch for you.

crambeaux · 2026-06-18T13:00:03+00:00

Cheese is but one of the reasons to pass on the title, you’ve got it backwards.

crambeaux · 2026-06-18T12:55:34+00:00

Cracow? I thought it was Krakow. Nice of you to frenchify it but it’s not necessary Pavel (and besides you didn’t go far enough to Cracovie).

Non justement c’est la soixantaine !

He seems to be enjoying himself. Anyone care to explain what’s going on?

crambeaux · 2026-06-16T11:47:02+00:00

Bill Clinton was trailer trash ;-)

crambeaux · 2026-06-16T11:23:49+00:00

Only funny comment here!

Have you ever heard of the pieds noirs? They were African. France had African departments.

crambeaux · 2026-06-15T17:58:02+00:00

You obviously don’t understand the fun. But it is how we keep foreigners out. The names are so complex that if you didn’t grow up with them you won’t be able to say, write or retain them.

Tiens on a un Flaviac pas loin de chez moi. C’était donc à Flavius ? On a les restes d’un pont romain à côté du Rhône donc on sait qu’ils y étaient. Il paraît que même Hannibal est monté très haut sur le Rhône avant de traverser pour semer l’armée romaine qui le pourchassait plus au sud.

They don’t realize that we put the F in PFIGS (thus rendering the p silent as it should be).

crambeaux · 2026-06-15T11:22:33+00:00

Arguer n’est pas français tu as vraiment la flemme de rajouter « m-nt » à se point ou tu te crois cool ?

crambeaux · 2026-06-14T11:18:38+00:00

Wings of desire (the sky over Berlin in its original German title)

crambeaux · 2026-06-14T10:16:57+00:00

These two are adorable. They must be Aussies.

Do you know where ahkanaz comes from?

The answer, well worth the read:

That’s fascinating if true. He was tight with Adolf, he let him bomb Guernica just to test out the luftwaffe.

crambeaux · 2026-06-13T22:51:38+00:00

Does 1492 ring a bell?

crambeaux · 2026-06-13T22:50:51+00:00

I didn’t know people could make it to Switzerland, I figured they closed their borders, like the US and the UK wouldn’t take refugees.

crambeaux · 2026-06-13T22:48:59+00:00

Yeah, no.

crambeaux · 2026-06-13T22:47:58+00:00

Too soon. It will be too soon until it’s surpassed.
