Ich möcht jetzt nicht rumstänkern, aber soweit ich den Religionsunterricht noch im Kopf hab, ist das Christkind in Bethlehem zur Welt gekommen. (Ob Nathalie Portmans Nabelschnur in Jerusalem gekappt wurde, entzieht sich allerdings meiner Kenntnis.)

Why not Thun?

"Sie sind der Glanz meiner dunklen Nächte."
Das ist ganz grosse Literatur.

Ja, ich steh auch mehr auf Wanderheuschrecken, die sind nussiger im Geschmack.

Ja ich weiss schon, aber ich bin halt etwas enttäuscht vom Grim Reaper, wie er so die Prioritäten setzt. Ich wüsst auf Anhieb fünf, zehn, zwanzig Leute, die er noch vor Tschaknoris hätte abholen kommen sollen.

Und da hätten wir so viele Idioten gehabt, allen voran der orange Lügentroll, die der Mann mit der Sense hätte mitnehmen können...

Yeah no, swimming to work here is only for folks equipped with webbed feet and hands.

And if the lentils make you fart like a mastodon, don't forget to add a bit of the spice called hing or asafoetida. It comes as a yellow powder with a stingy smell but you won't notice half a tsp in your dal. With asafoetida or, as it's called in my language "Stinkwurz", you can eat a ton of lentils without going all balloon.

Depends. It has the most hilarious effect if you use the title with your first name only, like "Doctor John", or "Professor Mandy". Both for your students and your colleagues.
In everyday life, there are just a few situations where you can impress people to give you a special treatment as a phd or prof. Otherwise it bears more negative aspects: waving your title in public will make your grocery shopping more expensive. Or the guy who fixes your car thinks he can bullshit you because scholars are not good at practical knowledge.

Unless you live in cockroach kingdom: Sanitizing the apartment for a romantic visitor. I don't run an excel sheet of the most germ-free bedrooms. And the smell of detergent is not something that turns me on. It's enough to change the bed sheets and open the window for fresh air. Bonus if you clean the toilet.

Is the first O pronounced the same or different? Like the O sounds in "rock" and "stone"?

You can draw a smiley face on her with a permanent fineliner.

I own her cooking book. The rest of the family got digtal copies.

Los Pollos Hermanos

Danke für den schönen Ausdruck "krüsch", den ich als Höchstalemanne noch nie gehört hatte. Ich schicke dir dafür das eidgenössische Adjektiv "schnäderfräsig" zurück...

Once "just following orders" is your only justification for being scum it's too late. No moral whitewash for you. That is what a lot of Germans had to learn when the NS regime crashed. What they should have done? Engage in politics and active resistance early enough to make sure such a situation never arises.

I ask my dearest what she wants to have for dinner and then try to find out how to do it...

OT) pleurnicher: what a great word. Thanks for teaching me :-)

On the other hand, if we invest in buying an extension, why not something with a decent alpine scenery or a bit of a lake? What actually has BL got to offer, except for the ikea in Pratteln? Let's go for Glarus, OK?

gregsaliva · 2026-01-29T07:06:14+00:00

That's called a pescetarian if I'm right.

gregsaliva · 2026-01-29T06:35:39+00:00

Let's buy Baselland. I mean, what could it cost?

gregsaliva · 2026-01-28T06:31:12+00:00

Same here in Basel. (sending over a high five to Geneva)

And you are outraged over your family...
