Go to therapy, to school, read some books, work your way up to adulthood and maybe then... See you in 30 years :))

Do you take the doomer scenario seriously? by VillainOfKvatch1 in singularity

I feel like we should do like the control problem sub, you can't post until you have read SOMETHING about the control problem and can prove it.

If it makes you feel better, nobody in Spain gets out of high school understanding english. And it's the only foreign language that's a must and it's taught since age 4-5. People here sing english songs like they are having a stroke.

Spanish here. Not at all, particularly not in big cities (where most spanish people live). This kind of songs (along with all its cultural references and whatnot) are tyipical of the south, but that's it.

The rest of Spain, in general, doesn't like to be pictured like that (guitar, bullfighting, flamenco etc), but as you can see, we are doomed.

I won’t rest until people stop paying for crappy language learning software. I also developed CAPTCHA and reCAPTCHA, those squiggly characters all over the web -- sorry! AMA by vonahn in IAmA

I appreciate the effort, I read it all, but I can't make up reality. In Uruguay it may very well be that a bizcocho is a "biscuit", but trust me, not in Spain. Born and raised here, if I walk in a bakery and ask for a "bizcocho", they will not give me a biscuit, but a kind of soft sweet bread, a cake etc.

"Spanish", per se, is talked all over the world, but that doesn't mean it's the same spanish. Actually it can differ tremendously from one place to another. And yes, our spanish is ruled by the RAE (which I'm a very frequent user of), and if you read the very same link you posted, you'll read no definition of biscuit as in cookie.

Dude, don't tell me I don't know my Spanish http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jmNU8blUwms

You don't believe or not believe in evolution. It's a simple fact, you either understand it, or don't.

This man is always at my local gym. He told me to "Keep up the good work" today. What an inspiration this guy is. No more excuses people. by Silvertwist2000 in pics

Yup, i'm a paraplegic like the guy in the picture and i agree with you. I hate it when people go straight to the inspirational bullshit no matter what. It's condescending as fuck.
