Hai guys, there was a super-sweet 18 party here so when they left there were some unopened beers. So...
All the 18ish girls talking to me like I was 30 just because I wear light beard and a tie, damn you
How does one talk to somebody like they are 18? And 16 for beer? Italy does it right.
Yes 16 for every light drink, like beer, bacardi breezer and similar.ikkemenx said:
And it's just in italian, whn you talk to higher in grade / older people you use the female third person.
So in english you say to your boss "good evening, how are you?"
And in Italian it's like "Good evening, how is she doing?"
It can seem strange but that's it. And when people of your age insist using this just because you're working makes me feel kinda old and weird.

Ah, interesting! This is going to sound stupid/ignorant, but is the reason you know English because of the public school system? I know in Europe lots of languages are taught and the average person will know like 3 languages, but if this is the case it really blows me away. The second-language education and immersion programs here don't ever result in a person speaking as fluently as you are now.

You need to post a pic of these when they've got a few months of wear under their belt then. If the manufacturer is factoring in how they'll look after being worn for a while as part of their selling point, it'll be interesting to see if ... well, you know what I mean. I'm too drunk to carry on :lol

Yes, I started studying english when I was 6. Luckily I was really interested because of Super Mario 64, I thought all those signs could tell me how to find hidden stars.. so I used to play while trying to translate with a vocabulary. So videogames are the reason, Mario64 and Zelda OOT on top. Playstation here reached its status also thanks to the translations. Poorly made, but everyone could play. After that I started watching movies and series with original dubs.
But still, I'm not that good. I'm still one of the best among people I know, I was the best in my class and all but they usually teach you only the basics. I guess every other country studies English from elementary school, we really need it here... and usually people knowing 3 languages just travel a lot or live on the borders or have parents coming from different countries.

That's really impressive! That you got to that level through personal interest and pursuits mostly. You say you're not that good but (in my opinion, as English is also my second language) English is a pretty hard language to learn and if they don't teach you much in class then I'd say you're great. I can only hope to get my Japanese up to the level your English is at

the drubk thread is equal opportunity
I think I'll seriously try with japanese, I keep on hearing italian is one of the hardest languages to learn and properly use.ikkemenx said:That's really impressive!

And it's pretty similar to japanese in terms of pronounce so it could be easy.
PS: a girl just came out because she couldn't sleep. Same age, blablabla, talk for an hour, takes a drink then goes to bed without leaving number. damn.

ikkemenx said:At the hotel? Doesn't that mean she hasn't gone anywhere?
I kid, I kid.
She had the 35yo boyfriend sleeping in the room.
If she was alone I'd have two tongues now, said she'll be back someday hopefully so I'll wait. I guess some day I'll have a chick marathon, I'm already

Me: FUCK YOU COPERNICUS
You started? You are clearly a bad person. Did you throw her out of the window because you was banging the RL equivalent of girl-gaf, in terms of number?
EDIT: You banged her? ARE YOU CURRAZY
Good job man, now never see her again please.

They don't make minimum wage silly. You're overpaying. They make the tipped minimum wage which is like 2.15 an hour.Copernicus said:
