replace "snowed" with "snew"

wouldn't that only make sense? "oh it really snowed a lot!" should be "holy fuck, it snew everywhere!" like grow gets it; grew.

Speech Impediment...in German?

So just a thought...What would a speech impediment sound like in a different language? Dutch? Spanish? How about Korean?

British & Australian Accents

Who decided that British & Australian accents are sexy?

Someone, somewhere, sometime long ago probably laid down the verdict and everyone was just like "word."

Try this fun talk

If you say "rise up lights" in a British accent it sounds like "razor blades" in an australian accent. I did this for two hours

a joke made me start thinking!

I was just on omegle, if you don't know it check it out
omegle.com
blazed as always, and I was trying to convince a person that I don't speak English, as a stupid joke of course because we're both speaking in English...and the person was taking me seriously, trying to get me to realize that we are, in fact, speaking in English, so clearly I must speak English.
(there is an owl hooting outside my window right now)

Then I started talking about how maybe you're not speaking English either!... read more »

Raze- To tear down, to lower

Both these words are pronounced the exact same but have COMPLETELY opposite definitions. Try explaining this to a foreigner.

I wonder what babies think because they don't know any words. Do they have their own language, or what do they do? It blows my mind thinking of this.

Think about it

There should no longer be different languages.

Maybe I'm too optimistic, but shouldn't we all speak the same language in the future? I mean, it's not like we don't know everybody else is here now, why don't we all try to talk to each other? And don't give me that international language of love bullshit, I've tried that at work. It's real name is sexual harassment apparently.
