popsjumper 2 #51 April 16, 2012 Quote Danish is a noun when referring to pastry. "A cheese Danish, please." Similarly, a Berliner, in Germany, is a jelly doughnut. Knock it off you guys. You're making me hungry. On top of that. you keep throwing out "Danish" and the goobermint bozos will soon ban them regardless of constitutionality....and that would really piss me off.My reality and yours are quite different. I think we're all Bozos on this bus. Falcon5232, SCS8170, SCSA353, POPS9398, DS239 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
shropshire 0 #52 April 16, 2012 Quote Quote "Berliner" can refer to a citizen of Berlin, Danish can't refer to a Citizen of Danmark. Beside "Danish" is short for "Danish X" in that context. This isn't exactly Grammatical Nazism but what is it. Ethymologic Nazism? In the USA "Danish" is definitely a noun nowadays. I can go to a store less than a mile from my house and buy a Danish. I can have a Danish for breakfast. I'd rather have a Full English! Wouldn't that be because 'Danish' in that sense is a contraction of the more accurate Danish pastry? No even sure if the Danes invented them - they probably pillaged them from someone else (.)Y(.)

popsjumper 2 #53 April 16, 2012 Quote What if there was no friction? What if gravity was repulsive? What if the fine structure constant was different by 4%? What if neutrinos really did go faster than light? What if pi = 10? These are the really interesting questions. Yes, yes. These are all important questions and I'll add a couple more: 1. If you shoot a mime, should you use a silencer? 2. How did a fool and his money get together in the first place? 3. Is Santa an independent clause? 4. Did Gomer ever get laid?My reality and yours are quite different. I think we're all Bozos on this bus.

kallend 1,623 #55 April 16, 2012 QuoteWhy do you park on a drive way, but drive on a park way? When I arrive at an airport why do I have to go to "departures", but when I leave, I leave from "arrivals"?... The only sure way to survive a canopy collision is not to have one.
