Tired of nimh

when i see nimh posted i scroll down and see where everywhere he's been. and read up. i learn many a thing that way.
budapest will be wonderful. procrastination before such a move is inevitable, i'd be much worse. i will be much worse. soon enough.

C'mon nimh. This is a poor showing. Do I need you to refer you to Kicky's threads as a model of the online personal crisis? You've gotta contribute, man.

well, it is 6am in netherlands... though that don't mean he can't be up. the man's up at oddest times.

the man's oddest at the up times.

Ooooh - how much of Nimh is persona - and how much reflects the rel life Nimh?


(No Googling)

"Real-life?" Much as many of us (myself, at any rate) might be loath to admit it, this is a part of real-life. And I think the written voice, when it is consciously developed (as nimh's clearly is; he writes in a second language far better than the vast majority of us who are writing in a first language), is as much a valid voice as a spoken voice.


Unless, of course, nimh is a 60-year-old-woman living in Des Moines, Iowa. Then she's got some 'splaining to do, Lucy.

Exactly - and HE said persona, which piqued my interest.

Wee de wolf die in een kwaad gerucht staat?

He, isn't this your "gedoogzone", nimh?

Have some "Dutch courage" - and "Keulen en Aken zijn niet op een dag gebouwd", so there are enough days to start packing

"Gedoogzone" yes, that pretty much clinches it in terms of persona vs real-life. Good one. Unfortunately I dont know what "Dutch courage" means - but it doesnt sound impressive.

<rubs sleep out of eyes>

Indeed it isn't

But since I didn't find any other expression ...
The phrase "Dutch courage" is a slang term for courage gained from intoxication by alcohol. It is synonymous with liquid courage.

What are you talking about? In my many years of studying the Dutch I have found untold incidents of Dutch courage. There was the time that.... um... Well, there was the... Oh, yeah and the time when... Ooops, that was Zimbabwa. Never mind.

You can do it nimh. Make a list, check it twice and "get 'er done." as they say here in the Redneck areas.

Re: Tired of nimh

As usual, you are arguing a position that has no merit at all. And as usual, you rule anyway.

With insults like that, who needs compliments?

Nice ass.

Who, me?

Oh no, I see ... even my ass is easily overtaken by someone else.

I mean, no, wait - that sounded all wrong, I mean - well you know what I mean. Right?

You have a sexy mind, Nimh.

That is better than a nice ass - except, maybe, when it is Eeyore - hmmmmmmm....

Nimh,
It is time for you to see the Great Owl.
Moving day is coming soon.... he will tell you what to do. ;-)
