Like my small talk got box-rox0red on a prior boot.
what does he mean on the part in red?

I don't think it is a reference to having boxer shorts rocked.
Because of the "prior boot" reference, I think he's talking about a computer being "box-rox0red" (i.e. being damaged). In this case, the computer he's referring to is his brain, which is the source of his "small talk".

thats all, there are more thing i dont understand but i dont want to bother everyone with it, maybe later i´ll put more if it doesnt bother anyone

Not at all. This is fun.

Front even drops your name in that verse (well, if your imagination is as malleable as mine)

Stammer. It's l-like w-when s-somebody c-can't t-talk s-s-s-s-s-straight and th-they re-repeat sssssounds. Maybe they're nervous, like they're talking to a pretty lady.

Or is that stuttering?

:-) To say it like an musketeer: "bouchée!"

IC's box-rox0red explanation is funny. In fauna there are some examples where males are reduced to sperm donors. e.g. bees.

So refering to fauna:
males you can reduce to an erection are called "total drones".

Excellent! I aimed to pick the most self-deprecating internet handle possible, and it seems I've done a decent job of it :)

Is that a question? Cuz if it is
Lollygagging is procrastinating or being lazy
To suck up (also to kiss ass or brown-nose) is when you say things nice about a person right by that person so they think better of you. For instance, if I were to talk about how great Frontalot was while Frontalot was standing next to me so that I could be an intern for him or something, I would be sucking up to Front.
Flatterer is the same as suck-up.

Meiner Geburtstag ist der Sieben-Zwanzig von Juni. (Please Correct my German).


I would say *
Ich habe am siebenundzwanzigsten** Juni Geburtstag.

also correct:
Mein Geburtstag ist am (ist der) siebenundzwanzigsten Juni.

Did you have German in school?


* five persons five meanings ;-) ***
** usually you (have to) name numbers in written German up to twelve. From 13 on you use real numbers.
*** except lawyers. 5 lawyers 7 meanings.

Danke schön. I have learned a bit of German, but have forgotten it. I have graduated from College with a Linguistics Major.

I had a question: I see douchebag (or douche) everywhere - I know what it means but does anyone know how this insult has become trendy? It is an awful word and I don't understand why it is so overused. If someone has info on the origin of the insult...

Usually things that have to do with shit binge sex etc become popular insults. I think that once young people discovered the object/word, they decided that if you shove it up your vadge it's a good insult.

Gaddy,

I just learned an interesting fact about German grammar. So it seems that verbs go at the end of a sentence AND the verbs push & pop off their own little grammar stack.

So an easy sentence of "Gaddy explained grammar" would actually be (per German rules) "Gaddy grammar explained." ???

But if the sentence were more complex like "Gaddy explained grammar after he asked about it" would be written how? I'm guessing: "Gaddy grammar after he about it asked explained". Right? If not, how would that sentence be properly formed? (Please use the English words but with German grammar rules so that I can understand how the word layout goes).

Could you show an example of a 3-verb stack?
