Quote from: Sheilbh on May 06, 2022, 09:25:44 AMOnce again, the Balkan internet are flaming each other :lol:

Croatia claiming Tesla would be quite good trolling as well.  :ph34r:

Oh, they do, and it's some quite fine trolling: he will be on the Croatian Euro coins once they join the Eurozone.  :lol:

Great, didn't expect anything less.  :lol:

They do have a bit of a point, though, as Tesla was born and raised in current Croatia, even if he came from an ethnically Serb family. He never actually set foot in Serbia in his lifetime.

I don't think these Balkan things are done for the laughs to the degree you guys think.

It's an improvement over the1990s, though.

America does mother's day on the same day as Switzerland. Interesting.

Yorkshire dialect, recorded 1952.

I am, somehow, less interested in the weight and convolutions of Einstein's brain than in the near certainty that people of equal talent have lived and died in cotton fields and sweatshops.

I've noticed in the past that Yorkshire accents from the time tended to sound a lot more northern than they do today.
Seeing it a bit here but also some outright Jamaican bits on other words :hmm:

Youtube really wants me to watch clips of "the Meg".
I've given it serious thought. I must scorn the ways of my family, and seek a Japanese woman to yield me my progeny. He shall live in the lands of the east, and be well tutored in his sacred trust to weave the best traditions of Japan and the Sacred South together, until such time as he (or, indeed his house, which will periodically require infusion of both Southern and Japanese bloodlines of note) can deliver to the South it's independence, either in this world or in space.  -Lettow April of 2011

Raz is right. -MadImmortalMan March of 2017

Shut up, YouTube.
Women want me. Men want to be with me.

How the YouTube algorithm locks you into rabbit holes really sucks. I keep getting shown videos about transit which... Can be interesting sometimes but damn. I'm so sick of hearing some guy talk about the wheels on the Las Vegas sky train.
YouTube needs a button to give your suggestions a shake.
