The 10pm thread (archived)

[crazycoffey]

The big anti-hijack thread.....
Talk about anything, but if this works than we don't have to keep looking around all the threads to see who is still on tonight, and every night, or even every day! Talk about the chiefs, talk about tomorrow, talk about football, politics or even how to do flooring and the applicable budget. What you're drinking, how hard it is to sleep, etc. Every thing is acceptable in this thread.....

http://www.timeanddate.com/worldcloc...om.html?sort=2 see for yourself, it is ten o'clock somewhere.

Seriously, everyone should learn proverbs. They work magic in bars.

The online translator gave me "You're pulling my leg" for that.

I cant tell you what the direct translation was, but figuratively it meant, Please touch my happy button.

Probably something like "Tengo la uva gatorade atrás en mi lugar".

Hmm, I don't think that really works as a direct translation. Proverbs often don't go word for word because they rely on cultural references.

I think if I were trying to get across the idea of "Don't look a gift horse in the mouth" I would say "A buen hambre no hay pan duro".

Hmm, I don't remember for sure.

"Todo se resuelve que no sea la muerte" is a good one. Everything works itself out as long as it isn't death.
