However, English is easy and flexible, Lithuanian is hard. Probably has something to do with it being the most conservative language in Europe, therefore archaic.

How is that a bad thing?!
As I said, it's difficult, needlessly complicated, yet still very limited.

Honestly, to me it sounds like a wonderful mother tongue.
I fail to see why. Yeah, it would probably sound interesting to a foreigner, but it's not the only important thing in a language.

There was a time when cocksuits would have offended me. It's kind of bad that the time has passed.

Danish has become too simple, I've talked to a few people who wish we still had genders like german, we only have 2 and theres no rules for them, you have to guess or go by ear what sounds best, I hear Dutch is the same.

 Lithuanian words have 10 traits like gender, number, time etc. depending on which the word will end differently. Some words don't have some traits, but basically, you could imagine a chart where the word will be different depending on which mix of gender, number and other traits it has. I can't imagine learning it as a second language.

Nouns in English only lack nonsensical genders (Why the hell is Mädchen neutral, anyway?!) but pretty much have tense, person, number, and just about everything else.
Also, the sequence of tenses, as well as clause restrictions will always come to bite you in the ass.

I looked at the Fiddler's Green page on Wikipedia, and it's gotten bad again. I'm going to have to do some actual credible-type research and get it back up to snuff.

Mädchen is the diminuitive form of Magd (which is indeed female). Diminuitives are neutral.

I haven't been able to pronounce some words properly ever since I had a tumor removed from my jaw. The reason why is probably because I had some nerves removed with it.

Some really bad shit. Really bad shit.

Tenshi... Just remember that you have all of us, we are always there for you, and don't forget about Yumi, and Kiki.


My perceived inability to make new friends due to lack of confidence made me sad.

Every time I get a private message for some reason, I have a deep fear, as if I'm going to die or something.


What the fuck, me?
