  1. You are a very good observer, it's not just the usual stereotypes that are kind of repeated throughout YouTube.

  2. Had to get out the Scot dictionary for that. Yes there are. And it's not too bad if not any of them is doing YouTube Videos.

  3. To me this sounds like "I don't want to see you, but if not avoidable, I see you".

  4. But you must admit, the 1's and 9's look closer to what YouTube is presenting you here in Sans Serif. And today I learned another meaning of Cursive. While we consider this just as "Handwriting" and I thought the American call it 'Script', the word cursive popped into German with text processing software, and there it meant inclined characters. While "bold" has a better translation, it's just called 'fat'.

  5. Only, if you have visitors in the house, who take care of shoe brands. This is rather rare. Speaking for men: everybody coming along has already shoes on their feet, why would they need a second pair ? And who would buy or wear shoes used by others ?

  6. we hardly have telemarketing. They tend to call older people only, and they estimate the age by the first name, cause their are seasons for names.

  7. Kind of arrogant. Do you know how the describe that in German ? "We got liberated by the Allied". No Winner/Looser and no American. Also - we do not have any Veterans - we have returnees, but it's not often used cause it covers 100% of male population. So there is no other group to distinguish from. Man, Returnee, Veteran, that's all the same thing in 1950.

  8. It can hardly be confused, a capital I can only appear at the begin of the word, if an l is inside a word that is clear by the word or the context. In "Illustration" as printed here, nobody has trouble to read it. It's not starting with three L's. second and third must be L. So the first must be an I.
