Is it just me, or....

[Katarhyne]

Hasn't anyone else noticed that Lut's name (I couldn't find the ASCII combination and we don't have charmap.exe at work) is actually pronounced "leet"?

Just a thought. I probably like totally missed this debate earlier, huh?

[stphrz]

ü = alt+129

And it's pronounced Loot.

[Zaldron]

Wait, how do you pronounce "Luet"?

[Kid Airbag]

I'd pronounce it Loo-ett.

[999cop]

LUT = NUT

[Kid Airbag]

However, Lüt = newt.

You know, that little girl from Aliens.

[IMJack]

I've been pronouncing it "loot" as in PH47 L3WT!!!

[Katarhyne]

It's sorta like "leet" of your accent is right.

[Zaldron]

Well it really depends on the language. I guess we should ask a German how to pronounce that.

[Hellbent]

That's a heavy accent, Kat.

[Katarhyne]

But I grew up hearing German, low German at that. My family is from southern Hesse. I don't really know that much but anytime I speak it I invariably end up with far too heavy an accent. ^_^ My German teacher in highschool always used to comment on that.

[Hellbent]

What starts with one?

What does it end with?

[Zaldron]

At least you have an accent. It's quite hard to learn it.

[Hellbent]

Kat, why does it start with one?

[Katarhyne]

it starts with one

i don't know why;
it doesn't even matter how hard you try-
keep that in mind,
i designed this rhyme to explain in due time:
all I know.
time is a valuable thing;
watch it fly by as the pendulum swings -
watch it count down to the end of the day,
the clock ticks life away.
it's so unreal.
didn't look out below;
watch the time go right out the window,
trying to hold on, but didn't even know;
wasted it all just to watch you go.
I kept everything inside and even though I tried, it all fell apart.
what it meant to me will eventually be a memory of a time when I tried so hard,
and got so far...but in the end, it doesn't even matter.
i had to fall to lose it all,
but in the end it doesn't even matter.

one thing, i don't know why-
it doesn't even matter how hard you try.
keep that in mind;
i designed this rhyme, to remind myself how I tried so hard,
in spite of the way you were mocking me,
acting like I was part of your property;
remembering all the times you fought with me,
i'm surprised it got so far.
things aren't the way they were before;
you wouldn't even recognize me anymore.
Not that you knew me back then,
but it all comes back to me in the end.
you kept everything inside and even though i tried, it all fell apart.

[Lüt]

However, Lüt = newt.

Heh, I once heard that Newt Gingrich once had an actual newt lodged in his gingrich.

Let's see...."In The End", by Linkin' Park, correct?

Wow... Doomboy's right, how often does that happen? The video for the song sucked, chester looked like a nsync member. Crawling (chick is hot!) and Papercut are the shit though.

[danarchist]

Riiight...anyways Lüt should be pronounced Loot, kind of how über is pronounced oober...buth there is kind of an 'e' sound, now that I remeber my German classes.

[fodders]

And how is buth pronounced?

[Ralphis`]

My december is a leet song too

[Kid Airbag]

Heh, anyone ever heard "bonin' in the boneyard" by Fishbone?

[Ralphis`]

pfft. YOU SUCK

[Kid Airbag]

Hey, that song is cool.

[deadnail]

Pff, I still like Monster Skank by Infectious Grooves.





Once when we were swimming he tried to drown my sister.
Laughing as she struggled... then he pulled her up and kissed her.
We call him Cousin Randy. To us he's just Cousin Randy.

[DooMBoy]

Fah, Linkin' Park sucks.

And Cake doesn't, I presume?

[deadnail]

Jesus naked on a pogo stick DooMBoy you could replace a few of those new lines with spaces and trim that sig down to three or four lines tall. More than could, you should.

Its considerate of you to offer such a convenient sig but shit man, it doesn't need to be that fucking tall.
