Dear fellow users,
I hope you are having a wonderful and productive day. I hope you are working hard at whatever you do, whether it be exams or work or modding. Enjoy your day and weekend.
Sincerely, Orwell
P.S I hope this is not counted as spam, that is why I put it in off-topic _________________ "Man is the only creature that consumes without producing." |

I wish you the same, I suppose Any particular reason for the joyous mood?
It's for this type of post we have the Off2 thread, really. But there's currently not an uncontrollable wave of spam.

Oh yes, thanks a lot, I did enjoy it, even though I'd say I was being only mildly productive in regards of modding, but wasn't doing so bad in general.

Well, let's say it was. It still would belong to the positive kind of spam. In the end spamming breaks down to frequent posting. And the winner of that is...  |

If frequent posting counts as spamming, then SAOL is a massive spammer. Or maybe you were implying my recent influx of posts counts a technical spam. Anyway good to know that you had a good day, anything especially interesting? _________________ "Man is the only creature that consumes without producing." |

I think there has been talk of an American re-make of the Swedish television show it is originally from, actually. Because god forbid subtitles...

Well, I think my good day has come to an end today. But I suppose that's because weekend is over.  |

I know that feeling, getting back in to the normal routine was not as joyous as the weekend _________________ "Man is the only creature that consumes without producing." |

Even though I usually disagree with everything simply for there sake of it, I'll have to agree here. I spent much of the weekend playing on the computer. I've not had the time or energy for that in a long time. It was nice.
But now it's time to sleep. So have a good night!  _________________

I read this in the middle of the afternoon, so not exactly bed time. Also I have the Austro-Hungarian national anthem in the background, lovely song, and that brings me to a question: What is your favorite national anthem? _________________ "Man is the only creature that consumes without producing." |

Those time zones... aren't they pesky
Favourite national anthem? I wouldn't say I have one. I've certainly not heard them all either. _________________

Let me just state that Sweden does have a relatively nice anthem but my favorite anthems belong to 19th Century Empires (i.e. Ottoman, Austro-Hungarian, Prussia) or to Communist nations ( USSR and China). _________________ "Man is the only creature that consumes without producing." |

Sweden doesn't have a national anthem on paper, although we obviously have a de facto one (or two, if you count the king's anthem). I suppose it's not the worst in the world.
The national anthem of the Soviet union... I can't hear it without thinking about the Swedish spoof translation. I mean what the Russian lyrics sound like in Swedish. It becomes difficult to take it seriously.
It's nicknamed "stackars negerslav" in Swedish - which would be "poor nigger-slave" in English. _________________

Hey, that's what it sounds like I'm not making it up.
My day has been... all right. Yesterday I was supposed to have the day off from university, but something came up so I had to get in at 8:00 nonetheless. Today a classmate called me a quarter to seven in the morning and told me the trains weren't working properly, so I had no time to eat breakfast. I've eaten now, so I feel human again.
But I'm slightly annoyed by the constant auto-playing of videos on YouTube.
How's your day been? _________________
