So there I was riding my bike when this hot chick comes round the corner. "Careful darlin!" I shouted. Imagine my surprise when the extremely fat bloke wobbling on his bike ahead of me starts talking to me. Extremely obese, he also had a personal hygiene problem. God, how he smelled! Guessing he was some kind of IT nerd, I pretended to be Danish so I didn't have to speak to him.

Postings like this remind me why I don't mix with other IT people outside of work.There I was riding my bike, leading the peleton, as I do, when a lady shot out of a junction. I only just missed her and carried on blah blah blah

Careful darlin'
There I was riding my bike, leading the peleton, as I do, when a lady shot out of a junction. I only just missed her and carried on.
A chap behind me shouts "Careful darlin'!"
"Oh", thinks I, "another English type person, I shall say hello."
At the next set of traffic lights I turn and say "That was a near miss hey?"
"Hva' siger du?" comes the reply.
"Sorry, I thought you spoke English."
"Hva'?"
So, did he speak Danish and I just understood it without realising what language he was speaking? Spooky...Tags: None
