Dude! That is so politically incorrect! It's mentally challenged!


Dude! That is so politically incorrect! Mentally challenged implies inferiority! The proper term is beautiful, creative, unique people! You're gonna get sued someday.

I remember, with great fondness, when woodshover was 800. But now after breaking 1000, woodshover is no longer a person, just another calculating machine.Frown

Based on what I've seen here, I blame the teacher.

Dude, thank you so much for saying that. I had the same exact thing on my mind but there were a bunch of scruples in the way.

 "Stupid website?" Please don't claim you're a teacher and call this awesome collection of chess teaching tools a "stupid website".

You're a real teacher though, zingrat is a 13 year old who is trolling as a teacher on the internets.

Seems that Wombats are very popular here, but before today I had never heard about this animal.

I tried to translate it with google and it didn't work.

So I went to wikipedia. It is weird that the Portuguese article was titled Vombatidae and the name of the animal is never mentioned (Vombatidae is the Wombats family)

The article Common Wombat is titled Vombatus ursinus in Portuguese Wikipedia and, again, no vulgar name is given, only cientific Latin.

I guess we don't even have a name for them!
