As a non native speaker of English.. I must say.. Uhh what?
What's tranny weather? Is it like that song about men falling from the sky in a orderly fashion so as to make girls happy?

"Whether" vs "weather". We have a vast amount of uneducated people in our country, who sell stuff and can't construct a sentence or spell.

I did understand it, I was making a joke :)
I should perhaps have made a note of that or something at the end. Sorry..
PS: I'm not making fun of people with dyslexia and/or dysgraphia, I've got a few problems with them letters myself. But this thing had me laughing out loud like nobodys business.

Did not mean to step on your toes, Laird. You told me you were Scandinavian(?) and was I not sure. These people are mostly just real people who are not very intelligent. Proof: "Selling a Camero (sp) that needs a batterie", does not run right and assuming that every person who reads the ad will think it is correct. Gotta love that.

Nah, don't worry about stepping on my toes mate, I'm not easily offended (as long as people don't start acting like a motherfriggin' racist or something that is). But for the love of GOD would you "guise" stop calling me Laird :P Laird is a/the Scottish proximally for the word Lord.. My name is Anders (or Andy here on oppo/jalopnik) :)
Damn it, I went off on a tanget there.. As I said, there's hardly anything any of you here on Oppo could do or say that would get me offended or angry.

Did not know that. I kinda figured that your name was "Andy or Anders, as you say"
Tangents are a way for Oppos to probe your inner self.
Now, why the Scottish? I thought you told me your language was something Scandinavian. I am assuming now you are of Scottish descent and living or raised in another area?
Just remember:
You'll be sorrrrry.....This is a land where things are not as they seem and before you realize there is no escape, you are trapped ...This, my friends, is the OPPO ZONE.
Welcome.
My standard welcome to new Oppos, but somewhat appropo for this conversation.

I've got no Scottish ancestry as far as I know, I'm 1/8 Finnish though.
The reason for the whole Laird thing is rather silly, I bought a plot in Scotland, and that gives me the "right" to use the title Laird.. I say "right" because the whole thing is a scam, but I got some cool stickers, a diploma and a card that says I'm a Laird.. and frankly it was worth the 50 bucks it cost me (yes, I KNEW it was a scam). I do love Scotland, perhaps more than I love my own country, so I guess that's the main reason as to why I use a Scottish username here.
And yes, that's my real name, I don't care if people here know it, a few already do. :)
As for the last part (the one about oppo zone, I've told a few new oppos something along those lines myself ;)
Edit: and yes, I'm Scandinavian, from Norway.

Not sure if it's cool to be honest, but it is what it is. And I've got a rather amiable personality, so I don't really mind if people know stuff about me or not. If anyone here wanted to use what I tell about myself in a bad setting they could do that without me telling people my name ;)
Anywho, take care mate.. I just found a Doctor Who special I haven't seen yet.

Don't think you have to worry about malicious behavior from Oppos. Many, including myself, have exposed little secrets.

I'm not worried at all, many of us know a lot about .. uhh.. many of us, if that makes any sense, and it's not like I'll have a crazy fan showing up on my doorstep or anything :P The only other Oppo I know for sure that live in my area is Hoccy, and I know his name as well :P

Unless Chevy defied convention, it's on the back of the car, and maybe the dash, too.

I've always had a thing for the early 80's Camaros. Where's this puppy located?
