Goddam strange accents
« on: December 10, 2014, 11:06:44 AM »
I've been reading a bit about Nassim Taleeb thanks to some getbiggers recomendations.  Someone mentioned Youtube vids of his seminars.  Checked it out.  Couldn't understand one fucking thing he was saying due to his accent  >:(

Can you be racist against a person that does not lift? I think it is expected that they be hated.

No lifting at LEAST 3 times a week, no listen.

AHAHAHA

I have one of those guys over at my section.

He's always talking about his "wee lad". Took me a couple of days to realise he meant his son and not his donger. ;D
I always just grin and nod, I can't make out even 25% of what he says so I usually wait until he puts his thoughts down on paper and then reads his memos.

Also, had a summer internship in London some years ago, 3 out of 5 guys were Scottish. Most hilarious summer I've ever had. They sure knew how to drink.
