OMG man, she's a pegasus.

I mean... so I've heard.

Please don't give her airs.
We don't want to encourage her any more than is necessary.

Well at least they did not say what RGB value ?

I bought 5 out 7 what's missing is pink (Who the hell wants that???) and red. (later)
What can be interesting, is some metallic hue, like silver, gold, and so on.
What i use? Cyan, or Green.

Talking about ship painting? How about iridescent? Not my kind of pimping the ride, but still... It's looks nice.

wow ... did i really write that!.... blame it on lack of coffee...... of course i meant English.... Though if we are being pedants, would it not technically be British English ?

(As opposed to American English)?

No, it'd be Correct English, or just English. If it were British, then it'd be Welsh, Gaelic or Cornish, not English.

 

[Minonian]

Uhhhhmmmm... Wait... This is a grammar nancy thread? [woah]

(runs away yelling)

To be fair the yanks have the best coffee.

Compared to whom? I'd say the Italians have the best coffee. American coffee tastes crap even compared to British... Though since I never touch instant and grind my beans fresh I may have a different point of comparison to you.

Bit off topic for dangerous discussion forum?

Frontier are just doing what they do best - misspelling things.

Still not forgiven them for claiming in the newsletter that astrologers at NASA found a bunch of ELW's...........

Quite so, it was Belgians... Not sure if they were astrologers either, though in this case I refuse to speculate since the stars were not right... There was one Murrikan with them, so of course it was claimed as a Murrikan discovery.

I like discussions about language differences. Colour me intrigued.

The problem for me is all the tiles (icons) colours in Livery are wrong. The selections say "Blue, green..." but the image of the beams, on the icon, will be a different colour - red on blue, green on purple, etc

Say's the Blue Unicorn.............

OI! That's Rainbow Dash! Have some respect!

Actually, they have some impressive brews - some of them, do actually know what they are doing.. I've sampled some excellent stuff in New York (Cafe Grumpy is a personal favourite, as is Stumptown), San Francisco (Sightglass is one I'm liking right now), and even Salt Lake City (though forgot the name of that place).

The difference is, over there you have to search for someone who does it good, while over here you need to search for someone who does it bad [yesnod]

More seriously, I'm pretty sure anyone with the right machinery and the right set of skills can make a good coffee about anywhere in the world. Until it stays confined in a small cup size, that is.

And to add insult to injury, they are going to open Starbucks shops in Milan and Turin in the coming months...we just need to import Domino's to Naples, then we're done.
