what is a lorry?
lorrie?
is it a car?
what is a boot when relating to a car? why does it rattle?
why are books written by the english so fucking hard for americans to read, if only because most of the plot is based around lorrys and boots, and why don't i know what they are?

it's no english – tis german.
it means a rattling old car that nazis used to drive. made from metal and flesh, kind of like an android car.

dirk gentlys holistic detective agency good choice,now,if you haven't already,go get The Long Dark Tea-Time of the Soul...(when a passenger check-in desk at Terminal Two, Heathrow Airport, shot up through the roof engulfed in a ball of orange flame the usual people tried to claim responsibility. First the IRA, then the PLO and the Gas Board...)

We english invented the language, we will make it as hard for foreigners to understand as we want!

I can't be bothered reading past the first thread but what I can say is thus:
Lorry = What you americans call a 'Truck'
Boot = Either a big clumpy shoe or the storage space at the back of a car, what you americans call 'automobile'
Hope that helps!?

yes, i just read long dark tea time for the soul, which was better than the first one.
and no, it doesn't help, because there were no lorries and or boots in this book, but there were other words, words i don't understand, and what the fuck is with you people and tea, do you really drink tea everyday? why? it's gross.
i will never understand, i will never understand.
i have got to go find out, but one of the conditions of this was that you english people spoke the same language as me, but now i find out you don't, and ruiniing me!!!! do you hear me fuckers!!!! RUINING ME!!!!!!!

why? why is that the slur?
that's not bad,i like limes, why couldn't it be something more obtrusive?
also, what is the stereotypical thing for the limeys? asians can't drive, blacks are stupid, mexi's are dirty, what's an englishman?

yes, well that does it, that is probably a silly thing, like being stupid, dirty, or driving poorly, nothing makes an american mad like a soccer fan.
