Just read in an email, send to me by bol.com (a company that merely sells stuff via internet), that my order was cancelled for some stupid reason.

Well, okay..  :santa:

Had an email like that yesterday, only part of my order was cancelled though.

Last year, they cancelled an order weeks after I had placed it, told me it was impossible to obtain. Found it later at the Free Record Shop, also online, for an even lower price.

^ They said I had to order again and pay upfront. Come again? I've ordered books and other stuff there before and paying after I've got the products (home) wasn't a problem then. Now it is, for some reason and..

Well, wrote a short email (basically) saying.. 'Do you lot (= :tard: ) want to sell me the phone or not?'

Swedish å=creek is cognate with Latin aqua. They supposedly stem from a Proto-Indo-European verb *h₂ekʷeh₂=to drink.

The Kingston Trio:

They're starving in Spain,
The French hate the Yugoslavs,
And Texas needs rain."

Things don't change much in 50 years.
A good monarch is a treasure. A good politician is an oxymoron.

My brain is both uninhibited and uninhabited.

Well, Yugoslavia is gone.  The rest seems pretty much the same.

Yugoslavs are dregs, although they're a bit brave at the same time, because they don't give a damn about nonsense like gunlaws.

Which country are you talking about?  All former Yugoslavian nations?

Mostly those in the south. Slovenia and Croatia are a bit brave too, but they are more like western European countries nevertheless.
