Omg is the last panel a reference to this meme? https://i.imgur.com/X2h3939.jpg

@Aybecee Oh my...I've seen that before. Thanks for refreshing my memory.

poor Scotland. he just wants to be part of EU

I drew Denmark as a mermaid! He's sad because he can't drink properly underwater.

@Aybecee XD That's so cute and funny!! I love it! ^^

@Lumoseo I'm glad you liked it!

@Aybecee This is pretty good actually

@Zeust Thank you so much!

@Aybecee (Dammit, I already upvoted this!)

@IsaIna Haha, thanks for the upvote!

@Aybecee
Jings, I thought Humon drew this! Well done!

@britney_spears_fan_6 Aww, thank you so much!

Aww, Denmark in the second panel looks so cute. I just want to snuggle him.

@Aybecee I think he would be very happy about that

Mugs with the characters on them!

When is it NOT normal to see someone smoke (aside from designated non-smoking areas)? I'm genuinely surprised.

I would also love the idea of having the SatW characters as plushies!

@Aybecee Same here!

This would be a hilarious comic! I love it!

I would love to buy this as a pin (or T-shirt design or mug)!

@Aybecee A pin wouldn't include the grass because it has to be made in one piece, but yeah

When I saw the flag, my first thought was that the character should have 3 legs too. Just for the hell of it.

@Aybecee
That is brilliant! XD He should wear the golden spurs as well.

Omg LOL

I'm very new towards animation but I had enough spare time to whip up this short video just before Christmas! It's only 10 seconds long but it took me two entire days to make! I still have much to learn about animation.

Also, please be gentle. This is my first time ever making one of my animations public. :P

(I ship Finland and Estonia. Apologies if you disagree. )

This is so cute.

I love how the lag causes the hosts and announcers to interrupt each other. This will never get old.

I'm surprised Australia's song is so high. I really didn't like it.

@Aybecee
And the (imo) better Australian singer only got 20th place. Wow.

This is a really cute comic.

Granted, you get stuff. But you get so much stuff that all the stuff that exists falls onto you.

I wish that I had pizza.

The title says it all! Post a fun fact here.

I'll start with this:
"English used to have different informal and formal versions of "you". "You" was formal and "thou" was its informal equivalent. Over time, the language evolved and everyone decided to be polite and we ended up with "you" being used in both informal/formal situations."

@Aybecee

Proof? It was probably passed down from the Norman conquest, but is that the reason thou isn't seen anymore?

Researching runes, another reason thou fell out of use could be because the letter thorn (þ), which represented 'th' as is still used in Ísland, was similar to (y) in handwritten script. When the printing press came, (y) was used in place of (þ) in some words such as 'þe' and 'þou', but that explanation of yours could be part of it.

I've always liked the concept of the English alphabet being spelled phonetically. Isn't it a bit strange that, unlike other languages, English letters don't always sound exactly like their name? There's long forms and short forms.

@Aybecee In Dutch all vowels are said in the alphabet like their long forms too, and every vowel has a short form.
"Aa bee cee..." would be the Dutch equivalent.

Sure why not? Here's what I sound like: http://vocaroo.com/i/s0cyVAGRyqc6
I've been told that I sound monotone when I talk. I have no idea if it shows in the audio recording or not.

@Aybecee Oh wow! Your English is really good and your accent is really clear, I would have never guessed English wasn't your first language!
Also your accent sounds really nice. If I had one like that I'd never stop talking.

@raikou107 I think English is her first language Australians usually learn English first

@IsaIna She said in the clip that English wasn't her first language.

@raikou107 Oh, okay.
I'm just gonna blame everything on the fact that it's hard to understand English.

@raikou107 Aw, thanks! Haha, it would've been an Australian accent since most of my exposure to English is from other Australians.

@IsaIna Even though I'm Australian, I grew up in a non-English speaking household, so English wasn't my first. XD

@Aybecee Cool. If you don't mind me asking, what is your first language?

@raikou107 Teochew: it's a Chinese dialect that nobody speaks, haha.

@Aybecee Sounds interesting, though.

@Aybecee You sound Australian to me, maybe with a bit of shade on the vowels, but I wouldn't have noticed that at all if I weren't listening for it.

@uktana shaded vowels. I think I understand what you mean but I still want to point that phrase out.

@uktana Yup, I'm from Australia! It's pretty interesting that you say that you would've have noticed if you weren't listening for it. That's news to me.

@Aybecee I meant, I could tell you're Australian, but wouldn't have thought that English was not your first language. Even hearing a slight variation of the vowels (which is what I listened especially for), I would have thought it was just a local accent.

@uktana Ah I see. I'm still glad about that!

Pure-bread cat

Granted, but you get so productive and do everything all at once before dying of exhaustion.

I wish that my phone always has full battery so I don't have to worry about charging it.

Can guess emotions

The person above me has farted in the past day.

The person below me is correct. I am unfortunately unable to sleep-forum-browse.

Banned for not looking smug enough

Banned for not third-guessing yourself.

This reminds me of a very interesting documentary about luck called "The Secret Of Luck" by Derren Brown. I highly recommend it if anyone is looking for about an hour to kill. I'm sure you can find it for free somewhere online. If I recall correctly, it talks about how people seem to experience different types of luck and how it influences their lives.

With that said, I say that I'm a lucky person. The circumstances surrounding my childhood could have been a lot worse. I have since learnt (or am trying to) appreciate what I have.
