It should be like this:

"I know that I know nothing" ("Viem, že nič neviem") in Slovak language :P

I still remember it since my school days (about 15 years ago).

Googled a bit scrapsers phrase and found this

He who knows not, and knows not that he knows not, is a fool - shun him.

Jeez......

I just took a quick look (I don't want to spend the time to read all that).

But it looks almost as silly as a political debate.

You strike me as a charming fellow.

Pity, that I have placed my lot here.

What's the squirrel thing all about

I didn't get the memo.

"So what thread was locked?" I asked myself.

A quick scroll down. "ahhh, a thread about depth, how on earth did THAT erupt into drama?" I wondered.

Clicking on the thread, i pondered, "What kind of drama could possibly transpire over this subject to have become a flaming thread?"

So i backed up, started where I had posted, and scrolled through.

"Hmmmm, look at that user name, ahh yes, he's a bit of an Adam Henry", i said to myself. "Lets scroll down and see how bad this got".

*click*.. "hmmm, ummm", i said.

*click*.. "ummm, hmmm, there he is again.", I uttered.

*click*.. "Yup, wow, what a chip on the shoulder, and he's already proclaiming some sort of 'victory', Geez.", I observed.

*click*. "Oh good god, How much of this can i read?" I pondered. I then found myself uttering, "figures this guy is at the center of all of this."

*click* /facepalm

Goddammit Ducimus, guess I have to go read it too now.

raymond6751 · 08-23-10, 02:24 PM

I too could not believe a simple thing like depth control could spark a thread closure. Duh. Shame.

This used to be a helpful, polite, friendly forum.

Holy batnuts, batman! How could've I missed that! Pure gold right there!

Reminds me of an ooold thread in WWIIOL forums where everyone kept convincing this one guy that rudder is in fact an fake wing or an ice breaker.

Bollocks to that. Everyone knows that rudders only work with the absence of pressure. Otherwise you couldn't turn them at all...

LMAO!

Wow such dramma. So much so it compelled a 'new' thread to re-hash the previous drama.

Amazing.

I am pretty sure i realized what you said with the quote before.

However, i was unable to say that sentence. English is not my native language, so please bear that in mind when i say it is a tongue-twister (for me).
