Merry Christmas your text here

No tex until merry!

The green area is already full of silly text so I’ll just write my text here and call it a caption.

I promise I’ll have a tex later.

Here is your Texas-sized space for your text.

You can send greetings on any pre-text at all.

Looks like a good place to indulge one’s textual fantasies.

Well, you shoulda seen that one a-comin’, Text!

”I would put a tex … on all people … who Happy New Year!”

Hehe. Languages and linguistics are a hobby of mine. (esp. Ethnology)

Keeps this old brian flexible, if only slightly dyslexic. :;):

😉

:facepalm: I wanted Haberdashery, not the text aisle!

@Marum | 9:24 am: Who is old Brian, and why are you flexing him? 😛

First it was Noel and now it’s no T.

Have a Merry Text here.

New year written here

Your text must be in the form of a claus.

Gimme a T!
Gimme a E!
Gimme an X!

These banners couldn’t get much verse

But!! I don’t have any text.

I just write what I wants.

I dont even think I would wipe my bum, on something of this TEXTure.

Late at night,
The screen shines bright,
Deep in the heart of Textas…

Q: What is “Sells Tex”?

A: It’s Yiddish for “sales tax”.

@Pete above.

Bugger the Sales-tex. Just send us the ganz megillah.

Doesn’t matter, had tex.

@Marum 8:05,

I (virtually) shout you a chilly one for yer cultural acumen, mate!

Forget the tex. If anybody wants me, I’ll be at the poo hall.

@Pete 0009.

I find Yiddish words similar to Deutsch.
ie.
I was listening to a song a few years ago. Mein Schwester Schrien. (My Sister Cries) During the course of the song, I was thinking; Mein Gott im Himmel, my German is worse than I thought it was, I can hear the words, but at singing speed, I can’t quite understand them. At the end of the song, the announcer supplied the key.

The song was in Yiddish.

@DNT. Did you notice that when they dusted this one off and re-posted it.

They left a few of our comments.

@Marum | 4:46 am: I did. That often happens when they recycle. Jeez! 5 years ago? Time flies when you’re having fun.

@Marum,

I read recently that Yiddish and German diverged from each other around the same time that Chaucer wrote Canterbury Tales.

I hear there is a degree of mutual intelligibility between the two but not fully.

@Pete – The deux et machina – got me again.

BTW The reference is – in case you are not into Spoonerisms: “A knight in shining armour.”

Don’t mess with Text.

Suppose it’s better than going down your hole.

That’s the biscuit.

Please insert merry.

Hellmark cards are the best!

Hairy Textmas and a Harpy New Yeast!

I always look forward to when Sample Claus comes to my house and leaves placeholders in my stocking.
