nadsat, methinks

Anthony Burgess came up with nadsat by speaking imaginarily, methinks. Oh, TIL that Rudyard Kipling used methinks as a word in a science fictional advertisement for a Standard Dig [Dirigible] Construction Co., in his Aerial Board of Control bulletin.

Since this thought was longer than a tweet and I don't yet trust the prevalent threading fashion (pun intended), I thought I'll creak open the blog's attic door.

That's all for now, or as Looney Tunes ends, That's All, Folks!

Well Played, India!

:) I thought it was going to be over in the previous over... On an unrelated note, while the video uploads: Breaking Bad is awesome! I Alt-Right through the longer conversations, and see through some of Aaron Paul's melodrama, but hey, it's good entertainment. Can't wait for Season Four.
