smi(&% Yeah...that is how rumors get started rof/% .
PS. In Dutch, there is an adage I learned in school: "Hij heeft de klok hooren luiden, maar weet niet waar de klepel hangt." (Roughly literal translation: "He did hear the sound of the bell, but doesn't know where the clapper hangs.") 😉
EDIT: I want to add a bit of jocosity to this somber thread...
I was︀ dating this girl from Latin America (late 90s) and was on the phone telling someone:︁ "Give me a few hours. My monitor just broke."
Later, I overhear her telling her︂ mom (in their language) on the phone: "Jafo's mother just gave birth, and she's almost︃ 80. rof/% "
I went up to her and asked where she got that info from,︄ and she said: "I heard you telling someone: My mother gave birth."
I told her,︅ in her language, I said: "My monitor just broke."
We busted out laughing because her︆ English was atrocious. rof/% rof/% rof/%
By the time we corrected her mom, the whole town back home︇ was discussing how a British/French elderly woman of almost 80 years old had just given︈ birth! That's how rumors get started. rof/% smi(&%
