You know you've been in Lithuania for too long when...
You only eat in restaurant-chains, which start with Čili
You put ketchup on your pizza and think that's the way Italians do it
Half of your friends disappear to work in the British Isles or Scandinavia or the United States and you think that's normal
You have become tired of explaining to your friends and relatives at home, that you are a.) not in Latvia b.) not in Russia and c.) Riga isn't the capital of the Baltic
With a meal you drink either beer or tea
Basketball has become the most important thing in your life
There is only one beer for you: Švyturys Extra
Half of the population working as "managers" seems reasonable to you
Tall blonde beauties in short skirts are nothing special for you anymore
During winter, instead of looking for a thermostat to adjust the temperature in your room, you just open the window
You learned everything about the glorious Lithuanian language, and now you get angry about ignorant people denying the existence of a Lithuanian language or, worse, consider it some branch of Slavic languages
You've learned the hard way that a triangle means women's toilet and a triangle upside down means men's
During a long night of partying you went out pissing in the cold streets because there was only one unisex toilet in the whole pub
You think drunkards shouting at you in Russian are a normal part of life
When you enter a bus and there is no strange smell you think there's something wrong
Buses without antennae seem awkward to you
Anything goes wrong you blame the Russians, or the Polish or the rest of the world
You think hot chocolate means melted chocolate and you love it
You see someone smiling in public, you think: well, a bloody foreigner
A meal for you must contain either potato or meat, but usually both
You start leaving out the articles, even in English and your native language
You become scared meeting big old babushkas in furs, because they trample down everything in their way
You are afraid crossing a street, especially at zebra crossings or traffic lights
You feel guilty entering a flat wearing your shoes
You consider cranberry the best flavor for water, juice and vodka
You think beer is a soft drink not an alcoholic beverage, only vodka is
Going to the opera, the concert hall or the theatre is just a usual thing to do in the evenings
Forenames like Christmas' tree, mermaid, amber or wind seem normal to you
Everything 50m above sea-level seems like a mountain
You start counting the ground floor as first floor
Someone, you haven't known for more than three years, talks to you, you try to get rid of him as soon as possible
You got a one centimeter haircut, bought a fake leather jacket and a black cap (if you are male) OR: you bought a skirt at the size of a belt and don't leave the house without tons of make-up (if you are female)
You consider smoked pig's ears a tasty beer snack
You love the Baltic Sea and go swimming there at nearly any temperature
You love going to the Sauna, but always leave your trunks/bikini on
For you, garlic has become an ingredient just like salt or pepper
You consider Lithuania the best and worst place on earth at the same time
You teach everybody that in medieval times the Lithuanian Duchy ranged from the Baltic to the Black Sea
You put an "as", "a" or "is" at the end of foreign names, so you can conjugate them
You carry around five cell phones and several cards from eight different phone-companies, so that you always get the best price.
You consider fastening your seatbelt a sign of weakness and are not surprised if a car hasn't seatbelts at all.
In your eyes Coca Cola is the unhealthiest drink in the world and that drinking lots of beer, sugary juice and bread drink prolongs your life
You haven't seen a bright sky for months and you don't miss it anymore
You consider rain the normality and sunshine a special weather phenomenon
Thanks, Laima!

Perfect advice for linux noobs
<dm> I discovered that you'd never get an answer to a problem from Linux Gurus by asking. You have to troll in order for someone to help you with a Linux problem.
<dm> For example, I didn't know how to find files by contents and the man pages were way too confusing. What did I do? I knew from experience that if I just asked, I'd be told to read the man pages even though it was too hard for me.
<dm> Instead, I did what works. Trolling. By stating that Linux sucked because it was so hard to find a file compared to Windows, I got every self-described Linux Guru around the world coming to my aid. They gave me examples after examples of different ways to do it. All this in order to prove to everyone that Linux was better.
* ion has quit IRC (Ping timeout)
<dm> brings a tear to my eye... :') so true..
<dm> So if you're starting out Linux, I advise you to use the same method as I did to get help. Start the sentence with "Linux is gay because it can't do XXX like Windows can". You will have PhDs running to tell you how to solve your problems.
<dm> this person must be a kindred spirit of mine

Dig the press
Dig the press
Nowadays it is very difficult to find something, which shows common sense. I have no idea why it is happening - it looks like it is just not popular to be smart, probably because we just like to follow leaders.
This one I have found in the Prague Post, when flying back from Marseilles:
"CARTOONS Danish cartoons of the prophet Mohammed have appeared on posters in Prague and Brno, ČTK reported May 31. The Czech Muslim community has ignored the cartoons, saying their portrayal of Mohammed is wrong, but that they are not worth commenting upon."
http://www.praguepost.com/sections/2008/06/04/news/
Looks like environment forces people to change (muslims in cz), on the other hand here is an opposite example:
"Rated R
All I can say about the “Sexism?” exhibit at Galery Václava Špály on Národní street is — God help the Czech Republic and its people (“Rated R,” Night & Day, May 21–27). What a new low this has reached. Can you not see the depravity of this? Are we not close to mimicking the Roman Empire in its final days?When my children are in Prague, I will make sure they do not walk down this street. How is one supposed to raise moral children in this Satanic culture? Is it any wonder that Islamic fanatics hate the West?"
http://www.praguepost.com/articles/2008/06/04/letters-to-the-editor.php
Naturally, it came from Texas.
And some sad news:
"Australia’s James Squire Pilsner and Oregon’s Hopworks Urban Brewery Lager won the gold and silver awards, respectively, for their pilsner beers at the competition, which was held in late April. Coming in third was Gambrinus Premium, brewed by Plzeňský Prazdroj, the legendary Czech brewery that first invented the pilsner style of beer in 1842."

France, Marseilles, La Ciota, The Police
The devil plays interesting games - I am already second day in La Ciota, having some kind of job related workshops. As side story - the plane has been late, we have missed exit on the highway to La Ciota and other general stuff.
Other strange chain of events - I have been in The Police concert yesterday, which has been pretty good fun - screaming teenagers with wet pants, sound quality excellent and around 50k people singing along some words, which Marseilles french.
Before going to the concert we had a lecture in the metro about french and Marseilles french (correct, incorrect), wondered why there are french street names in the city, where almost everyone speaks arabic and have bought 3 beers for 11 euros, which is kind of strange amount, considering, that the price on the price list has been 3 euros per 0.33l heineken can. Oh well, I will earn those few euros in two years, thanks to this post and Google ads.
Will post some photos later, after I will process pictures.
