I’ve listened to the original audio, and in my opinion that is how it comes across in Swedish, perhaps more clearly than in the translation. Obviously I have no idea what actually happened, but it sounds as if what he’s apologizing for is (as he presents it) having had sex with her while not reciprocating her…

I dunno. Judging solely from that translation, it could easily be spun as him saying “I’m sorry I gave you the wrong idea about what our relationship was going to be.”

It’s your usual slip of common sense.

Every time an article like this comes up talking about “remember when we were all so confused about how the WiiU worked?” I can’t help but be a little annoyed. I never bought a WiiU because I didn’t really care for it, but not for one minute was I ever confused about what it was. “New Nintendo system with HD…

How I know you actually played the game:

After handling a 3 year old all day, your energy for grandstanding about protesting fast food protests is rather diminished.

“When my dragons are grown we will take back what was stolen from me. We will lay waste to armies and burn cities to the ground.”

Presumably they finished everything Anthem had to offer in three days instead of a month.

Affleck and Hemsworth as the rebooted dark Nolan-style Bluntman & Chronic.

Ummm, no. That's like saying Singles is the movie that introduced the world to grunge. In fact, by 1998 electronic music had already come and gone as a potential Next Big Thing after grunge. I peg 1997 as the year that it came closest to being fully mainstream, only to go back underground again for another 10…
