Your powers of observation SUCK. All of you.
Brian is a Norwegian, and English is his second language. Just because he's
not familiar with all the colloquialisms you know doesn't mean he's young or
immature. You knew that, but never figured it out. Why not?
If you keep on "analyzing" Brian, you'll undoubtedly confuse yourselves so
much that you can't ever recover (which seems to be the ordinary state for
feminazis, eh?).
