    Hello Marina,
    That was very nice of you to make a show and dedicate it to John John. I’m sure he loved it.
    Homework- always tell a friend if they have one hanging out.

    Prediction - next word that will be investigated…..

    “Miley”

    Hmmmm…… interesting….. it’s dangerous to have these psychic powers!

    In the UK, dried nasal mucus is often informally referred to either as “snot” or “bogey” (s) “bogies” (pl).

    Speaking of which, an old childhood wind-up…

    Pick it, lick it, roll it, flick it!

    Probably best not to try that with the camera rolling :)

    My homework for this lesson: YES, I let my friends know when they’re hangin’ wallpaper from the membranes (after I get a picture, that is :twisted: ).

    My word for this lesson is: RHINOLITH scientific-speak for a “nasal concretion.”

    Sorry I missed all the drama. Better for me, though I guess.

    Dear teacher,
    This one was really excellent. Something really original like the halloween one. Sometimes it is always to have these kind of lesson, children questions are the most interesting !
    Is it possible to have the origin of the words beyond and bootleg?

    I got a couple of things. I was wondering where the origin of “roentgenism”. I also have been referred to as a “red headed step-child” and a “ginger” a lot becuase of my hair but I can’t find the origins to those either. Thanks for reading this.

    apologies for ruining your weekend. i didn’t know your mood depends on what is said on this site. i’ll take it into consideration and contemplate the content of my comments prior to posting regarding the question of whether or not my comment will be humble enough to find your approval.
    my inferior state of mind disallows me to even recognize the heights your brain probably floats around in.
    i apparently epically failed in my attempt to impress you, or even meet the standards necessary to not be perceived as a clown by you.
    i do hope, sir, that you will graciously accept my apologies for insulting your intelligence. in awe i bow before your wisdom, oh great master.

    Is there anything that anyone can possibly say here, from one random icon to another, that warrants getting angry about?

    Seriously - melikadothechacha - whatever anyone said to whomever, what’s the difference. We’re all miles away each other and acting under randomly chosen “handles.” I’m not sure what could warrant that post above.

  33. sniperskaya on August 10th, 2008 7:59 pm

    Marina, how did “bugger” come to mean “sodomize” in the British version of English? BTW Marina, did you know that on Youtube they have an ad/banner running over top of your words when they are printed out on the screen making them hard if not impossible to see? I don’t care when “House Bunny” appears in theaters, I want to see your lesson without the ads! Проклятые капиталисты!

    raven62 replied on August 11th, 2008 3:07 am:

    just close the ad as soon as it pops up by clicking the X in the right corner. Then you will be able to see all of the lesson. :???:

  34. Capman911 on August 10th, 2008 7:45 pm

    Why can’t people just leave this alone. RRR you can kiss my ass. And your very right you have pissed me off royally again. One minute your on my side then the next your condemning me. Why you have to keep dredging up something now that is very touchy and a sore subject is beyond me unless it’s your thing in life is to cause problems between people and keep turmoil stirred up on Marina’s site. I told Bob I was going to be cool about the rest of this, but I have taken all I am going to. Every time I read through the comments I find a new comment or thread about what happened yesterday. Marina and myself have made amends so we thought now everything will settle down and be normal. No you are starting another flame war that is going to be the end of me not you. You will continue to harass and belittle these people with you satirical ways. Sorry Bob I can take only so much. And no RRR everyone around me doesn’t have to walk on eggshells. And no RRR I don’t no if I caused Marina to cry or not if I did then I would do anything for it not to of happened. We didn’t discuss that in our e-mails to each other this morning. So I hope you are happy with your self for keeping this going another day and night.

    @ Marina you can edit me out of your video as teachers pet or what ever. As long as people like RRR are on this site then I will not be.

    As you yourself see the pattern in your actions.
    (( MISUNDERSTANDING.))
    You’re a loose cannon, You hurt people that mean you no harm. Your friends for the most part. And then you expect others to understand your feelings.
    Would you slap your Wife and then make Her apologize to you for making you hit Her? That is what you did with Marina.
    She at most was just trying to show others that read the posts here that, She does not think it is funny to mix sex with children. It is Her image that is hurt if people think, Hotforwords LLC. is rude and crude and treat children badly.

    I’ve got no problem with you, You are no threat to Me. Attack Me all you like. I love to fight. No one else here wants to fight with you. They all just want to be your friend and get along. Remember that before you Hit first then apologize……. again. OK?

    okay4now replied on August 11th, 2008 3:46 pm:

    Mike; You’ve got to be kidding…in No Way should you leave now. It’s been clearly stated & resolved the proprietress of this site wrote emphatically that she would be bummed if you left. Just to let you know that when I first read BOTH comments I thought one was a little too risque and the other was too harsh (guess which was which), but I’ve been both on this site with a good chance of repetition. So what? If you leave over this I guaranty some a-hole is standing-by ready to take your place & that is not good for anyone, nor is it good for HFW–and that would (then) truely be something hurtful.

    roadrunrnch replied on August 10th, 2008 8:23 pm:

    OK then I tried to point out that Your a hitter and then apologizing ego maniac. so I can kiss your ass? Does everyone you know tremble when you walk by? I am not one. So stop now. This you being an asshole and me pointing it out. I am not like Bob and I will not placate you and try to calm you down so if it a show down you need, you found another maniac to give it to you. Or you can stop BEING a Bully and admit you are a hot head and over reacted and hurt someone who meant you no ill.
    Your choice friend?

    CaptainJack replied on August 11th, 2008 3:18 am:

    RRR, what part of “water under the bridge” do you not understand? Every thing is just peachy between them. Now you want too keep digging up the dead horse and showing everyone that the horse is dead and searching for someone to blame. Please leave it buried. It wasn’t a real horse anyways. It was a small chocolate covered horse (you know like the chocolate covered bunny you can buy in spring time) that was dropped on to a dirty floor. Thankfully no one was hurt. We where sadden from the loss of good chocolate. Since it was very tasty chocolate (fit for a queen) and we didn’t want anyone get sick from it, we had to give it a proper burial. So let it be just water under the bridge. Don’t utter another word about this chocolate horse. Ok? Thanks. :smile:

    roadrunrnch replied on August 11th, 2008 1:08 pm:

    Well Captjack
    This is not the first time Capman has blown off. He is an abusive man.
    He thrashes out at any little thing and expects others to UNderstand His problem, His temper. It is always His feelings that matter.
    He’s attacked Me on another time for an MISunderstanding and others too. Now, He’s attacked Marina for another misunderstanding and expect Us to understand him……… Again.!!
    NO ………No more it stops now! He is not a nice guy! He is a Bully and the way to treat a Bully is to stand up to him and say NO more…….!!!

    I’ll go away and not say another thing about it fine, But let it be known that I stood up to Him and next time He blows it will be up to YOU to stand up to Him and say .
    NO MORE!!
    NO MORE!!
    ps
    Chocolate horse …..really?? :shock:

    Capman911 replied on August 11th, 2008 1:53 pm:

    RRR I don’t know how you can call me an abusive man and a bully. The misunderstanding you and I had was just that a misunderstanding. I didn’t understand your tone at the time nor did I under stand the format on how you comment to others. The only other misunderstanding I have had with anyone was Argon. I misunderstood that he was making a bad comment towards the people on this site and it was the utube site he was referring to.. I was only taking up for people on the site. How do I thrash out at ever little thing? I think I am a very passive person compared to others that comment on here. If I did make a wrong statement then yes I would apologize for it, I am man enough to admit when I am wrong. I would like to get this resolved between us so it doesn’t keep escalating.

    Capman911 replied on August 11th, 2008 2:39 pm:

    I agree with you. I did not mean to jump Marina. But I did. I can’t take that back. But I tried to show how sorry I was and yes I am a sorry person for doing that to her. In our emails to each other she explained that she thought that would be the proper response to my comment as she said that if we were standing side by side and I made that comment then she would say the same thing and we would both laugh about it. I agree with her response. I see now that she should have never backed down and apologized back to me. I should have been sent an email from her telling me that was not a proper conduct to take. But she has a very big heart as you know. So all I can do now is except the consequences of my behavior and move on so I don’t cause any more problems for her site. Thanks for the chiding we all need to be put in our place now and then. Hot headed yes but I don’t think I am a bully or troublemaker.

    smokey36bear replied on August 10th, 2008 8:53 pm:

    I agree, and i apologize if I’m over stepping my bounds. I think everyone should let it go. What is done is done. This is only between Marina and Capman. All people like RRR, and myself (now) are just riding the coat tails of things that don’t matter anymore.

    When I was just a boy growing up we had a Shetland pony who was mean as thunder that effectively dissuaded my enthusiasm for horses. However later on at our ranch dad bred and raised horses mainly for my sisters to ride we had 5 horses eventually all from the same mare, (including her of course).

    What a downer! No new video today! (Not yet, anyway.) Plus, bad feelings over so small a question as “Why would I think that?” I’m glad things are resolved, now. I hope Marina didn’t get so concerned that she couldn’t edit a video for release, today. I also hope Marina gets better word requests than many of the crude ones, or limited-interest ones that I’ve seen. All I ever asked for was “Sweetheart” and I already looked it up for myself. (Many of you could look up your own words, too.)

    Buzz I have read a lot of your comments. I don’t know what you are taking in school, or what you are aspiring to be “ie lawyer, professor, school teacher or something along that profession, but it is very enlightening to read your comments because I learn something by every one of them. You retain knowledge like a sponge. You and Alx make a lot of sense in the way and how you give your reply’s. I am not kissing arse :lol: I am just giving credit where credit is due.
    PS. Alx wouldn’t let me cry on his shoulder either. :sad:

    CaptainJack replied on August 10th, 2008 8:31 pm:

    If you look her video just made page 2 and is # 39. She’ll post when it gets around somewhere near #24.
    I think its cool that she looks up what you call crude words. You won’t see a normal school teacher look those words up. :shock: She is making video lessons of words no one else has the guts to do. And she does them very eloquently. :cool:
    Yes I look up my own words sometimes too. I even purchase my own books, instead of using the internet all the time. :grin: My most recent purchase was The Oxford Companion To Ships & the Sea - 1976 ED. Worth about $100.00 dollars.

    I don’t know if you have seen, but in earlier posts I have mentioned that my parents have the only set (outside of libraries) in the state of a dictionary that has at least 26 volumes. Sometimes I go to their house and look up stuff just for laughs, yet it still doesn’t compare to the knowedge or enjoyment of learning from of our beloved teacher, Miss. Marina

    CaptainJack replied on August 11th, 2008 7:14 pm:

    Smokey, Wow that must be cool. My dad had this cool collection of encyclopedias which I was always sticking my nose into. Mostly because I was grounded for most of my young life. I remember seeing this illustration of a flying fish. I thought it was fictitious but then one day when I was sailing around the world on the USS Missouri, a flying fish made it to the main deck. I could not believe my eyes. This was the same fish I had research when I was little.
    Yes I enjoy Marina’s lessons. I always waiting for the next one. Its like eating the next meal. It satisfies your hunger for the time being but if you miss one you get very hungry for that next meal. :grin:

  43. gi1gamesh on August 10th, 2008 4:06 pm

    Got a new word to submit. Queue. I know the meaning but where does it come from?

    dictionaricdotcom replied on August 11th, 2008 12:04 am:

    QUEUE is a French word and means TAIL.
    The old-french word was COUE and today a little COUE is a COUETTE meaning differently “bunch of hair” or “quilt”.
    The French QUEUE alias COUE comes from the Latin CAUDA = TAIL

  44. firewalk on August 10th, 2008 4:05 pm

    Hey Marina! I’m love your videos! Russian chicks is HOT :D
    Anyway.. I wanna know where your name comes from :)

    What a yummy topic. Dead boogers provided many a fellow student with an endless source of food, and nutrition. I remember alot of kids that eat their boogers. I like raw boogers the ones that aren’t dried.

    I guess a remnant left over from the time the head mistress of the school took me out of class, and down the hall pulled down my pants and put me over her knee and spanked my bottom with her bare hand , then took me back to class.

  48. Capman911 on August 10th, 2008 2:31 pm

    The misunderstanding between Marina and myself has hopefully been resolved. Like BillyB stated I have a short fuse and I will admit it. I do my best not to let things get under my skin, but I just loose control on occasion. Sometimes I don’t know how to take some of the comments or their meanings that are put to me. Each person here has a different type of humor. Most I understand some I just let slide until the one comes up I take offense at. That happened yesterday and to the one person I never ever wanted to offend, and I did. I said I wasn’t going to apologize for what I said but I am and I hope Marina will accept it. It seems I have been doing this a lot apologizing for one thing or another ever since I joined this group of amazing people. Sorry I can’t help my attitude, but it is a part of me.

    okay4now replied on August 10th, 2008 2:49 pm:

    Compared to mine your fuse is not short at all :wink: Sometimes the wind shifts and I pop. You’re a very decent guy Mike, Marina knows that.

    Bob replied on August 10th, 2008 3:09 pm:

    Glad you’re still here, Mike.
    Remember what I told you before about choice?
    Take some time to reflect on what you have learned today, and WRITE IT DOWN.
    Then, next time you feel like exploding, READ IT before you do anything.
    You’ll find that it will stretch the fuse.
    You CAN change if you want to. :smile:

    Well sorry to disappoint you Bob, but wetsuit has opened his mouth after everything was over with and I am going to fill it with my rebuttal. I am still not quite cooled off and then have him comment to Marina about how she oh never mind.

    Capman
    Given the strong chance of pissing you off again, I too thought about it and it was your short temper and your need to attack first and think later that started all of this. again?. You attacked Marina….and yet She apologizes?
    Does everyone you know walk on egg shells around you. Are you such a hot head that if anyone crosses you you blow off and take no prisoners. lashing out at everyone.
    You OVER reacted and worse you broke Marinas heart and it would not surprise me if you even made Her cry.
    I said I would not be the hitter anymore, but no one else is going to call you on it then as another old war horse I will. Ok :cry: ??

    For the ones of you that are going to call me to the carpet, stop and think , Was He just misunderstood ( like me ) or did he over react.
    And hurt Marina.?
    And I did apologize to Her for being a hitter and a flamer and have I not been much better?. :roll:

    roadrunrnch replied on August 10th, 2008 9:16 pm:

    Thank you buzzy
    I was trying to be nicer and sweeter and for me that was, I thought. But for you to notice that I was softer and not just being a flame thrower is good….right?

    buzzword replied on August 10th, 2008 3:23 pm:

    this issue has not been resolved. i think the source of this problem is this john john kid, little shit, he is obviously a trouble maker and should be placed in time out immediately for causing so much trouble.

    Marina replied on August 10th, 2008 3:36 pm:

    No need to apologize Capman911! What’s funny is that I recorded your name in a teacher’s pet clip after the event… so I really hadn’t thought anything of it until I later realized there had been some misinterpretations going on!

    So.. it’s water under the bridge (hmm.. wonder where that expression comes from?).. and keep an eye out for yourself as my teacher’s pet in an upcoming video :-)
