I got my nails painted for the first time today

And by two girls together, no less.

This is how it always happens, in my experience.

Today I learned that vader is Dutch for father.  As in, Darth Vader.

Which brings the question : how the hell did people not figure this out back then ? Well maybe they did ? I mean anyone speaking Dutch or German (Vater) should have seen it coming.

pronounced differently. "Both the Dutch 'vader' and the German 'Vater' are pronounced with the 'a' as in 'far', instead of the 'a' as in 'later'."

also the V is more prounounced like in "father" instead like in "Vader". (at least in German, not sure about the Dutch. I would guess it's a bit inbetween for Dutch)

It sounds like F in Heidevolk songs.

Well I don't know how the German dub of the movie pronounced it, but if you're German, don't speak English and read "Darth Vader" you'll read it as (phonetically) "Fader", which sounds a lot like "Vater".

But it's entirely possible the German dub used a different name I guess. In France, he's called Dark Vador, for some reason.

[SirPeebles]

Even if he were called Dark Father, it still wouldn't necessarily imply that he is Luke's father.  It could have just been his title in the old religion or within the imperial forces.

It's the same as in the original, with same pronounciation...
:e except that Obi Wan has some problems with the th and calls him Dars...

I've had my nails painted by girls like... A half time? I usually paint them myself. I've been painting my nails for more than a year now.

[eHalcyon]

Do you need a special hammer so as not to damage the painted nails, or do you only paint nails after they've been hammered in?

I'm sure a lot of mothers have svelte figures. And even if they don't, calling them names isn't nice.
