Oh you big baby. If you can't stand the heat get out of the kitchen.

Sorry, that's not how discussions on Internet forums should work. I know that because I had plenty of productive discussions on various Internet forums. The fact that you haven't tells us much more about you than about how Internet forums work.

It happens a lot. For instance, the American city of Boston, Massachusetts is named after the Boston Cream Pie. Early European settlers in the area found the pies growing wild and - after several dozen generations of selective breeding - cultivated the cake/custard/chocolate confection known the world over. To this day, you can visit the area in springtime and see hectare after hectare of young Boston Cream Pie seedlings waving majestically in the breeze.

Don’t even get me started on Licorice, Brazil.

I'm sorry, I must have somehow missed the forums for boring ass fuckwads in my travels that you apparently have specialized in. My apologies.

It seeems to me that you are implying "I can't stand other people on this forum having intellectual discussions.", and I genuinely hope I am wrong.

Do you have a reading comprehension problem?  I didn't mention your video in Croation.  Who here has been following your videos on anything?

Right, and I was saying this thread was not about any of my videos. It's about my research. Actual research published in peer-reviewed journals. It seems to me you cannot read, rather than me.

Nobody is having an intellectual discussion with you. You seem to have mistaken mocking your ineptitude for something it isn't.

What have you accomplished in life to have a right to call me "inept"? I have published papers in peer-reviewed journals, and this one combining information theory and linguistics is of rather high quality.
