Answer 8

Creo que tengo un carácter juguetón, pero este juego me parece un poco inútil y aburrido.

I think I have got a playful character, but this game seems a bit pointless and boring to me.

Porcu, we would say: I think I've got / I think I have got etc...(Of course your mistake may just be a typo! lol) - FELIZ77, Dec 7, 2015

Sí. ;) - jrschenk, Dec 7, 2015

Have another rum and coke and the boredom will sort of dissolve.. - annierats, Dec 7, 2015

Answer 9

Un parecer de cómo el mundo sería si los efectos cuánticos dominaran en la escala en la que nosotros percibimos cosas- las cosas simplemente aparecerían y desaparecían al azar.

One view of how the world would be if quantum effects were to dominate on the scale in which we perceive things- things would simply appear and disappear at random.

Could we make the terrorists disappear? That would be wonderful! lol - FELIZ77, Dec 7, 2015

Unfortunately they would just pop up somewhere else. Which does seem to be what happens anyway, doesn't it. - bosquederoble, Dec 7, 2015

disappear forever, I mean! - FELIZ77, Dec 7, 2015

Perhaps they could pop up and fall into a sink hole somewhere, into a live volcano or better still a black hole! - FELIZ77, Dec 7, 2015

My cats seem to.. - annierats, Dec 7, 2015

Wow. ;) - jrschenk, Dec 7, 2015

:) - Pablo064, Dec 8, 2015

Gracias, Pablo. :) - bosquederoble, Dec 8, 2015

Answer 10

It's the real thing... no it's not, yes it is, no, it's not....

Es la cosa real... no, no lo es.... sí lo es... , no, no lo es.

Very droll doll . - ray76, Dec 8, 2015

What he said. ;) - jrschenk, Dec 8, 2015

:) - Dogboy1000, Dec 8, 2015

Answer 11

Esta debe de ser una de las pre-1903 Coca Colas, las que contenían una cantidad significativa de extracto de hoja de la coca, es decir cocaína.

This must be one of those pre-1903 Coca Colas, the ones that contained a significant amount of extract of coca leaf, i.e., cocaine.

Claro, ahora caigo. - annierats, Dec 7, 2015

In the English- coca leaf, you have it in the Spanish- coca cola= extract of coca leaf and kola nut- a combination of cocaine and caffeine in the original version. :) - bosquederoble, Dec 7, 2015

You're right. I realized my mistake before I posted and changed it in the Spanish but forgot to fix the English. - AnnRon, Dec 7, 2015

Bosque , a lethal combination ..no wonder they banned the origanal version - FELIZ77, Dec 8, 2015

..las CocaColas pre 1903, las que..de la hoja de coca.. :) - Pablo064, Dec 8, 2015

Pablo, I was thinking "refresco" so made it masculine. Does the brand name carry a feminine gender? - AnnRon, Dec 8, 2015

yes it is 'La cocacola' feminine so you have to agree with it unless you say 'el refresco or el refresco de cola or el refresco marca CocaCola' :D - Pablo064, Dec 8, 2015

but in common speech we just say 'la coca' - Pablo064, Dec 8, 2015

Gracias Pablo. - AnnRon, Dec 8, 2015

Answer 12

Person in picture is talking to his best friend, Max: "I swear to you, I was only drinking coke (Coca-Cola) ...nothing stronger! Yet, (however) my eyes seem to be playing tricks on me ...unless this bottle is jinxed!"

Con correcciones:

La persona de la foto está hablando con su mejor amigo, Max: << Te juro que sólo estaba bebiendo (o tomando) Coca-Cola ....nada más fuerte! ¡Sin embargo, debo de estar viendo cosas....a menos que esta botella esté hechizada! (o esté embrujada)

typo..bebiendo..mmm 'viendo visiones' doesn't sound good at all, we say 'debo estar viendo cosas' - Pablo064 11 hrs ago

Muchas gracias por tus correcciones, Pablo

Some corrections and help given by my native Spanish teacher in my class yesterday evening: 1. de (nstead of original 'en') la foto. 2. Help with constructing sentence after menos que esta botella esté hechizada! (o esté embrujada)

Editor's note: We think (that) this person may have 'lost their bottle'! (ie: lost their nerve/courage!) lol

Original caption: (SpanishDict)

La persona en la foto está hablando con su mejor amigo, Max: << Te juro que sólo estaba bebieno (o tomando) Coca-Cola ....nada más fuerte! ¡Sin embargo, debo de estar viendo visiones ....a menos que esta botella esté hechizada! (o esté embrujada)

That was my first idea, I had to switch to my backup. :) - bosquederoble, Dec 7, 2015

okay lol sorry I have had to do that on occasions well, it proves that great minds think alike! lol - FELIZ77, Dec 7, 2015

Thank you for the vote, if it was from you, Bosque :) - FELIZ77, Dec 7, 2015

It was indeed. If you ever want to check who just voted for you (it only shows very recent votes): http://www.spanishdict.com/users/activity - bosquederoble, Dec 7, 2015

Like I just did. ;) - jrschenk, Dec 7, 2015

Thanks, Bosque but it doesn't seem to say exactly whose post they voted for, only which thread! - FELIZ77, Dec 7, 2015

Ah but if your post got voted for at the same they voted for that thread, one can make a conclusion. The only time you can't is when two people are voting for the same thread at the same time. - bosquederoble, Dec 7, 2015

typo..bebiendo..mmm 'viendo visiones' doesn't sound good at all, we say 'debo estar viendo cosas' :) - Pablo064, Dec 8, 2015

Answer 13

Ah, yes, "we irritate ourselves until we're sick of it" game is back.

Ah, sí, el juego de 'nos irritamos hasta que estamos harto de eso' está de vuelta.

I like how you think. ;) - jrschenk, Dec 8, 2015

*blushes big time* Thanks #O__O# - Dogboy1000, Dec 8, 2015

(hash tags = blushing big time) - Dogboy1000, Dec 8, 2015
