I have officially added Klingon to the list of languages I want to learn.

What? A geek, you say?

*chuckle* The direst insult in the Klingon tongue, it translates roughly as Your mother has a smooth forehead!. That single phrase has caused some of the worst blood feuds the galaxy has ever seen... and that -includes- the Borg and the Dominion war; the Klingons are quite serious about the lobsters on their heads...

*laugh!* That is hysterical!! Who would have thought smooth foreheads were such a social faux pas!

Now that I've given myself a headach trying to conjugate a bloody vowel for an hour (and probably screwing it up, too), I'm really hoping that I didn't from the outset mistranslate your response. *scratches her head* This is what my feeble abilities pulled from that:
You speak evil of my blood!! Now you die like a dog!!!

And then off I went on a hunt for some sort of clue on how to put together a response. Someday I'll be able to afford the books and tapes, and actually have a clue.
