I'm not going to say best band to have ever graced this Earth but when I hear a tune of theirs I immediate start toetapping at the very least (Usually a lot more).

They are awesome and I hear they are doing some sort of comeback tour - I don't have the details because I don't want spoiled but I'm hoping new material and still as catchy and relatable Hownos.

How cool would that be?

what was your favorite song ?

[–] KnowsMore (523) 6 years ago

Very, VERY difficult Hownos but this evening I'm going to side with Super Trouper as it mentions my home city in it and that makes it extra special to me.

Plenty of close contenders though!

And what do you think is the correct line?

Dig in the dancing queen
or
Diggin' the dancing queen

I go with 'Diggin''
The other sounds like the poor girl is getting put in the ground😀

I know! Diggin' as in I'm diggin' it! I laugh when I see subtitles or closed-captioning with the dig in thing. "Dig in" makes no sense, but then I see a lot of subtitle mistakes. I always wonder who does the subtitles and where it the process it happens. Do they get a script copy? Maybe some do, but some don't. 🤔

Foreign Movies with subs can be a strange trip too
You just know the subs are wrong and make no sense so you can only wonder what the dialogue really meant

I get plenty of laughs, along with a few eye rolls, at subtitled British series. I swear they were done by some dumb American who isn't proofreading what they wrote. If they did, they'd realize it didn't make sense. 🙄 Context should help them see that.

Context is key with subs
The South Korean movies often have terrible subs...
very hard to riddle out

[–] GlenEllyn (21577) 6 years ago

I think I roll my eyes the most with British fare because it's in English. We can tell when they blew it. Unless the subtitles are done by someone in India with English as a second or third language. Then all bets are off.

Seems likely
Ever been on the phone with a service office based in India?
It is a harrowing experience...you catch about every third word, they are way too polite, you get annoyed and mouthy...
Indian Call Centers are a nightmare

Nightmare indeed. I dread having to call customer service these days. However, some companies have realized their mistake and brought them back home. When my long-time job was off-shored to India I had to help train my Indian replacement. It was a pain trying to explain things to them when they had no cultural equivalent.
