that is cowardice.

Irish are redhead drunks. It can be nice to be a readhead and drunk.

Swedes are descended from pillaging rapist drunkards beserkers with horns on their heads and have banned profesional boxing out of fear for their health in case someone hands them their arses. They also have harsh gun laws because they know that their population would be reduced to zilch if they made guns easy to come by due to their suicidal tendencies mixed with the odd autistic psycopath who would gladly shoot them in their beds.

But since guns are hard to get except for criminals, we must at least kill ourself by pretty tough means.  8)

how, by sticking a bottle of vodka up your arse, and jumping off a one story building?
Misunderstood.

Does "Jump in front of a train" mean anything else than literally that in English?

We learnt most of those expressions in school. But I'm not always sure. Since 1990, I haven't refreshed my English other than through TV, books and the Internet. Do you say "rain cats and dogs" in the US like the Brits do?

But I have noticed, that you write "arse" and I know that even most Brits write "ass" nowadays. How is that?
