Because all the cool kids are doing it...

Everyone has things they blog about. Everyone has things they don't blog about. Challenge me out of my comfort zone by telling me something I don't blog about, but you'd like to hear about, and I'll write a post about it. Repost in your own journal so that we can all learn more about each other.

I just wanted to say that you've got very nice nickname :) Do you know what does it mean in Polish?

Thanks. I have no idea what it means in Polish, so please enlighten me. I went to Penn State University here in Pennsylvania and that's what the PSU means. Unfortunately, LJ doesn't allow for capitalization, otherwise it would make more sense to everyone. :)

OMG! I just looked it up through a translation program. I'm either a bastard or a scoundrel. Oh my. LOL

Oh - yes, it's one of the meanings, but nowadays this word isn't really offensive (I haven't heard anyone using it like this). Word-for-word (and much nicer) meaning is "dog's brother" ("brat" means "brother" in Polish). It's a kinda pet name for people who like/care about dogs. Many animal rights' associations use this word (for example - this one => http://www.psubraty.pl/index.php?option=com_content&task=view&id=26&Itemid=61)
