Oh I cried alright. I just learnt to laugh again.

PS: Which is the correct word in the above sentence; 'learnt' or 'learned'?
The correct past participle is "learnt" but people are becoming stupid these days, so many verbs with irregular past participles are being regularised. So "learned" is technically correct, but I find it a bit clumsy ;)

Me too ! I am scared to death. I could sit in the same room as three snakes, but a bee? FUCK NO.
When death faces you, show no fear! Tell it "fuck you, I was gonna die anyway'! Even death will die one day.
no i don't feel like that :stuckup:
Fine.

That's what I thought too. It's like learnt is the Old Testament, and learned is the New T. :sergio:
