   Yep, that's the first thing that came to mind for me too. It's a Brit thing I guess.

   I don't really understand how this comment relates to anyone but you. Nerding on a computer and doing outdoor things are not mutually exclusive. They may be for you, but that's... well... you.

    Possibly a Britishism, like you say. Personally I've never heard the 'S' pronounced here. "Coo du grar" Edit : Just remembered this scene from Kill Bill where Michael Madsen says it : https://getyarn.io&#

    'Amiga' is a pretty broad brush. Which ones in particular?
