yahoo

asa cred si eu. acelasi lucru se petrece cu oamenii pe care nu ii poti inghiti, vasele murdare si rautatile nejustificate.
am avut o noua strafulgerare de curiozitate in momentul in care am aflat ca yahoo poate sa insemne si altceva decat prea iubit motor de cautare. iata si despre ce e vorba:


  • a member of a race of brutes in Swift's Gulliver's Travels who have the form and all the vices of humans

  • in the Australian aboriginal language: an evil spirit, which causes great terror; they call it 'Yahoo' or 'Devil-Devil': he lives in the tops of the steepest and rockiest mountains, which are totally inaccessible to all human beings, and comes down at night to seize and run away with men, women or children, whom he eats up, children being his favourite food...

The name... of Yahoo is used to express a bad spirit, or 'Bugaboo', is also common with the aborigines of Van Diem[e]n's Land [Tasmania]..."


cam asa.
