1.Why is this site in English?
2.Am I the only one who isn't European?
3.Am I the only one who isn't retarded?
4.Am I the only one who only speaks English?
5.Am I the only one who is completely mad?
6.Am I the only one asking the questions?
(the answer to 6 should be obvious, but with my reasoning for number 3, I expect a lot of people will never guess it in a million years.) (That and playing Dink Smallwood has been proven to cause Brain Rot)

Chop your own wood, and it will warm you twice. 
1.Because most of the internet sites are in English(at least I think so).
2.There are people from USA, New Zealand, and many other countries here.
3.It depends of what you mean by 'retarded'.
4.Most people learn a foreing language at school.
5.For the moment, probably yes, but generally no.
6.Definetly not.

Sometimes i worry,... sometimes I need to calm down... sometimes I am very unpredictable... sometimes it takes some getting used too... I'm kinda weird that way.

There are almost no retarded people here, actually. The ones who are often have the worst spelling, or they post way too much useless crap.

1. With Dink and RTSoft primarily using English, it would be reasonable to expect a fansite dedicated to the company and its game to be in English. English is a common language and is therefore an easy choice. It also helps that the webmaster's native language is English, which would make it a bit silly for him to start a site in another language.

2. No, I am from the U.S., as are many other people. But indeed, there are many Europeans.

3. While some people here seem to exhibit behavioral issues, I have seen no evidence of a mentally retarded Dinker.

4. Probably not. I'm only fluent in English, myself.

5. Probably not.

6. Honky.

1. cuz it is
2. nope.. born and raised californian
3. that's special person, not retarded... I'd say everyone here isnt 'special' but there are a few that try to prove they are
4. No hablo Ingles
5. that's psychologically unstable, not mad... I'd say we are all a little of that, some more than others
6. you are not the only one asking questions, but you are about the only one that makes lists of questions and therefore requiring lists of answers (The Brain Rot claim has not be verified by the Surgeon General)

Since I am a strange, strange *person*, and I have no shame... I shall play the hypocrite and answer my own questions.

1. Most sites are in English, although a fair amount have those little sidebars with all the little flags to click on...

2. No, but sometimes it is fun to think such, because then I can make endless jokes about the US without worrying about getting anyone upset...

3. Of course not, I am also.

4. I guess that it depends on what I mean by this question... I do speak some Spanish and some rather bad and incongruent French and Italian (a little bad German on the side). But really, I cannot speak enough of any of those languages to carry on a intelligent conversation with anyone.
(at least, not without a dictionary in hand.).

5. Of course not, I am also completely mad.... Mwahahahahahaha

6. You know what they say, one should answer but not ask... I guess I failed to do that a long time ago... I have had mind rot for a while... a zombie gave it to me in TES4.

What I meant was don't tell my heart, my achy breaky heart, I just don't think he'd understand. And if you tell my heart, my achy breaky heart, it might blow up and kill this man.

Woo.

I was joking, too-- wait, this is my first post in this topic!

Anyway, people may seem retarded to YOU, but it could be just your opinion about it. Others might think you are a retard, or even someone like Tal... All about opinions.
