what a bizarre sounding language that is.
i've been through that place on the train many times as a kid. the sign carrying the station name was the length of an olympic long jump
is that 4 Ls in a row?
I like that it has gogogo in it
what most people don't know is that the guy who came up with those place names had the mother of all speech impediments

in welsh LL is pronounced like CL in English
so, it's pronounced "clcl", which is still weird
I heard the place's name means something like "the trees beneath the small lake near the church downhill blablabla ... blablabla ... and then on the right side", something along these lines at least...
hehe, nice you "like" it. i love it, too.
Synapsenendknöpfchen (german), which represents the presynaptic part of a synapse (if i got that right).

Expression: Ignotum per æque ignotum
From Latin, meaning "the unknown by the equally unknown", is a form of fallacy in which one attempts to prove something unknown by deducing it from something else which is also not known to be true.
Empire / post-Empire
...not even in wikipedia yet!
Is that some kind of Star Wars reference?
"Post-Empire started appearing in full-force just about everywhere last year while Cee Lo Green’s “Fuck You” gleefully played over the soundtrack. The Kardashians so get it. The cast (and the massive audience) of Jersey Shore gets it. Lady Gaga arriving at the Grammys in an egg gets it, and she gets it while staring at Anderson Cooper (Empire!) and admitting she likes to smoke weed when she writes songs—basically daring him: “What are you gonna do about that, bitch?” Nicki Minaj gets it when she sings “Right Thru Me” and becomes one of her many alter-egos on a red carpet. (Christina Aguilera starring in Burlesque doesn’t get it at all.) Ricky Gervais’s hosting of the Golden Globes got it. Robert Downey Jr., getting pissed off at Gervais, did not. Robert De Niro even got it, subtly ridiculing his career and his lifetime achievement trophy at the same awards show."

I'm totally going to exploit this phrase as much as possible! ...unless that's empire???
Stallone had a chance to get it but unfortunately The Untouchables is just soooo empire!
On his Twitter feed, he defines it in terms of pop culture, as if it were a charticle in a magazine. Post-Empire is Shia LaBeouf, Lady Gaga, Twilight, Trader Joe’s, and Kick-Ass. Empire is Bruce Willis, R.E.M., New York, the Polo Lounge, Veuve Clicquot, “the U.S. reaction to Kick-Ass.”
