    0:10 OH This made me smile so much! You're Amazing!
    7:38 OHH!! Thank you for the Shoutout!!
    Blönduós is pronounced: [blUHn-douws] You got that right, just a slight accent!
    Varmahlíð Is Pronounced: [Varma-Hleeth]
    The Ðð letter (Eth) is pronounced like the "Th" sound in English in words like "This". Not like an "o"
    While the Þþ letter (Thorn) is pronounced like the "Th" sound in words like "Thing"
    Do you notice the difference between "Thing" and This" that is basically "Þing" and "ðis"
    You Pronounced "Borgarnes" Very well!!! Good job
    Reykjavík is Pronounced more like [RAY-kyah-veek]
    Keflavík is supposed to be pronounced like you did, but in my Reykjavík accent I say: [Kebb-la-veek] The F sometimes sound like a very weak B

      @@ZillaBlitzPC Did you know that most people get a certain fact wrong? If you ask this question which country is in Asia and Europe between Russia and Turkey? The most common answer is Russia is in Asia and Turkey is Europe. However that Answer is 100% incorrect. It actually depends on the percentage of where the population lives. 65% of Russians live west of the Ural mountains which crosses the entire country ending at the Black Sea makes Russia Europe even though 75% of it's land is in Asia. Turkey is Asia because 55% live west of the channel that connects the Black Sea to the Mediteranea Sea. that means Cyprus is also Asia( it the island that is shape like a guitar

    @samcattell1150 Рік тому +1

    I drive through roadblocks too. The problem is that the satnav is old school so it doesn't find alternate routes when there are accidents, it just wants to make you u-turn back to your original route which often put you back behind the black.
    Once I got stuck behind a helicopter on a narrow road and had to call a tow track to allow me to escape

    • @ZillaBlitzPC
      @ZillaBlitzPC  Рік тому +1

      Yeah, I realize I can turn the roadblocks off, but I actually like that rush of adrenaline that comes with approaching one at 60mph and trying to figure out a way around. I've yet to get hopelessly stuck behind one, and I'm okay with using a tow truck if at some point I hit one I can't get by. I know you can restart the game to change the type of roadblock, which I think can help, but I'm not sure I'd do it.

      Yes, I actually do use that a good bit on the long stretches. I'm not in the habit of using it when it looks like the speed will keep changing, and I think sometimes the speed limit change/busted for speeding thing gets me. I need to be quicker, faster, better! :)

    My personal opinion of ETS not making the Russian DLC was dumb, this game is for entertainment, they should stay politically neutral, what’s happening over there is bad, but its political, and if you ask some people our president is not doing good things in there eyes either. But why punish the whole country and the game players for what a one crazy leader person is doing.
    As for what I like to listen to when I do a lot of driving, especially since I drive for a living, I like to listen to talk show on sirusxm called land line now which is about the trucking industry, or listen to the classic radio shows like gun smoke or Johnny Dollar or the shadow. And if I’m tired I just play some upbeat music.

    • @ZillaBlitzPC
      @ZillaBlitzPC  Рік тому +1

      Thanks for sharing your thoughts on the Russia DLC and for your listening options. That Land Line talk show sounds interesting, and listening to classic radio shows is an awesome idea! I bet that is a lot of fun. That's a great idea, actually. I might try that.
